Eleanor Melanie Cate

Mom with Ellie

Dad and Ellie- that shirt was her first blanket- Dad's "I Love You Dad" shirt

Rachel and Ellie

Laura and Ellie

Grandma and Ellie and Miri

I just had to post a few pictures, but she was born at 12:58 in the morning on September 9, 2011. She weighed 7 lbs, 9 oz. She was 20" long. And she's adorable.

Ellie

Well, this'll be mostly be pictures of the little girl herself- by request of Aunt Katie (she asked Mom to post pictures of Ellie...) so here they are!





Pretty baby...








farther off shots...

















Daddy holding his Ellie...







Grandpa Cate...







Grandma Cate (a hard one, since in almost all of the pictures, she was talking to Laura when I got the picture, but it was my bad photography's fault...)







Mommy and Ellie... so cute together...








Me and Ellie...









Laura and Ellie...









Brian, sick but trying not to get Ellie sick- we had to get one
picture of him with Ellie...





Miriam's other picture, which is the same 'pose' as Brian's, shows
a really goofy smile...






That's my hand, I had just readjusted her head when Laura shot the picture







Rachel and Ellie... you can tell how much Rachel loves Ellie...

















And surprisingly enough, these last 5 pictures were taken at 7 this morning, and it's now 4:50, and she's just being changed out of them!!! What a concept!





Well, these are the recent pictures of baby Ellie.

Yep, she was blessed on 9/11 so Grandpa Cate could participate since they were leaving right after sacrament meeting to go to the airport. So she was blessed, Mom took the sacrament, and then they left. But we were lucky that they got to come at all!

Still no Ellie

Yep, it's true, Ellie is still inside Mommy's tummy, and seems to have no intentions of getting out. On the plus side, Ellie won't ever complain about a birthday on Fast Sunday!!! :)
