She is Here!

God has blessed us with a healthy, beautiful daughter.  Ella Grace was born December 20th at 1:38pm.  She weighed 9.1 lbs and is 21 1/4 in. long.  We are resting and recuperating and enjoying this new little girl's presence in our family.

Just minutes after she was born

Thankfully, my parents were still here when she decided to make her grand entrance.  My Mom was a wonderful help to us as we waited and waited for her to come during those 12 days that I was overdue.

Sweet bundle!

Christmas at Seth's parent's house.

Aunt Kari made this tutu for Ella and my Mom made the headband.  Adorable.

Jack has been a great brother.  He asks about Ella often and gives her lots of kisses on her head.

Happy New Years!  I know I am looking forward to 2012!
