At 5:25am on December 25th my daughter, Elise Victoria Kelley, was born.
What a suprise Santa brought us this year, huh?
She weighed 7 pounds, 9 ounces, was 19 1/2 inches long, and was completely healthy and happy to be with us on Christmas morning. She has lots and lots of brown hair and the darkest blue eyes I've ever seen, with these huge pink chipmunk cheeks and the cutest button nose and perfect little lips!! She is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen and I am totally and completely in love with her.
We came home from the hospital last night and obviously things are pretty hectic around here because we're trying to get all settled, so if anyone is upset that I didn't call them with the news please understand that we're really busy and it doesn't mean I forgot about my friends. Feel free to call any time, we'd love to have visitors come over and see her as long as you aren't sick.
Hopefully within the next week or so I'll have some pictures online to share with everyone. I thought I'd be taking tons of pictures, but it turns out that's hard to do when all I want to do is hold her and stare at her and keep her to myself, but anyway...
I hope everyone had a safe holiday, and that everyone's Christmas was as wonderful as mine was.
