Ellie has Arrived!

its amazing that this is was inside me!

Grandma and grandpa Lee helped with the kids while Ellie was born
Our first family photo... so cute
4 little kids 3 girls to 1 boy
Ellie Kay
her "home from the hospital" outfit
the girls
Dad, Carter and Ellie. Carter was so soft with her
well, here are the much awaited pictures, i am so cute in all of them, don't mind the extremely "swollen" face of mine, they had to pump me nice an full of pitocin afterward because i hemorrhage (is that TMI?) so i pack the water weight on a few extra weeks.

It was a nice easy birth, at the hospital they said she is "determined" meaning a cranky baby, but ever since getting home she has fallen into suit with our others. she sleeps all the time, barely cries and eats really well. lets hope it sticks! shes pretty cute in my book. she has the longest fingers and toes, and is all bone, no fat, I'll work on that! Carter loves her, and Kailey wont let her down! today i had to threaten taken away Ellie time, meaning she can't hold her, if she didn't let me do her hair without whining. it worked! as I write this Ellie is crying, that about right too isn't it?
