10 pm Tuesday: after sitting outside on our back porch talking with neighbors for awhile, I decided it was time for me to go to bed. I stood up to go inside, but felt so much pressure I didn't want to move!
10:30 pm Tuesday: Started feeling contractions, called our neighbors back over to be with our kids until Tim's mom could get there
11:00 pm Tuesday: Arrived at American Fork Hospital, got all checked in, hooked up to monitors, etc.
12:15 am Wednesday: Got an epidural...yeah!
12:30 am Wednesday: Doctor broke my water...dilated to 4+ (is that too much info? sorry!)
1:00 am Wednesday: I told the nurse I didn't think the epidural was working because I could still feel a lot of pressure. I pushed the button a few times to make sure I couldn't feel anything at all! Love that button! But, she thought maybe I was dilating too fast for the epidural to catch up and she was right...I was at an 8 already!
1:30 am Wednesday: Keslie makes her grand entrance into the world!
I was lucky that she was so much smaller than my other kids! She only weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and was 19 inches long. Two pounds really makes a HUGE difference at that size! It's so fun to have such a tiny baby!
We are both recovering great and are very glad to be home from the hospital! Here are some pictures and I'm sure there will be lots more to come!
Holy Cow! I have 3 kids!
Such a proud big sister!ps...thanks so much to the Halls for watching our kids that night and for the yummy dinner they brought over last night when we got home. We have the best neighbors ever!

So, I still can't believe that you have 3 kids. I'm still not ready for my third. CONGRATULATIONS! What a great Mother's Day gift.You will have to email me with all the details. Did the epidural end up working? Your kids are sooooo CUTE! Good Job!
I see a lot of Brooklyn in her, just from that first picture! Congratulations! I know your mom is dying to see you both! And the 3 kid thing, you will be fine! After 3 you are already insane anyways, so have a few more, what's the difference!
Congratulations!! That is so exciting, and she is way cute. :)
Congrats! She's beautiful! I can't believe how fast it all happened! And I'm so happy to hear that you had a 7 pounder this go around! I hope I have the same amount of luck next! (I do feel bad for her though, because she shares a birthday with Steve. Hope that's not a bad sign!)
Congratulations you guys! She's adorable...we think she looks exactly like a girl version of Talon! We're glad you're both doing well! Can't wait to see you next month in Cali!
