ELLA Has arrived!





















Hello Everyone!
Well our world has totally changed, our sweet girl Ella Jane arrived Monday November 17th at 8:50pm via C-section. She weighed in at 8lbs 13oz, 20.5 inches long! We have no idea what life was like without her or how we could love someone so much. She is our joy! So far we are falling into a good routine every 2-3hours for feeding and sleeping. We are tired but so happy. We are so  lucky to have Grammy Sweeney here to help, the extra hands are great as I am still recovering from C-section. But have to say I am feeling pretty well, other than tired. I stayed at the hospital through Thursday so this weekend it was great to get back in our own bed! Major bummer is I can't drive for 2 weeks, but that is OK hibernating with our little sweetie is wonderful. Jake had this past week off, but back to work today. But at least it is a holiday week and he will have Thursday and Friday off, so nice 4-day weekend. We are going to Stephanie's house for dinner- should be yummy! I am just about starving all the time from the breast feeding so I am really looking forward to it! 
Anyway I better get back to my sweet girl- she is enjoying her vibrating chair right now! But here are a few pics to tide you all over. More to come I am sure! Love to all, Sheila, Jake and Ella Jane xoxo
