What better way to start the year off, than with the birth of a baby?
Staci, Brad's sister, had a doctors appointment on Wednesday and they scheduled her to be induced on Monday the 9th, if she didn't go into labor before.
Friday afternoon, we got the call we had been waiting on. Her water had broke and she and her husband, Matt, were on there way to the hospital.
I had a hair appointment scheduled for that night so as soon as I was done, Brad and I headed to the hospital. Staci was feeling pretty good when we got there.
We stayed pretty late, but since Brad and I had to work early Saturday morning, we headed back to his moms house to get some sleep...hoping to get a call saying that she would be here any minute. That call, however, never came. After 18 long hours, and no progress, they decided on a C-Section.

Weight and Length:
8lbs 4 oz. and 20 1/2 inches long
I was at working when I got the call that Madalynn was finally here.
They let me go a little early and I could hardly wait to get my hands on her!
Brad on the other hand, was pretty nervous, but finally held her...I think he looks fabulous holding a baby ;)
She is probably already sick of her Aunt Mantha snapping pictures, but I couldn't help it...she is too cute and it has been 4 long years since I have been around a new baby!
We were only able to hold her when we could pry her out of Carol's hands!
But, I think she has a right, Madalynn is her first grand baby!
She is one proud Mimi!!
Welcome to the world Madalynn, you are one loved little girl!
Only 87 days until your cousin is due!
I am so glad they will be able to grow up together!
