Rolly Rolly

Eloise has been rolling tummy to back for a while now. She was more like Edison and started doing it pretty early on. Now I can't get her to have tummy time because she just flips herself over. I was trying to get this on video this morning after she rolled 4 or 5 times and of course she didn't do it for the camera. However, she did smile and that's cute enough for a video.

Eddie and Ellie

At first he wasn't quite sure what he thought about her. He pretty much refused to look at her or me at the hospital but it didn't take long once we were home for him to become quite enamored. He loves to kiss her, rub her head, sit by her and hold her.

He pulled his horse up to the swing just to "watch".

I came back and found a bridge sitting on her. I explained that the bridge was too heavy so he remedied the situation by putting a piece of track on her tray.

He is trying to teach her about the sea creatures on the bouncy.

Eloise Mae

Eloise Mae was born today, March 15th, at 4:09 p.m. She was 7 lbs. 15 oz. and 20 inches long. Her delivery was more of a challenge than expected, but Amanda and baby Ellie Mae are doing fine. She has thin brown hair, dark blue eyes (for now), and rosy pink skin. We can't tell who she looks like yet, but she's a beautiful baby anyway. Here are some pictures from today.

Lots of snow!
