It's been a busy two days but I finally have a chance to introduce my new niece! Ellie Jade was born yesterday, October 20th at 12:47pm. 6 pounds, 15 ounces, 19 and a half inches long. She is absolutely gorgeous and the general consensus is that she seems to take after Shannon and her side so far. My first thought was that she has very long lashes!
We've had Bree staying with us the past couple of nights. We took a picture of her just before leaving for the hospital yesterday to meet her baby sister... She was very excited! Driving in the car she said, "Grandma Karen, is baby sister still in mommy's tummy?" Mom told her no, she isn't. Then Bree said, "Grandma Karen, honk your horn!!" She also said, "I'm a really REALLY big sister now!"
The family in the waiting room.
Bryan came out to take Bryanna in so she could meet Ellie first. The rest of us waited impatiently for the exact 6 minutes that Bryan told us to (Renee timed it) and then followed.
A big yawn!
Bree will make a great big sister. She's been a big cousin for 2 years and has had lots of practice! Jhett will be a good big cousin, too. He's only 8 months older than Ellie and has lots of practice at baby stuff, too, like... Well, just read his shirt. 
Jhett was very excited to meet his new baby cousin!
Bree had some questions about her mommy being "at the doctor".
Bree's Grandpa Dave and Grandma Sue held her up for a good view of "Baby Elwie".
Auntie Jessica and Uncle Kevin with their new niece.
Jhett wasn't sure what to think of his daddy holding another baby.
Ellie's daddy Bryan showed Uncle Jeff her full head of beautiful dark hair.
Bree liked to tell everyone, "That's my baby Elwie!"
Who wouldn't be this exhausted after such a big first day?
