She's Here!

[ste_noni]

Baby Ellie (aka Elizabeth Lyndsey) arrived Saturday at 5:29 pm. She weighed 6 lbs, 8 oz and was 19 inches long. She arrived 11 days early and is doing great. Joe arrived back here almost exactly 48 hours after her arrival.

I'm working on writing up more details, but for now, here are some pictures.

She's so beautiful! I love the second picture of the two of you.

And her stats are cracking me up. Lilly was 11 days early, 6lbs, 8oz, and 18 3/4". We must have been working from the same baby template!

That's so funny. You know, early on Saturday morning, I posted a comment about how cute Lilly was. I was having early contractions and I thought looking at cute baby pictures might make me feel good. So, Lilly was my early labor inspiration. Little did I know how much they would have in common.

So glad Joe made it home safe and sound! Amy and I loved getting to see you, meet your mom, and hold Ellie. We'll have to do lunch in P-boro, as discussed.

She's so lovely! (Not unexpected, given her parents -- only, she's even MORE lovely than that!) And you and Joe look so incredibly happy -- with each other *and* with her. I'm all thrilled and teared-up for the whole lot of you.

You all look so full of joy! She's adorable. Congrats.

Awww, congrats! Sorry she got there before Joe, but better that than after he left, yeah? :)

She's just beautiful, and the rest of you are just radiant. What a wonderful, gorgeous family.
