Welcome Welcome


Rylee Marie Walter
Born November 24, 2011
Weight: 6 lbs 14 oz
Height: 19 inches

Rylee decided to join us on Thanksgiving Day! 
Her entrance into the world was... quick!  I guess I expected I would have more of a warning that it was time to head to the hospital (like when I had Trace).  But this time we barley made it.  We were getting ready to head over to M.Jay's for our Thanksgiving Feast when I started feeling contractions (1:00pm).  I continued getting ready and was foolish enough to think I would still get to eat my Thanksgiving meal!  But the contractions were coming too close together, so instead of heading south to Payson (M.Jay's place), we headed North to American Fork (our hospital).  It was a pretty scary drive from then on and by the time I got to the hospital (3:15ish) I was fully dilated.  Rylee was born at 3:49pm.  It felt like a mad dash to get her here but once we got her everything has been nice and calm.  So far she is a relaxed, easy going, sweet baby girl!


Trace wasn't super interested in Rylee at the hospital.  There were other things that caught his eye, like the buttons on the bottom of the bed or getting a snack from his bag!  
 But once Rylee came home with us he became very interested!  For the most part he is dealing with the new addition very well.  He loves to give her kisses!




Looks like we are going to have a keep a close eye on these two!  Rylee is in for a treat with a big brother like Trace.

Such cuties! I am glad we got to see you guys for a bit over the holidays. You are going to have your hands full, I loved the picture of Trace being inventive, standing on his bike, and finding a way to take a peek at his sister.
