Ella Enchanting!

We're in love! Our little princess has arrived and she IS enchanting! While she took her sweet time making her appearance yesterday, she's worth every minute of waiting-room time that we spent in anticipation of her arrival.

Finally, at about 11:30 last night, Ella made her grand entrance into this big old world.  Weighing in at 8 lbs, 12 oz and 19 and 1/2 inches long, she's a pudge-ball of sweetness. With ten family members stuffed into that hospital room, all wanting their moment with her, it was tough to get much hands-on time.  But that will come later! For now, I have picutres...

By the way, I'm gonna rock this grandma thing! :)




Sweet dreams in Mama's arms! Ella is the spitting-image of her mom.



Proud Daddy!
