Our Sweet Little Lily

Lily Ann was born Saturday, May 14 at 10:34 a.m. after a relatively short labor. Everything went quite well. We knew we were in labor by about midnight and made it to the hospital around 2:30 a.m. The rest of the night was kind of a blur until it was time to begin pushing around 8:00 a.m. Tyler was a big help to me in the delivery room. He was the ideal birthing coach! He was confident and positive the whole way through. Tyler's family (Grandma and Grandpa Gwilliam, Uncle Landon, and Aunt Lauren and Uncle Richie) came to the hospital while I was in labor. It was sweet to know they were in the waiting room cheering us on. My mom arrived the afternoon Lily was born and my dad arrived late that evening. We are so lucky to have such a great support group! Lily was 8 pounds 6 ounces and 20 1/2 inches long. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect baby! She is healthy and beautiful and we are so happy to have her in our family!
