It's a Boy!

April Fool's
She is definitely a girl.

We welcomed Elia Marie Canfield into the world on April 1st at 5:29 PM. She was due on March 27th so for fear of her getting too big, I was induced. Labor actually went better than I thought it would. I had heard some horror stories! She ended up being 8 pounds 7 ounces and 21 inches. She has long feet and fingers and I think she will be tall. She came out doing a hilarious thing with her mouth and constantly sticking her tongue out. She rarely cried and we are counting our blessings and hoping that it will stay that way. Her eyes were open right away and they are a slate blue for now. That will probably change. Everyone is surprised by her FULL head of hair. We are just in awe of her of course.

Josh is so proud and instantly fell in love with her. He is really a natural with her. I love to see the two of them together.
