My sister Maren was due September 4th, but her doctor kept telling her she was going to deliver early, so I took advantage of the holiday weekend and went up to Utah just in case she had the baby early. I got to be there when she delivered her first son Brigham, and I really wanted to be there this time as well. So I flew up Friday night, and had Cafe Rio for dinner, the important part of the trip. Saturday, nothing was happening with Maren so the rest of my family and I went to go to the BYU game. We were at the Stadium about to go in and Maren called to tell us it was time! So we hopped in the car and drove to Salt Lake. We made if with plenty of time to spare. Benjamin was born at 9:08. He weighed 7 lbs 7 ounces and was 19 and 3/4 inch long. He has dark hair and is so adorable. Maren did an awesome job. It was so fun to be there for the birth, along with Brian of course, my mom, Emily, and Bailey too. I had to come home so Tobi can go back to work tomorrow, but we are going to Utah again next week, so I will get to see my nephew again soon. Congratulations Maren and Brian!
Doesn't Maren look too good to have just had a baby!
All of us in our BYU attire ready for the game
Brian was watching football for a good portion of the labor. Too bad it wasn't BYU, the hospital did not get the right channel!
Of course I had to put in a picture with Bailey in it
