Boston is Here!

I'm an aunt again - for the third time in three months! My Brown family sister-in-law's have been busy pumping out the kids this summer, that's for sure. Boston Cole Stoker is the latest addition to our fine family. My fabulous SIL, Jayme, delivered him via C-Section last Thursday afternoon and we finally got to meet him at Banner Desert Hospital on Saturday night when we got back from our ward campout. The baby had been breach for the past month, so they had the C-Section scheduled in case he didn't turn. Plus, the ultrasound measurements told the doctor that he was going to be really huge (but he didn't end up being too huge - only 8 lbs. 6 oz). Even though he finally turned the day of the C-Section, Jayme opted to go with the C-Section anyway due to his projected size and the fact that her labors are usually 30 hours and awful. It turned out to be a really good thing, too, since the umbilical cord was wrapped tightly around his little neck when he came out. What a blessing that he arrived here safe and perfect!

As you can see, he's pretty stinkin' cute. He's got his brother Grady's face if you ask me, but I know they change all the time so who knows what he'll look like in a week. I'm sure that Boston's three big brothers will be a big help to Jayme as she adjusts to life with four boys!

With the arrival of Boston, I now am the proud aunt of 11 nephews and 5 nieces. (Nephews: Bryant, Tanner, Tallin, Tate, Trey, Cohen, Grady, Boston, Chase, Gavin & Dax; Nieces: Randi, Avery, Lainey, Jolie, & Eva).

Lucky Me!

  1. Great picture Kelli! I am glad you guys came to see us. Boston is such a good little baby and I am so happy that he is here safe and sound. Barrett texted me and said too bad she couldn't make him any hair clips. Maybe she just needs to learn how to make some boy beanie hats instead! :) Way to go on your running too. You are totally inspiring. Have a great girls trip! You deserve it! See you on Sunday.
