President Elliot Kiki Cujo Robert Boudreaux Is Here!

February 22nd, 2011

We have a baby, folks. Elliot Robert (Robert is my father, older brother’s name) was born at 8:16 PM on February 21st. He’s 8 pounds, 12 ounces–an entire pound heavier than his big brother.

He’s amazing. He’s doing well. I’m so happy for my family.

I will have more details soon! The labor was much easier than the last one. I’m feeling pretty great too.

I’m still in the hospital and will be until tomorrow (Wednesday). I’m writing this from a bed overlooking the East River and Roosevelt Island, preparing to watch a NYC rush hour take place.

Life is pretty great at the moment. It’ll get even better once I have breakfast! I’m starving!!

More soon! Pics too.

    I’m glad labor was easier. If there were justice in the universe, any woman who carries a baby for 42 weeks would be blessed with an easy labor!

    Beautiful name, too!
