She's here!

We are pleased to announce the arrival of Ellie Grace Thurgood (sorry all that voted for Ella). She joined us wednesday at 2:27 p.m. weighed 6 lbs 8 oz and is 19 inches long. Labor was an awesome 5 hours from start of pitocin to delivery (which was 2 pushes), it was amazing. She is super healthy and doing really well. I bleed more than I should have and had to stay longer than I would have liked at the hospital to take meds to slow the bleeding, but all is well. Here are some pictures of our little beauty.

She is soooooo cute. She has lots of dark hair like Kaylee did when she was born. Congratulations to you and your family. Don't feel bad about missing grandmother's funeral. Andrew can't go either. She'll understand. We love you guys. I'm glad all is well.
