Cousin Kira is born

On Sunday we all went to church. We could tell Hailey wasn't feeling well, and we had started to wonder if she was in labor. After we got home from church she continued to have contractions. Hailey and Cale didn't go to the hospital until about 10 o'clock that night. We stayed at home and awaited a phone call. At 3 in the morning I woke up to feed Brayden and realized that we hadn't heard from them yet. So I called up to the hospital to find out that Hailey had just received her epidural and she was dilated to a 6. Over the next couple of hours she started to dilated much quicker. I showered and got ready and around 5 headed for the hospital. We received a call that she was a 10 and they were going to start pushing shortly. We got to the room as soon as we could and I was able to leave Brayden with my dad in the waiting room while I was able to be in the room for the delivery. It was so amazing to see Kira coming into this world. Hailey and Cale were so excited to hold their little girl in there arms. She was very healthy and she had a very quiet cry.Holding Kira was so different than holding Brayden...he has gotten so big and she was so little. Kira weighted 8 pounds when she was born.

Grandma and Grandpa were excited to have grandchild number 2 here.
We put the kids together to have them meet for the first time. I am sure they will grow to be good friends.
