He's Here!!!




I went in for my 38 week appointment yesterday. I left with a baby! Surprise! Dr. Redden decided that my blood pressure was too risky. So they induced me, and seven hours later Jack arrived. He's beautiful, weighing 6 pounds 14 ounces and measuring 19 3/4 inches. 

Grandma and Grandpa Seaton were waiting anxiously for his arrival along with Aunt Annie and Uncle Eric. Our good friends Nick and Erin were at the hospital to help us celebrate too.   

The excitement of the day kept me wide awake last night, so I am hoping to get some good sleep tonight. I'll post more pictures soon, but here are a couple to give you a taste.

  5. Congratulations! I am Kathy's friend and I am thrilled for you all. I'm anxious to see more pictures. I hope that you have been able to get some rest, Ellie. When do you go home? Best wishes for a great life as a new family. Jack is a very lucky little guy. Enjoy each and every moment as a mom! It goes by so quickly.
