Welcome Bridger!




We have a new baby boy in our family! At 1:29pm on Sunday Our little Bridger was born! The delivery all went very well. That morning I started having contractions around 7am. I told Ryan he would be fine to go to his 9:45 meeting but not the 11am. I called Mom and told her we would probably have a new baby about 1:30pm (Did I call that or what). I then tried to get in touch with the Jones to get our girls over to them. They were in church and none of them took their phones and the numbers listed for their Bishop were not answered. So we went to their house and Ryan snuck into their church meetings to get them. They came home and then Ryan and I went to the hospital. We went to labor and delivery and they thought we were first time parents because of our excitement and smiles. They also thought I was probably going to be going back home being only dilated to a 2. We got in and they started doing my history and I said this was baby #3. I also told them that I go pretty quick so the nurse stopped doing the history and checked me. I was at a 7! She started speeding everything up, getting our room ordering the epidural etc. We had a great nurse named Geri and had a midwife deliver our baby. It took about 3 pushes and he was here. I didn't even tear this time! 


He has been a good baby. He has stayed up most of the night the last two nights and sleeps really well during the day. I think he looks a lot like Ryan and his uncle Adam. The girls have been super cute with him too. They are always asking to hold him. Emi is quick on the scene when he cries to make sure he is okay. At the hospital Emi held him first and was super sweet nuzzling and kissing him. Ali made sure to tell everyone to be very careful so they didn't break him. Ali was quite insistent that his name be Jay, but I think we have her persuaded to call him Bridger now. So far it all looks pretty good for the Jones family. Thank you to everyone for your love and support!
