Hi Dad!

She is here!  After all the delays and slow progression it only took 3 pushes over 12 minutes for Ella to join us.  6 pounds 7 ounces.  21 inches long (longer than both of her brothers).  

Despite 4 wraps of the cord around her neck (a site none of the nurses or OB had seen before) Ella is doing well.  Tonya is doing great as well.

Congratulations on your new baby girl...she is beautiful! Please tell Tonya the same. (I was at the hospital visiting Beth 2 doors down from you all when Ella was born.) Enjoy your baby girl - Girls are so much fun!
