this little light of mine

She's here!! Eleanor Wrenn Crawford was born last Monday, April 25th, at 5:09pm. She weighed 7lbs, 13oz and was 19 1/2 inches long. We have been drinking up every last minute with her and somehow one week has already passed!!

We have had a steady stream of visitors at the hospital and our house - yesterday was our first day as a family of three. My Aunt Susie was generous enough to come stay with us from the time we were discharged from the hospital on Wednesday through Saturday - we would not have survived the first few days without her.

Here's Ellie all ready for her first car ride - our trip home last Wednesday 4/27/11

and here she is a big one-week old this afternoon!
