WELCOME ELLIE!

After a long day, Ellie Karalynn Greer, joined the world on Wednesday, April 23 at 11:59 pm. Mom and baby are doing great!! She's perfect to us - weighing in at 8 pounds even and 19.5 inches long; beautiful head of brown hair and the most stunning features. We aren't sure who she looks like but are anxious to hear everyone's thoughts.

We came home from the hospital on Friday and were greeted to balloons and signs, a very clean house and dinners in the freezer, courtesy of one of my best friends, Aunt Barbie. What a lifesaver!

Our first night home was a challenge as we are adjusting to a new schedule, but Grandma Kay Kay helped make the transition easier by staying the night with Mom & Dad. Plus, she held Ellie all night which made our little girl a happy one!

We're working hard at adjusting and figuring out a schedule, all suggestions are welcome! Feel free to come see us soon, we are anxious to show off our little princess.

Matt & I will post more pictures as we take them!

Well I hope you all are doing well. She sure is a cutie. I'm very happy to hear Melissa that she only weighed 8 lbs. That sure sounds good to me. Anyway try to relax and enjoy. I know your both pretty nervous but it will get better everyday. Give her a hug for us.

Love from Missouri (Aunt Jan)
