Baby Brooke






Baby Brooke is here! She was born yesterday, June 18, 2009 at 1:42 pm, weighed 8 lbs 15 oz and measured 19 3/4 in. She is beautiful and chubby.

We are so grateful to have a healthy baby. Within minutes after she was born the placenta was delivered. No accreta! Minimal bleeding. Uterus left intact. It truly was a miracle. We felt a miracle was coming all morning long as we went to the hospital. The sky was clear, it was a beautiful day, and Ali had a confident, peaceful glow through the whole thing. It was like angels were standing around watching over her. Thank you all for all your prayers. I know Heavenly Father heard all our prayers. We are truly blessed.
