Birthday

Mom and Dad got a call from the hospital at 6:00 AM letting them know that they were ready at the hospital.

They quickly got ready and drove to Utah Valley. After getting checked in, Mom hung out in bed eating ice chips, waiting for you to come.

Grandma Hales hung out with Mom and Dad all day. She worked in Labor and Delivery for 20 years,  and she was excited to be there. Ayrika came right before you were born.

At 3:19 you were born. Dr. Nance delivered you and he cut your cord because it was wrapped around you. After some suction we finally heard you give out a loud cry. You were 7 pounds 9 ounces and 20 inches long.
