It was only a month ago that Eliana entered our family's lives. 
We received two emails yesterday. First, a recent one from her father titled "Obama Baby," showing how well she fills the onesie we sent. She now weighs ten pounds--up two since birth.
The other email contained earlier photos taken by our daughter-in-law in August when Eliana was a few days old. Zach, her six-year-old brother is very positive and gentle with babies--something learned when his sister Zoe was born three years ago.
Eliana has a strong resemblence to how Zach looked as an infant--the dark hair, very round body. Zoe too looked much like him in the beginning. Everyone thought she'd continue that way but she is more petite and very blond now, like her Dad as a child.

Congratulations on the new family member! The onesie is awesome.
