First Post

Now that I've ventured into motherhood, I feel responsible to create an obligatory family blog.  What is next?  Facebook?  Skype?  Who knows where this might take me.

Really, now that we are plus one munchkin, I wanted to be able to share our adventures and pictures with all of our family and friends.  So here goes...my first "post."  

Ellis will be 6 weeks old on Thursday and time has just flown by!  Here is a quick recap of her life experiences so far...

12/22/11 - Ellis Claire arrived!  After a long and stressful labor, she was finally here.  Praise the Lord for this little miracle!  Scot nearly had a heart attack a few times (I think that he needed an epidural) but we all survived.  


Did I mention that it was stressful?


Proud Daddy!


It's a girl!  She has truly captured our hearts from day one.

Ellis's First Christmas....we got released from the hospital on Christmas Day and had our families over to celebrate.  We were able to hang her "first Christmas" ornament just in time!


Granny, meet Ellis.  Ellis, meet Granny.



The grandparents' favorite present.



HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Back in the day, Scot and I used to throw a big party.  Well, this year I think we were in bed by 10 p.m. We did manage to ring in the new year with Dick Clark during a late night feeding.  Here is a snapshot of our big night.


Finally, here are a few more pics from the last few weeks...ah, what a precious face!
