Eli's Entourage

We have had so much support the past few weeks, and we are so lucky to have such wonderful family and friends.  Everybody has gone above and beyond anything we could ever imagine.Thank you for all of the cards, meals, and gifts.  Eli is one lucky boy! 
*Side note - I forgot to get pictures with Liz/Tim Heyl and Kristen/Ryan Floyd from our Missional Community group - You have to come back and visit again!! Also, thank you to Cara/Colton DeLatin for our Central Market groceries/meals.  Colton is Derek's Childhood best friend that lives in Houston.  Eli cannot wait to meet you!!

  Aunt Ali and Uncle Eric were already on their way down for a planned trip to Fredericksburg.  Perfect timing!! Love that they were able to hang out when he was born and when we were discharged.  Plus a huge thanks to my sister for being my first lactation nurse - ha! ( I think she found her new calling).

 Uncle Kyloo was able to come down and introduce TMNT to Eli!  The stuffed "Leonardo"(or whoever orange is) was Eli's Christmas gift from Kyle.  Let's just say Kyle is excited to have another boy in the family :)

My Aunt Melinda and Cousin Julia drove in from Houston for a surprise visit.  I was not expecting this at all - so much fun!

 Aunt Leah - Derek's sister - drove in from Dallas.  I think Eli looks pretty content in her arms :)
