There’s a new Yoder in the 3rd District.
U.S. Rep. Kevin Yoder, R-3rd Dist., and his wife Brooke have announced that they welcomed a new member of their family, Eloise Jane, into the world on Monday morning.
The baby’s name was inspired by two of her great-grandmothers, according to an announcement. She was born at 11 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 2, at Shawnee Mission Medical Center. The new baby was 21 and ¼ inches long and weighed 7 pounds and 13 ounces.
Both mother and baby are healthy and resting at home in Overland Park. On Wednesday, Rep. Yoder issued this statement:
“Brooke and I could not be happier to announce the addition of Eloise Jane to our family and Caroline is thrilled to be a big sister. We want to thank all of the great health care providers at Shawnee Mission Medical Center who helped deliver her in good health. Our own little slugger is truly a blessing and we were thrilled she was brought into a world where the Royals are World Champions.”
Congressman Yoder and Brooke now have two daughters, Caroline Lucille and Eloise Jane.
