Our surprise is here and it's a girl! We were so excited to welcome this new little miracle to our family. She must have been excited to get here and meet us too because mom pushed two times and she was born. Alayna is a good baby and her siblings were excited to meet her when she came home. We are still adjusting to having 4 kids, but things are going pretty well. Thanks again to all our wonderful family and friends that have been so incredibly helpful and supportive.

This was a couple hours before Alayna was born. I look happy because I was dialated to a 5+ and had just recieved the epidural ( I love modern medicine!)

Mom & Dad/Grandma & Grandpa Gillis were there with us when she was born, it was such an exciting moment. We had all of our family waiting standby on their phones to see if our baby was a boy or a girl..JPG)
Jon and I were excited but really nervous, I think I was more nervous than he was actually. .JPG)

My delivery Nurse, Dr. Barton, and a student doing his residency...it was his first time seeing a live birth. They all were awesome!.JPG)
This is the day Alayna and I came home. Our kids met her for the first time because they weren't allowed in the hospital. It was hard for me not to see my kids for 2 1/2 days...I missed them so I was excited to get home and see them. My little Brookie all the sudden looked like a big girl. They all had fun holding their new baby sister.
