It is with great joy and pride that Joe and I introduce to you our new daughter, Nayeli Sol! She was born on November 26 at 3:39 am in Cottonwood, Arizona. She was only 4 hours away from being born on her papa's birthday, which was the 25th, but instead she was born on her cousin Tessa Devine's birthday! November truly is a blessed month with the celebration of Thanksgiving, giving thanks for all blessings in our lives including the cool people born this month!
Nayeli was born at the hospital after many, many hours of trying to birth her at home. I started having contractions at 3 am on November 25th. The midwife and her assistants came over to the home at 8am and by 4 pm I was fully dilated and ready to push. So for the next 5-6 hours I pushed and pushed and pushed Nayeli down to as far as she would go. I eventually ran out of energy & stamina (I had only 3 hours of sleep before the contractions started and kept me up) and had to be transported to Verde Valley Medical Center where I pushed for many more hours until the doctor offered to use the forceps to help deliver Nayeli because she was obviously stuck. Apparently the infamous Devine head was stuck under my pelvic bone and wouldn't allow her free passage! With a couple of tugs from the doctor she was finally born into our wonderful world--all 7 lbs. 13 oz. of her! She is a total doll and we love her so much already--sometimes it feels our hearts will explode with all the love we feel for this little girl! We very much look forward to introducing her to all of our beloved family and friends and creating special and loving memories with her.

Sienna and I shed a few tears of joy as we read about Nayeli. However, I think Sienna was crying because she wanted more mango. Nevertheless, she is so excited to have another cousin to soon play with. I am glad to hear everyone is healthy. Congratulations! you are an amazing woman Anna! You both are already amazing parents.
