You may remember a while back when I told you about all the new babies that are expected this year to my friends and family. Well, Eli Zannis has come about 7 weeks early. Eli is my step sister Lindsay and her husband JC's new little boy. As I understand it, Lindsay went in for a scheduled doctors appointment and because her blood pressure was high they decided it would be best to induce labor. They diagnosed her with pre-eclampsia and labor began. He was born Monday night (May 19th) and wieghed in at 2lbs. 3oz. His lungs are strong and he is doing very well. Lindsay and JC are expected to go home tomorrow, while Eli has to stay for a little longer.
JC's sister, Rachel Callahan, has been very good at keeping everyone posted on how the family is doing at http://rachelzcallahan.blogspot.com/. She has also posted several pictures and a couple of videos. Here is one of her pictures of sweet, sweet baby Eli.

Isn't he sweet? I can't wait to meet our newest nephew in person. Please pray that this new little family will get stronger and transition well into this new phase of their life.
Congratulations Lindsay and JC.
