Our little Ellie joined the Jones family on Friday May 28th at 1:18pm. She weighed 6 pounds 4 ounces at birth and has a head full of dark hair. She probably has more hair right now than Riley has. So far she is eating great and sleeping really well. We arrived home from the hospital Sunday afternoon and have since begun the process of incorporating Ellie into our life. Riley still doesn't know what to think of this little person that squeaks and cries but he is interested in her and even wanted to give her her bottle this morning. I think he will be a wonderful big brother.
This is one of the first pictures in the hospital with our wonderful midwife Cheri. Ellie decided to come really quick after Cheri broke my water at 12:15. She went to lunch with her daughter and we had to call and interrupt that lunch because Ellie was ready to come by 12:45. Cheri made it through traffic and back to the hospital just in time to deliver Ellie.
A few hours after Ellie was born we caught her sucking her middle finger. This is something Griff did as a baby too we are told. Since then she just likes to suck any finger or fist she can get in her mouth. :-)
All dolled up and ready to go home. It is hard to believe Riley was even smaller in this carseat.
Ellie, waving everyone a friendly hello after her first night at home.
And here is a cute picture of Riley this morning while he was brushing his teeth with Daddy. We are really enjoying being a family of four.
