Ella is here!



Ella came today!!! She is a big one! 9 lbs. 6 oz., 22 inches. The labor went pretty quickly, and both she and Jami did great! Look at these, two aren't they beautiful! Anneka came by to visit with her baba and grandpa and she gave her approval, as you can see from the huge smile on her face. It is a beautiful day and we feel so blessed by our amazing God! Thank you everyone for your prayers for us.

We can't WAIT to meet Ella and see you all!!! I agree with everyone else -- you don't look like you just came through labor. Hey, what time was she actually delivered??? If it was 2:40 PM, then taking into account the time change to Krasnoyarsk (where Heidi was born 15 years ago), that would make Heidi and Ella twins!!! Well, with a slight 15-year gap. :)
