Skotlynd Sky Makes Seven


Welcome  to the zoo!
Skotlynd Sky was born at 12:52 Am on June 12th.  I had a few contractions in the 9:00 hour of the eleventh, they started picking up at 10:00, (We were at my parents watching a movie)  I announced around this time that I was having pretty good contractions.  my dad said well get to the Hospital, NOW!  I said no, I'm not ready to say they are the real thing yet.  Finally I decided we could go, we got to the Hospital at 11:30, I was on the verge of being dilated to a six, I decided to try jumping in the jacuzzi tub (this was around 12:00) because i had never tried that before.   After 20 minuets or so of that I got out and said lets have this baby.  She was born at 12:52, Dustin was about right on the nose, he predicted 12:50, how much closer can you get?  it's was a nice fast delivery.  Skotlynd was 6 pounds 9 ounce, and beautiful of course!

Wow!! Congratulations. I can hardly believe it. That is so wonderful. And what a blessing that she has great health. I bet you guys have a whole new appreciation of that now. She is so cute--I think she looks a lot of like you, Addy, in the carseat picture. Your kids all look so big--especially Rayney. Maybe it's her longer, thicker hair.

So we're going to be in Utah July and August. You guys don't ever go down that way do you? Or over to Rexburg? It would be so fun to see you sometime!

Congratulations guys!! She is an absolutely beautiful baby! Addy - you make it sound like having a baby is just as easy as making dinner. I guess by #5 you've got it figured out =). Hope you guys are enjoying this time with your sweet family! Keep posting pictures, your kids are TOO cute.

ADDY! I didn't even realize that you had a post of Dalee's blog! It is so good to hear how you are doing and to see your beautiful family. Reading your blog brought me to tears because of your strength and your love for family. What a wonderful person you are and always have been. I am so glad to find another Rick's roomie.
