It's been a long, arduous 25 hours for a certain mama-to-be, but it's all over now.
Kiera Noelle was born at 8:30 this morning, 7lbs 1oz, and everybody is fine but exhausted, so I hope they all have a great sleep (my mom and his mom were also there the whole time).
I'm at work right now, but I'll get to see them tonight, and I'll put up some pictures as soon as I can.
Congratulations Jared and Elleah, especially Elleah. You were such a trooper, I'm so proud of all of you!

Baby?
So, as you can see, that countdown is done, except it was one day off. My sister's due date is Oct. 27, which is tomorrow. In any case, my sister has been on mat leave for 2 weeks now, so the waiting game has officially begun.
The funny thing is, she has been doing everything she can to make her body go into labor. She's following all of those myths/tips about walking, and squats, and raspberry leaf tea...but no baby yet! She said very recently that God is giving her the strength and patience to simply wait. She isn't anxious at all!
And she's right, even if she goes 2 weeks overdue, 2 weeks is not very long in the grand scheme of things. And that baby is gonna have to come out at some point! I guess that means that everybody else is officially more impatient than the mother-to-be!

***This is a sticky post. All new blogs will be posted below this one.***
Depending on how much attention you pay to the top of my page, you may or may not have noticed the countdown there. Yes, it's a baby countdown, and it is NOT for me! I don't want anybody to misinterpret anything, I am not pregnant, I don't plan on doing anything related to that anytime soon. It's for my older sister and brother-in-law, Elleah and Jared.
The word is out, it's official: there's going to be a little one in their family! At the time that I wrote this post (Mar.26), I had had to keep it a secret for a whole week, and it was quite difficult. But now the news is out in the open, so you can be sure that I'm going to tell everyone! I'm very excited to be an auntie.
This is their first child, her due date is approx. Oct.26, so that's the date I set for the countdown, that's the day the countdown will be over. Of course, the baby will be born whenever it wants to be born, so we'll see what's happened once Oct. 26 rolls around.
I'm putting the date for this blog as Oct.26, so it will always be at the top of my page, so that whenever someone new visits my site, they won't be misinformed about who that ticker is for. I'm also planning on taking pictures of my sister's ever-growing belly and posting them on here, so this blog will be regularly updated.
Yay for my little niece or nephew!
