My sister Sarah had her baby on January 5th. They named her Madelyn Page LeSueur. She was a little tiny baby at 6 lbs 4 oz and 19 inches, and she looks exactly like Max did as a baby. Sarah went in to be induced at 10 pm on January 4th. After the nurse broke her water the next morning Sarah went from 3 cm dilated to 10 cm dilated in 17 minutes! We were all surprised that she came so fast. My parents went to Texas on the 4th, so that they could watch Max while Sarah had the baby. I was planning on going to visit a little later, but after she was born I wished that I could be there. I ended up buying a plane ticket to fly there that evening and I drove back with my parents. We are so excited that she is here!
We stopped at the hospital after my parents picked me up at the airport, so I got to see Madelyn on the day that she was born!
Madelyn had jaundice, so she had to hang out under the blue lights. They ended up staying in the hospital an extra day because of the jaundice. It was so sad to not be able to hold her, but she actually seemed to like the lights.

She was so content to be dressed and snuggled up in a blanket after she got home!
We also had fun hanging out with Max! It did make me miss my little Caden though. He stayed home with Matt, and it was the longest that I have been away from him.
Max was clapping because he approved of his drink. :)
