Rilee Mathilde Shelley

Our sweet Rilee came into the world really fast!

(Luckily I was little more prepared this time having delivered Karli so quickly as well!)

At around 7:45 a.m.,

 I realized that I was having "real" contractions and called Tyler and my mom.

By the time my dear mother got to my house,

Ty still had about 15 minutes to get home...

so my mom drove me to the hospital

and we met Tyler there a few minutes later

(at around 8:30)

My mom left, I was taken to the delivery room.

Tyler was asking for an epidural for me,

sweet,

but no time. 

Rilee was born at 8:45 a.m.

weighing 6 lbs

measuring 17 1/2 inches long

She had a little trouble breathing

and spent an hour like this...

Alexa and Karli were so cute

when they came to meet their new baby sister for the first time! 

They walked in with the biggest smiles...

The first picture of our new family of five!

Look how tiny she looks in the car seat :)
