Brynlee was brought into this world at 7:55am, she was 7lbs 7oz, 18 inches long and has a head full of hair! I guess Kendra's continuous indigestion/heartburn was an indication of this (isn't that some ol' wives tale? ya know what I'm talking about). My official job was to take pictures of Emma as she saw Brynlee for the first time. First of all, prior to Brynlee's birth, she was overwhelmed with the whole situation but ECSTATIC about the elevator. She kept asking to get back on it. Mind you, this all took place at Wilson N. Jones Hospital, the elevator was a little scary to say the least. Finally, the time came when Brynlee was brought to the "window". Let me just say, for some reason, Emma became really bashful. It was almost as though she KNEW we all wanted to see her reaction and, therefore, the shyness began. However, after about an hour, she would not stop talking about her sister...she wanted to hold her, she wanted to give her a bottle to see if she may be "thirsty". She's going to be such an awesome big sister!
Brynlee looks just like Emma when she was born...from the cute little fat cheeks to the eyes to the hair. It's almost like she's a clone lol. At this point it should go without saying my sister only has gorgeous children so, of course, she's going to be quite a beauty. It's truly remarkable just how much love a person can feel for one person and while you can't imagine another addition to your family, another comes and when it happens, your heart just opens up and fills with that love.
Now I would love nothing more than to post pictures of the new addition to my family BUT, I will leave that for her mother to do. However, here are a couple of pictures of Emma waiting and then seeing her baby sister for the first time!

Thanks Keelie! Yeah...it will take a while before Emma realizes Brynlee is NOT a doll and will be there forever. She'll be a great big sis, I just know that! I'm so proud of her and Brynlee though!
