The other night Ellie decided to be awake for an hour and a half: from 3:45-5:15am. She was content but wide-eyed. I was trying to kill some time and so I snapped a few low quality photos on my iphone! Here they are!

Ellie is 2 months old!

Sorry for not being better about posting updates on Ellie! She is now 2 months old (where does the time go?) and is 10 lbs 4 oz, 22" long. She has great chubby cheeks and is a sweet, easy baby! She sleeps fairly well at night and Mommy's biggest success is that ALL THREE GIRLS NAP AT THE SAME TIME IN THE AFTERNOON! I am totally giddy about this. We are in love with our Ellie Kate and she has fit into our family perfectly. The "big girls" love their little sister and are a huge help to Mommy. Ellie coasted through the holidays totally un-phased by the chaos around her. She was able to meet lots of family and was hardly ever put down! Now if we could just get rid of her nasty little cold! Poor baby. Our whole family has passed it around. I'll try to be better about posting photos of her- she is growing and changing so fast!

Ellie Kate is 1 month old!

Our little Ellie is one month old today! Time flies when you have an easy newborn. She is a piece of cake! We love every minute with her and look forward to what the next months will bring...but we hope they don't go too fast!

Ellie 1 month!

Ellie at 2+ weeks!

This past week has been a smooth one...Ellie has fit in perfectly and is so content to just sleep or to just quietly observe our household's crazy happenings that we are shaking our heads in disbelief! We've never had a baby like this! She is sleeping much better at night and gets up about every three hours to feed, burp, poop and then goes back down. She is very tolerant of her big sisters and LOVES to lay in Lorelei's arms as she sings songs to her from the Disney movies. Charlotte has been holding Ellie more too if only for a few seconds. Ellie is starting to get a lot stronger and holds her head up quite well and turns towards our voices and reacts to our movements. Today was her due date...November 17th, so as of today she is officially "fully baked"! We are having lots of fun with her and are so blessed to have three beautiful little girls in our life.

Halloween 2010!

Here are photos of the girls on Halloween this year! Matt and I were trying to get home from the hospital with Ellie to see some of the festivities. The girls enjoyed their night of trick-or-treating with family and looked adorable too!
