Welcoming Bailey Mae

**Heather, if there's any pictures I have on here that you don't want on here, tell me and I'll take them off, and apologize**
This is when we first got there

Giant cookie for Bailey :)

Look at this proud Daddy. He was such an awesome support for Heather

Oh so upset :)

Aw, look at this big yawn
This is all the people she let be in there. Her best friend Katie, and her sister Heide, her mom and me and Allie
So as some of you may have seen, one of my really close friends Heather, welcomed her little bundle of joy into this world with her cute husband, Kyle, on June 30, 2009. Heather was such a trooper throughout her entire pregnancy, especially at the end, when she started to swell and wasn't sleeping anymore, she still came to work up until her due date, she still spent time with me and Allie, such as going to the swimming pool and even to the Strawberry Days Rodeo. She was aweseome and I just hope I can handle my pregnancies like that. She even did good when she was in labor. She had to be induced because she wasn't progressing on her own. 3 pushes and Bailey was out. The best part about all this, is Heather was sweet enough to let me and Allie witness her miracle. It was amazing to be in the delivery room and see how strong she was. Bailey did so good, came out crying and healthy and beautiful.
Heather I can't even tell you how much it meant to me that I was in there for your delivery. It's such an emotional and blessed moment for two people, and it was incredible that you guys shared it with me. I can't thank you enough, and I feel like it's brought us closer. I love you and Kyle so much and appreciate the friendship you guys have given us throughout the past year or more. Bailey is truely your beautiful creation and I love her so much, even though I still haven't had the chance to hold her yet, ha ha. (Buck's still sick, is why) Anyways, thank you again so much for being such amazing, sweet people. You're already such a great mom, and it's so cute to see you guys learn and grow and love your cute little girl. Thanks for letting me be there :)

Doesn't it make you want one now!? or maybe there's already one on the way!;)
Anyway, that's really cool that you got to be with one of your friends and witness such a fun, special moment. It's an extraordinary, out of this world amount of love that you feel when you get to meet your baby for the first time!
Your pictures turned out great and really captured all the emotions.
I love the daddy picture... he looks so proud and happy!
It brings back a lot of great memories for when I had Kael... Chris just sat in the chair next to me holding him, studying everything about him and crying!:)
