On my way to find out the baby's gender in June, I decided to play the radio game. If the song was about a girl, it was going to be a girl, if it was about a boy, it was going to be a boy. The first 5 songs I heard were about girls. The first one was "Isn't She Lovely?" which was written about a newborn daughter the year I was born. I knew we were having a girl :)
Around midnight on Friday the 14th, I woke up with contractions. I woke Mike up around 1:30 and we started getting ready to go to the hospital. We got to the hospital around 3:45 am and made great progress, got the epidural around 7 and the baby came at 10:37 am. She came in 3 contractions of pushing!
Introducing Gemma Kathleen Oaks! Our precious gem was 19 inches long, weighing 5 pounds 13 ounces, and healthy! She's absolutely beautiful.
Dallin is such a great big brother.
He's always wanting to be near her and telling us how beautiful she is :)
Wow, we have TWO kids!
Proud Daddy :)
Tired, happy Mommy :)
