Introducing, Miss Ella Catherine Carnes...

We all came home from the hospital today - whoohoo!  Very happy to be done with all the late night nursing visits and gross hospital food.  It's very different being a patient in the hospital for once and I don't think I like it very much, haha.   I won't bore you with all the details but we had an uneventful stay and are all VERY happy to finally be home! Ella is doing great - she got good grades on her hearing test, is getting the hang of the whole feeding thing and her pediatrician says she is as healthy as they come :) So, without further ado...here are a few (or maybe more than a few) pictures of Ella's first couple of days: 

Leaving for the hospital (you'll have to excuse the appearance, it was 4:30 AM)


Hanging out in our Labor and Delivery room.  Eagerly anticipating Ella's arrival!

Here she is!!  Welcome to the world :)

Well, that's probably enough for now.  Not to worry - there will be tons more to follow!  Coming soon...video of Maggie and Ella's first meeting.  That is, if I can figure out how to upload the video to the blog. 

Thanks to everyone who has left us phone messages, texts, facebook messages, etc!  We are so blessed and appreciate all the well wishes.  We promise to get back in touch with everyone just as soon as we get settled in!
