So, after 30 hours of labor it ended in a c-section. Ella arrived at 8:59 AM on February 2nd, she weighed in at 7 lbs 11 oz and was 20 3/4" long. She has a FULL head of hair and is just adorable! Here are some of our favorite pictures so far!
Here she is at about 5 minutes old, eyes open and alert:
Here is Brad holding her once we got back to our L&D room, she was about an hour and a half old:
Here I am able to actually hold her for the first time without people around:
And here she's sleeping once we got to our recovery room, she's about 4 hours old here:
In about 10 minutes I have to get an antibiotic to help me from getting and infection at my incision. It's cool, the stitches are all internal and they just glued the outside, you can't even really see it. I am just now starting to be able to feel a little bit of pain at the incision site so it's probably about time to ask for a pain reliever of some sort.
Any way, there's my update. I'll update more when we have more time.

Congrats, she's adorable! I'm excited now for you to settle into motherhood. It's a frustrating, but very rewarding experience. :)
I love her.
