She was born on July 23rd at 1:16 pm. She weighs 7 lbs 5 ozs and is 19 inches long. This was my longest labor to date. She weighed and measured almost exactly what Aubrey did. She has one dimple in her right cheek. We named her after my Grandma Dean whose name is Ada Evelyn. So we combined her first and middle name to get Adalyn with a short A sound. I think this is fitting considering she resembles more of the Dean side. We are so glad she is here. I will save the labor story for another post. What I will say is that it was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life..
Her Daddy already just adores her.
It is amazing to me that my heart can open up and love another so much. I love being her mother. The Lord has truly blessed our family with such a beautiful little girl..

Oh, Melanie! I am so glad she is here. Early is better than later, I think. She is beautiful. You can always tell me your birth story privately if you're afraid to scare the others. I don't think I can be frightened. Hope it went well. Either way it is over now. Love you!
Congratulations Melanie! I had no idea! She is lovely!!!
