Its a BOY!

We are pleased to announce that Elliot came into the world on April 4th at 4:07am. Weighing 7lb 15oz and 20in long.
The birth story is pretty short and sweet. I started having contractions at 1:30am, we left for the hospital around 2:30, and I started pushing at 4:02am and 5 min later Elliot was here!
It could not have worked out better that Anthony was already sleeping over at Grandma and Grandpa Kopps house because he was going to an Easter Egg Hunt the next day. Anthony had a long day but he did pretty good. He came up to meet his brother and still had time to fit the easter egg hunt in. Thank you to all of our family that watched Anthony while we were at the hospital.
