Introducing Story Elias Elfman


Just a few weeks after welcoming her first baby, Jenna Elfman introduces him to us in this week OK! Magazine.

Story Elias, was born on July 23 in Los Angeles weighing in at 7 lbs. 2 oz.

Jenna talks about arriving at the name and her quest to lose the baby weight:

“In September 2006, just before we started trying to conceive, Bodhi turned to me in bed and said, ‘How about Story Elias?’ I just loved it.”

Jenna’s husband Bodhi added, “I just think ‘story’ is a great word. What’s better than a great story?”

A classically trained ballet dancer, Jenna says she gained 50 pounds during her pregnancy but that it’s coming off quickly with the help of a treadmill and five-pound arm weights.

“I weighed 188, I’m normally 130,” she tells the mag. “It’s been shedding really fast.”

They couple also reveals the baby gift they received from star pals, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes: “They got us a beautiful Moses basket filled with yummy blankets, which we use every day.”
