Gabriel Cheng-Yi (承義) Yuen is here! He was born on Wednesday, June 6, 2012 at 8:24 pm. He was 9 pounds 3 oz, and 22 inches long! Karina had been the bigger baby so far and Gabriel beat her by a pound. He's also 2 inches longer as well. His middle name (i.e. Chinese name) means "receiving justice or righteousness".
While Emily and Gabriel were at the hospital, Emily's parents stayed at home with the girls and Elvin shuttled back and forth. Since the delivery went so smoothly, mom and baby were able to come home by Friday. We are now all home and developing a new routine. Gabriel is eating well and besides a mild case of jaundice, is doing great.
The girls have adjusted well to having a new baby in the house. While Eliana loves her new baby brother, she also has alot of emotions going on inside of her that is making her a little more sensitive than usual. Karina is also fascinated with the baby but doesn't understand why sometimes mommy is holding the baby instead of her. But overall, they love their baby brother and are very doting big sisters.
