This girl entered the world with high drama. "We will be happy if she gets to 34 weeks" turned into "induction on due date" turned into "c-section the next day."

Brand new Ellie. |
Ellie spent her first three weeks in the NICU, healing from duodenal atresia surgery and learning to eat.
|
So many wires. And the first kind of tape they used gave her a rash, so she looks a little rough. |
Ellie had a rough first six months with open heart surgery added to the mix. But by a year, she was a pretty healthy kid.
|
First birthday party prep. |
|
She really, really liked the blue icing. |
Ellie, we love you so much, and we can't wait to see what the coming year has in store!
|
Second birthday party. She wanted a moo party. |
|
Her third birthday was on a snow day. |
We had a good year.
Happy fourth birthday, my sweet and crazy girl.
|
A few days before her birthday, I asked if Ellie would go outside for a photo shoot.
She said no. She did agree to play with her own camera inside. |
