Welcome Jaylee Joy Sanders

This past weekend Me, Brock, the kids, and Brock's sister Kallie, her husband Brett, and their baby went to San Diego to go to the U.S. Open. It was a short trip, and a LOT of driving, but we had a great time. On our way there and back, we stopped at Nolan and Treo's house in St. George to break up the driving. They have such a beautiful house. Treo is such a good decorator. Sorry Nolan, I know it wasn't you that made your house so cute. Anyway, Treo had an appointment to get her labor started on Saturday night, 3 weeks early due to some complications, and we were hoping that she would deliver before we had to head back to Salt Lake. I called Nolan at the hospital at about 10 in the morning on Sunday to see how it was going and he said that they were still just waiting. They would be giving her petosin in the next little while. I figured there was no chance she would be born in the next few hours, so we decided to get ready to leave. At about 11:30 we called Nolan to tell him goodbye and thanks for letting us stay at his house, and he said that she was getting ready to start pushing! We were so excited! We decided to go to lunch before leaving to see if it was going to go quickly or not. About half an hour later Nolan called and said she had arrived. We quickly drove to the hospital and got to see the sweet baby girl. She weighed in at a hefty 5 lbs, 15 oz., and was 19 inches long. It was so crazy to see a baby smaller than Nixon. He is almost 4 months now, so of course she was smaller, but my gosh, she was tiny! Congratulations to the new parents, and on Father's Day, none the less.

I can't believe Nolan is a dad!! 10 years ago I wouldn't have been able to picture it! A friend of mine from school said she was reading my blog and followed it to yours. She loved the music you had so much that she left your blog up and studied to the music!
