aaron kelly

I am not sure why I have taken so long with this post. I blame it on not having pictures easily accessible but I know it is sheer laziness.

Aaron was born on March 16th, almost 2 weeks early. We planned it that way so Jake could be there. The Friday before I had an ultrasound to check size and fluid levels. His weight was estimated at just over 7 pounds. I was shocked when he actually weighed in at 9lbs. 6oz. He is all torso, neck, and cheeks. Seriously, look at the pictures.

The kids smother him all day with kisses, prodding, and haphazard jostling. I wasn't sure how Ruben would react to him but he digs the little man.


Isaac is not satisfied until he gives him "a smell and a kiss". He loves Aaron's smell; but who doesn't love that newborn baby scent? Evann thinks he is hers. Jacob "misses that little guy" when he's off at school. I am pleased that everyone has welcomed him.
