Happy Birthday Kelly!

Kelly last fall, but she has changed since then. I will have to get a current photo on here later.

Kelly is 12 today. She is such a great help to me. I can't believe she is 12 and starts Young Women's this weekend. It seem like just the other day I was in the delivery room and the nurse told us she bet the nurse of the mom next door that I would have Kelly first. The other woman had been in labor all afternoon. After hearing how fast Ian was born, my nurse was sure I would deliver first. I guess it is a good thing that they only bet a candy bar, because Kelly came 4 minutes after the other baby.

I had time to have an epidural with Kelly, and after Ian's natural delivery I decided that drugged is a good way to have a baby. All in all the labor was just over 4 hours. Kelly weighed 8lbs 9.8 oz. I don't remember how long she was, but she was good sized.
Kelly and her cousin Logan when they were babies. Logan is only 2 weeks older than Kelly.

Last week Kelly placed 2nd in "The Wright Stuff" category at the state Science Olympiad. She and her friend Rachel worked really hard on a rubber band powered glider. Good Job Kelly.
