Elliott

Just a few pictures so everyone can get a little sample of how beautiful our little Elliott is, we wanted to take more tonight, but were afraid because of how her blood pressure was when we left the NICU, will try to get some more of her cleaned up and some with dad in the pictures!

Mom's first time to really "see" Elliott and to hold her hand at Children's Mercy just 5 hours after birth. Elli is on the "Jet" vent in this picture, not yet on ECMO.

She is such a gorgeous baby!! What a roller coaster you've been on. I can't imagine how anxious and exhausted you both are. I check for more updates often, I really like hearing more about her when you have time!

Brian & Cassi,
Loved seeing the pictures and to hear about how active Elli has been being over the last few days. It really meant a lot to me and Charles to be able to spend some time with you and Elli on Friday. We're continuing to send love and prayers your way.
