Such an Angel
















We made it home. It is so nice to be back home with Ellie. She is getting used to her big bed, and all the noises (especially her big sister) and sights of our house. She looked so little in her car seat. I was glad to get here and out of the car....even though the hospital was just a few miles up the road it seemed like a long way! We are all doing good and glad to be home!

Steffens Party of Four
















We are officially a family of four! Justin has three girls now....which seems a little scary to him I think. We are so blessed to have such a healthy, happy family and give all the thanks to God! Party of five.....one day!!

Big Sister Britten














Having two girls is going to be such a joy!! It was so neat to see Britten meet Ellie for the first time. She even brought in her own camera to capture the moment from her view. All Britten would do was giggle for the first ten minutes. She is such a proud sister....and I know that she will be great at it too!
