Elwood's Birth Story

Our blog is changing from a travel blog to a more of a life blog.  Elwood coming into our lives has been the single most amazing, important, and beautiful thing either one of us has every experienced.  It is what our life is right now.  Soon, El will be traveling with us experiencing new places and people, and we will share that when the time comes.  And although he wont remember, these experiences will influence his outlooks on life and the man he will eventually become.  However, our days as of now are filled with nursing, napping, diaper changing, cuddling, and staring at this beautiful child that Conor and I created.  We couldn't be happier.  Our life has forever changed in the most positive way possible.  I want to share the story of Elwood's birth for me so I can remember all the wonderful details, and for the people in my life that care to know about it.  So, this is the story of Elwood's birth, full of lots of details and probably run-on sentences.  Please skip if you are not interested.
