Introducing Gunnar Kale Ellison

Gunnar is here!!
Born October 15th at 4:51 pm weighing 6lbs. 12 oz.

Labor was great. One push and he was here! He had low blood sugar so we had to monitor it close while in the hospital but he is great now and was released on Saturday. Mack couldn't come to the hospital due to the flu season so he got to see him on Saturday and really didn't care that he was here. He had too much fun at Grandma and Grandpa Gillman's and was too tired to care.


First day home.....

Now we are just taking one day at a time. Mack is now realizing he is not the center of attention no longer and has been testing my patients daily. Gunnar and I are still trying to figure out this breast feeding thing and sleeping more than an hour at night. We are praying it gets better each day. My laundry has doubled, diapers doubled, crying daily doubled and stress but really life is good. Glad he is finally here and healthy and well.
My family is great and thanks to all for their love and support!

Oh yay!!!!! Congrats! Isn't it amazing how your love grows to fit another one? Mack will grow to love him too. :)

I love his name. Kale is one of our names we love but it would be after Caleb so it would be Cale. It may or may not happen.

Love you girl! Congrats!
