Ben and I are so happy to announce that our baby girl has finally arrived! After a total of 41 weeks and 3 days that included 7 days of contractions, 14 hours of labor and finally a c-section, our little angel made her entrance.
Elyse Matilda entered the world at 12:02 am on 10/9/2010. She weighed 7 lbs 8 oz and measured 21 inches long.
She is the most beautiful most precious little angel and still can't believe that our little baby is finally here for us to hold in her arms. We spent 4 days in the hospital and all the nurses and staff were so wonderful and took care of us beautifully. It was nice to get some much needed practice changing diapers, breast feeding, and general care. We returned home on Monday and Elyse continues to eat and sleep very well...6-7 hours straight at night giving Mom and Dad some much needed rest!
Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes, thoughts, and prayers from all of her family and friends. We are so lucky that everyone loves her so much. Ben and I look forward to the next chapter of our lives.
