She made an early "urgent" appearance. I wasn't used to this kind of pregnancy, delivery, or having a baby stuck in the nursery on an IV. It broke my heart and left me wondering if I did something wrong and caused her all these troubles. So I prayed, alot, and alot of other people prayed, alot. And it all turned out just wonderful. She is a huge (literally) blessing to our family and we love her so much. I was trying to remember this morning what life was like before Ella, it wasn't nearly as much fun. She has, in her 17 days, taught both my kids about being helpers for Mom and Dad, they are learning patience, and they are wonderful siblings. They make me so proud!

Just the three of us! Yep I look exhausted, I was. But I was so relieved she was here.

| Daddy was so nervous, definately the most nerve wracking delivery. I am amazed at how he can be so calm when someone else is having a medical emergency, but when it is me or one of his babies he is like anyone else - a wreck! |

Big Brother is so proud!

| Yes, she has enough chins and cheeks for everyone! But we love them all. |
