Ellie entered the world on Tuesday, October 22, 2013 at 9:19 am. She weighed 7 pounds 13 ounces and was 20 inches long. Once again, Tiffany was amazing. She is so strong and watching her give birth was such a beautiful experience. I'll never forget that day. Thankfully, all went well and both she and Ellie are doing well.
Hayden came to the hospital with Nan and Pappy and Pop-Pop to meet Ellie. He doesn't really comprehend that he has a sister, so he was more interested in the buttons on the bed and the "laundry" all around. He's so sweet, though. He gave her a kiss and Nan and Pappy taught him to say "Ellie is pretty".
All of the family have headed back home, and Nan and Pappy took Hayden with them so we could have a quiet couple of days with Ellie. It's been so nice to be able to just tend to mom and baby. My favorite moments are when I get to lay down with the baby on my chest, just listening to her breathe. Ellie sleeps almost all of the time and we have to keep her awake to get through a whole feeding. What a difference from Hayden! He would be ready to chow any time any place. We look forward to having Hayden back home to meet Ellie and be a big brother. We can't wait for everyone to get to meet her!
