Welcome to the World, Elisha Lewis Xavier Scalf

Arriving at 1:45 am, Saturday July 12th, was our third child, and second son. His name is Elisha Lewis Xavier Scalf. Why the name? Elisha, because he received a double portion. Lewis, my Great Grandmother's maiden name. Xavier, We just thought the name was cool. So, Welcome to the world Eli.

Weight: 9lbs 15.7 ounces ( Yes, that is a 10 pound baby)


Length: Currently unknown.

Child Birth: Natural (No medications at all!! Praise God for His wonderful provision!!)

Bea's Current Health: Well. She is having a sandwich and some Pretzels. She worked very hard for this.

Eli's Current Health: Struggling a bit. He took a big gulp of Amniotic Fluid with his first breath, and he is working through that.

My Health: Tired, very tired.

Thomas and Chelsea (My niece) were a huge help!!. Thomas got to help me cut the cord. He thought that was just great. He got what he prayed for. A baby brother. God always answers prayers!



Well, it is close to time to go to sleep, so good night for now. More on Elisha in the later morning hours.
