Elijah Jacob Reuben






Little Elijah...a few hours old

Welcome Baby #5




Since its been months since i've posted..thought i'd still do the official Announcement...

We are grateful to the Lord for his grace and mercy at the safe arrival of our new baby!
Baby Blessing number 5......(Drumroll)......

Welcome

"ELIJAH JACOB REUBEN DUNN"
born August 9, 2007 @ 3:20 a.m
weighing 5 lbs 4.5 ounces
born 4 weeks premature
18 1/2 inches long

We were blessed that Elijah had no complications for being so early and upon mommy and daddy's persistence and prayers he was able to stay with momma and not go to the NICU.
God worked mightily and gave us the desires of our hearts of keeping him under our close care and for that i am so thankful. Kangaroo Kare really helped immediately after his arrival and he latched on within the hour!
He is now almost 4 months old and has grown tremendously!
more pics to follow....

Forgotten ...until now!

In the hustle and bustle of life with a newborn and 4 other children it has been overwhelmingly busy!...i honestly forgot about this blog....sounds silly i know but it happens.
The last post i wrote i was still pregnant and patiently waiting for little one to arrive..since then HE has! yes...thats right...we had a precious little BOY!
I will post some early pics of him and all his details and then try update you all with the rest!
