Ella's Fan Club

Ella has received lots of visitors both at the hospital and at home.  She asked us to give them all a shout out here on her blog.

Ella's Grammy (Grandma Fejfar) was there to see her arrival and her Gram (Gramma McKechnie) came to the hospital soon after.

Kate's boss, Auntie Elycia, couldn't wait to come meet Ella.

Boden's mom and dad, Ty and Steph, came down from Evergreen.

Wyatt (Ella's boyfriend) and his parents Brendan and Brooke also came down from Evergreen.

Atley's parents, Kent and Kelyn, made the trek from Greeley to see Ella.

Matt and Kent began planning a girls only pheasant hunting trip, excluding all the dads with boys.

Jeff and Jami, friends from our small group.

Josie, Emmy and Zane's mom and Kate's old college roomie.

Zack, he came with Jos.

Grammy was anxiously awaiting us at home.

Grandma and Grandpa Johnson couldn't wait to get their hands on their first grandbaby.

Needless to say, Ella has been spoiled rotten with all the grandparents and visitors.  Mom and Dad are looking forward to a quiet week at home before Dad goes back to work.

Introducing Ella Mae Johnson

Ella was born on May 6th at 11:32 am.  She weighed 6 lbs and 14 oz and is 19 3/4 inches long.  It was an uncomplicated birth and both mom and baby are doing great!  We all came home Saturday and are enjoying our time at home.  We're a bit exhausted and experiencing a house full of grandparents but appreciating the help.  Below are the first of many pics to come.

Proud Daddy

Ella and Mommy

Getting ready for her trip home.

All strapped in and ready to go.

More than a little nervous about driving her home.

What's she thinking about?  Milk?

Too sweet

First sponge bath.

How can such an angel make such dirty diapers?

Ella's Room

Ella's room is almost complete!  She got quite the hookup by her gracious grandparents.  Gram and Doc provided her crib, Grammy got her dresser/changing table, and Grandma and Grandpa got her new ride.  Below are some before and after pics.  Ella's daddy has been working really hard and we were pleased to somehow manage to assemble it all without any major arguments.  Ella will be here before we know it!
