Baby Eli

Baby Eli was born this morning about 11AM. When I left he had not yet been weighed, but the kid is big (the midwife guessed 9+ pounds). He's pure Rake, darling and healthy. Dawn and Cam make a terrific labor team, and Dawn did so well. The atmosphere was peaceful, and relaxed, and the midwives and doula were amazing. I think the experience was everything she hoped it would be. Here are some pics:
