She’s here! She’s HERE!

After a full day, Lindsey and Ryan, along with all their family and friends, welcomed, with love,The day was just amazing, and being there to share in the arrival of their new miracle was such a privilege that this new AUNT is so thankful to have had! Lindsey had some tough contractions around lunch time and handled them like a trooper, but she was more than happy to receive her epidural! After that-smooth sailing! She posted a few updates from her phone on Facebook, napped, visited with all of us, and waited-and in the end, she pushed for around 45 minutes, and then Kendall was born! When I walked in to find little Kendall in her mommy’s arms, it took my breath away! God is so good!

Yep, she made labor look easy! The anesthesiologist had come to visit by this point! Before Kendall- Here comes Ryan to share the good news! And after! Yep, it was love at first sight! Here’s our first good look at the cute little girly!Adam had class in Hilton Head, so he came to meet his niece today-Kendall is lucky to have such a great Uncle! Jack wanted me to tell her that she’s going to LOVE him!!The proud grandparents!She’s off to the nursery for her first bath!She was not loving it, but her daddy was right there to calm her down, and take her picture! LOVING the tiny baby toes! SO, there’s a glimpse into my niece’s birthday!

It truly was a special day, and I’m so happy for you, Linds and Ryan! She’s nothing short of a miracle, and she’ll change everything-for the better! With the sleepless nights-remember, this too, shall pass. Before you know it, she’ll be ten months old and you’ll be planning her first birthday party wondering where the time has gone. You’ll be thinking back on this day with fond memories-and lots of picture!! Ha! Thank you for letting me be a part of all this! We can’t wait to see you on Saturday!

We love you!
Mark, Michelle, and Jack
