Friday evening at 7:51 pm Miss Neely Jane Bird joined her mommy, Alyson, her daddy, Jon and big sister Jacey. Neely weighed 7 pounds 14 ounces and was 19 and 1/2 inches long. It was a loooooong process to make this tiny lady come. I (Alyson) had been having on and off contractions since the Friday night before and had even had a slumber party at Gramma and Grampa Hudkins house with my sisters, mom and hubby Jon because we thought she was coming. Sadly, she tricked us....for a whole week. However, this Friday was not such a trick. It was a long, hard day but she made it and was instantly loved. Neely is a sweet, mellow little lady (so far) and loves to eat, sleep and poop. Her big sister Jacey adores her and gives her many an open mouth, wet kiss and likes to pat her back and hold her. We are glad she is here and chose to come to our family. Some family pics will follow when things settle down a bit more here.
Side note: Congrats Great Gramma and Grampa Hudkins on great grandchild #22!! What a posterity!
Love From the Bird Family: Jon, Alyson, Jacey and Neely
