The Newest Member of our Family!


Katelyn Mortensen was born at 9:05 p.m. on September 15, 2008! She weighed in at 8 lbs. 13 oz. and was 20.5 inches long! Katelyn was much smaller than Adrie so I only had to push three times! It was definitely an easier recovery. It would have been perfect if the epidural worked on the lower half of my body but when all was said and done I can walk!! Yeah! I felt a whole lot of pain for the last hour of labor but it was definitely better than two months after the delivery!

Adrie is a proud big sister!



Adrie loves her little sister! Katelyn looks a lot like Adrie when she was a newborn!
