Paul Batierun Yelifari born May 23rd, 2007
Here is our new sweet little boy Paul who was born on May 23rd. He weighed in at 6lb. 11oz. and 19 1/2 in. long. He surprised us by coming a little early by three weeks, but it seems he wanted to get here to join all of us when Great Grandpa and Great Grandma came to visit that same week and the whole extended family showed up. Great Grandpa's name is Paul and that is who he is named after and so it seems he wanted to come to meet him. His middle name is Daddy's middle name and so he is named after two good men. He is a sweet boy and we all love him so much.
For all of you who are not only surprised that Paul came early, but didn't even know he was yet on the way we say "Surprise!" I haven't been in touch too well with many of you. This pregnancy seems to have been a bit harder on me, but it was sure wonderful to see Paul and you always know that it is worth it. We are all doing alright and think of all of you often. Hopefully I will be able to update this blog better than in the past. We have so much we would love to share with you. We love you all so much and here are a few more pictures of the kids and Dad and Grandma with baby Paul. Love you all.

Dad brought Abe and Adam to the hospital the next morning to meet their new brother.
There is Paul not even a day old yet. Adam wanted to touch him and say hello.
Grandma and Paul see each other for the first time.
Katie finally gets to hold Paul who she had been anxiously awaiting. She sure loves him so.
All the kids gather round to see the baby at home. He is getting some sun time.
Here we are at home giving Paul a bath.
More to come soon from the pictures that others took once I get them.
Take care till then.
