December 2008, SHE'S HERE!

In order for you to know what is going on, I need to start at the beginning. Ellie was born in December of 2008. She is our fourth little girl. During the pregnancy, things were a little rocky due to some pre-term labor and extra precautions taken because of what happened with Eve. At thirty-two weeks, she developed tachycardia, which is a fast heart rate. They almost delivered me but after monitoring me for a while, she slowed down. After that she developed a heart murmur, which they kept a close eye on. Until I gave birth a few weeks early. The birth was relatively uneventful considering my other three were full of not very fun surprises. Ellie came into our world cute as ever. This was such a blessing after our last experience. I felt like she was our miracle baby.
