Perfection...

Our little Eli David Goates arrived on April 24th at 6:38 PM and he's absolutely perfect. He weighed in at 8lbs 5 oz, and 21 inches long and did I mention how perfect he is?

Even after four pregnancies and deliveries, it's so hard to describe the flood of emotions that come when I finally get to meet this beautiful little person that the Lord has entrusted to me as a mother. The perfect love you have for them and the perfect love and trust that they immediately give you...there are no words. How blessed I feel to have this experience in this life.

Here are a few of the highlights from Eli's birth day -
