Kinlee Gayle Bradley

Little Miss Kinlee
Born Sunday, August 15, 2010 @ 10:25 am
7 lbs. 14 oz.
20 in. long

My water broke around 2:30 am. I headed to the hospital, had an epidural at about 5:30 am, and delivered Kinlee at 10:25 am. This may be too much information, but this was the hardest labor I've been through. She was my biggest baby so that probably had a lot to do with it. I had an epidural, so it could have been a lot worse, but I wasn't sure I could do it! She was so worth all the pain though, she is beautiful and we love her so much. My doctor was awesome and we couldn't have asked for better nurses. Lori and Janet were our delivery room nurses and they were a-m-a-z-i-n-g! Lori has been there for all 3 of our babies so we were so glad she was there for this one.

The kids were a little nervous at first, but all the nervousness is long gone. Kadee is obsessed and asks every 2 minutes if she can hold the baby. Connor has been such a big helper, he has made things so easy on me. Rory took the week off work to help me out and has been amazing. We are so excited to have the final addition of our family here.
