meet Quinn Cate!!!

We welcomed our beautiful baby girl Quinn Cate Ellis into the world on March 27th at 4:19pm. She weighed 8lbs 12 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long! We just love her to pieces!!!
The labor was amazing...didn't know it could actually be so great! ...and I had a good labor with G... I went into the hospital dilated to 3cm and 70% effaced...it was pretty slow going until 2:30, when in 3o minutes I had gone from 5cm dilated to complete! Even our nurse couldn't believe it! After waiting and waiting for our doctor to get there and after our nurse told me pretty firmy..."don't push" (until the dr arrives) we welcomed our baby girl...in only 3 or so pushes (I include that because I couldn't believe it was so easy!) Love love loved holding our baby girl for the first time!....she is such a little miracle! We just love her to pieces!!!
























2 days and counting...

only a couple of days before we met sweet baby Quinn...I was hoping to get just one cute pics of me pregnant with both of my boys....didn't quite happen...so in this picture I would have been 39weeks and 1 day prego!!!

aren't they just the cutest!
such a pretty sunny day...perfect for a shadow picture!!!

Shake Rattle and Roll Baby Shower

In early February G and I flew down to Texas for Kim's baby shower. A few other girls and I threw it for her! It was super cute and she got some great things for baby Braxton!

Here I am with little dude....33 weeks pregnant!!!

The 3 pregos at the party! Mistelle welcomed baby Ellie only a few days before Miss Quinn was born...and only a day behind Mr. Braxton!
Someone liked the cake!
He was also a good helper unwrapping all of the gifts!

38 weeks prego

Here I am once again prego...at 38 weeks prego! and a little shot of big brother!


getting ready for baby!

You probably rememeber my friend Camie from earlier blogs this pregnancy! Here is the both of us stocking up with goodies from a local consignment sale in early March!
It shocks me to look at pics of myself because I never felt as big as I looked! Yowza!! Here is us after getting pedis along with another good friend of ours in Mid-March! Yes, she welcomed a baby boy, Hudson, a week before we met our sweet Quinn! Sorry Camie for the not so cute pics of us...despite the unflattering pics of us, I had a great time!!!
