Born on the wedding day...

Dantzel Neeley was born on Friday, July 30th at 9:10am. She weighed 7lbs 6oz and 18in long. My original due date was July 27th, and Hailee's wedding was July 30th. I thought because I went on my due date with Brett that I would do the same with her. Well Friday morning at 3:30am I had my first contraction, and my first thought was "oh no, my mom is going to kill me". So it's true, I missed my only sister's wedding, but I had the most wonderful excuse. The best surprise was when Hailee and Derek came to the hospital from the temple to see me and Dantzel. It was so sweet, I get a big lump in my throat every time I think about it. What a cool memory, I love my sister and my new little baby girl. It was an AMAZING day.
I labored at home until 7:30am and I told Jeff I needed to go to the hospital NOW, becuase the pain was getting bad fast. I checked in at the hospital at 8am and I had her 1hr and 10 min later. She came is just three pushes and was healthy as can be. I am recovering well, and she is a sweet little peanut. It's amazing how tiny they are, it also makes Brett look like a giant. He loves his little sister, but isn't exactly sure how to interact with her. We are so happy to have our sweet girl here.
