Ellis is four weeks old!

In celebration of Ellis's four week birthday, here are some more of our favorite pictures from the past month.



Ellis has already figured out how to hold her own pacifier...most of the time. The duck attached to it helps.














Her grandmother Jan holding her for the first time. Ellis will pick out names for all her grandparents someday soon. This was several weeks ago, so Ellis still had lots of swelling in her face at that time.












Her grandfather Russell holding her for the first time. She was so comfortable she took a nap.















Auntie Steph visiting, when Ellis was still in the large pod with lots of other babies.















Ellis looking adorable, me looking exhausted. Pretty typical these days. ;)














Greg holding our baby's hand. She has my long fingers and fingernails.


















Auntie Ally made us coordinating bracelets! Too cute!















Ellis's awesome nurses give her little certificates for each new accomplishment. She is getting quite a collection.











We are so proud of our tough little girl! We can't wait to see what the next month brings.
