Yesterday afternoon, Rode called me and told me I'd have to go pick up mom last night from the airport. He told me Katie's water broke when she was at the Fit Stop on the treadmill... haha classic. So she called Rode and he told her to go the hospital. She went and they said, "The baby's coming". So Katie wasn't quite ready yet. She headed home to take a shower and pack... which I love that she did. haha.
Mom flew in last night at 8:45. On the way to pick her up, Denver and I bought a car seat for the new baby that was on her way! (It's true, they didn't have one yet :D). So, all the while I'm receiving text messages from Rode telling me "She's at a 6....7.... 9 1/2... you better hurry!" We're driving out to Heber 90 miles an hour (we almost ran out of gas and had to stop and put a couple bucks in... which only added to the excitement!) Mom calls Mama Winterton to find out what the status is when we were driving between Park City and Heber. Mama said, she's ready to push but she's stalling to wait for you guys! When we got there, that little baby... she was ready to come and play! Katie pushed that baby out in a little over an hour! She came at 11:32 last night! Katie was ok with an audience at the birth, so Mom, Mama, Anita, Holly, Brooke, Rode and myself were all in there, not to mention the doctor and 2 nurses. Rode's dad and Denver waited in the hall.
I was a little nervous to be there for it because I thought, that's intense, I don't know if I'll ever want babies if I see this. Not even close... that was truly the most amazing thing I have experienced! The Spirit that was felt was so incredible! It even made me cry a little! It even makes me cry now when I think about it. It is such a miracle! The human body is the most fascinating thing! We are so blessed to have our bodies! And that little baby girl, she is the most beautiful baby! I love that you can feel the love of our Heavenly Father as you look at her! You know she came from His presence.
She is the most beautiful little baby! She doesn't have a name just yet. She was 20 inches long and 7 lbs. 14 oz. She has dark hair and it was even a little curly! She has big adorable lips! I am so excited to have another cute little neice come into my life! Congrats to Katie and Rode and their beautiful baby girl!
I will post some pictures over the next couple of days!
