Yes. We are officially a family of four. But before I get into any details of our new little girl, I have a few things to say about my wife—Jennifer.Jennifer is the strongest women I have ever met. Not only is she strong physically, but emotionally, mentally and spiritually, she always seems to have her feet firmly planted exactly where she wants them. She is strong in just about every way (self control in Baby Gap is the rare exception). From the time I first met Jen down to our last 24 hrs together, Jen has provided me with the strength that I have often called upon during our times in uncharted waters. She is my strength. She is my guide. She is my love.
Tuesday night was vindicating in every way. Her will, courage, and strength were breathtaking to witness as she delivered Serelle, our new little girl. To my frustration, I’m just not able to express in detail via typeface, what it was like to be next to Jen as she brought us our baby (I’ve been staring at the computer screen for an hour, but nothing I write seems to do it any justice), but what I will say is this: apparently, I was somehow very unaware of the level of strength she was capable of reaching. She blew me away.
Jen, I love you. Thank you for sharing your strength with me.

Now…on to Serelle Lundeen:
Serelle was born at 6:49 pm on Tuesday April 14, 2009. She weighed 6.0 lbs, was 17.5” long and came out crying. She is a great eater and a great sleeper. Plus, she is almost as beautiful as Jen.

OH MY GOSH I'M IN LOVE!
She's gorgeous, just GORGEOUS! And Serelle is so beautiful too! :) I'm so happy for you all. Poor lili looks traumatized a little still, but seemed to be okay once she got a baby too (AND a carrier).
Goodness I love you two. And thanks for sharing your strength with us too Jen.

I love that picture of Jen at the top of this post. Jen, you are gorgeous! Ky is so lucky to have married such a beautiful girl. And...I get to brag that I am somewhat related to you!
Now, when are you going to tell us the story of what happened? Were you induced? I can't remember the due date...was she early, late, or on time?
Anyway, congrats!!! We are so happy for you guys. Keep the pictures coming.
Love ya!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! She is so adorable!! I'm glad everything went well. You make such a cute family of 4 :)
Congrats guys. She is beautiful. Job well done.
Did you hear that the relief society presidency was making fun of mom because of her grandbaby's names? They said so far her grandkids are a bag, a boot, a color, a flower, and a bird.
I was laughing SO hard. I LOVE OUR NAMES!
Just wait until they find out that our baby (I AM NOT PREGNANT, for all of you who might be itching at that statement) will be named GENERAL, or CASHE.
A bag, a boot, a flower, a bird, a color, a rank, and currency. brilliant!
Congrats!!
She is beautiful.
love her name too. Ü
