Elijah is 1 week old

Elijah, doing what he does best. I find myself calling him Joshua on accident. I never called Joshua by his brother's name, Ethan. Joshua and Elijah sound so similar. Both are Biblical names, and each have three syllables, each have a fricative consonants in the middle, and each end in the sound "-ah." I have to really think before I say his name.

Elijah, Day 3

The walls of Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines are covered with huge, gorgeous photographs of newborns who graced the hospital's nursery. I was inspired and took this photo today. I need to look into getting an external flash!
