Sweet baby Kyden! You came into the world June 23, 2022 as peacefully as your little soul. The pregnancy was rough with more sickness the entire pregnancy than I experienced with the other two. You didn’t like me drinking coffee (not even decaf) and I soon banned Jason from going to 7Brew for a bit til that aversion passed. You loved me eating basically anything but also wanted me to feel sick most days. Thankful for zofran to help me through that last stage of pregnancy!

Back to your birth story, we went in the night before you were to come like we have for Zayden & Ryken and you wanted to come a little sooner than the other two but due to EVERYONE having babies that day and shortage of nurses, we had to make you wait about an hour to make your appearance. With the head of a little sweet giant and as long as I could have ever imagined, you are perfect just as God made you. We originally had some worries for your development, specifically your kidneys due to you having a one vessel umbilical cord BUT you showed us and powered through that. Thankfully an ultrasound showed no kidney issues, hearing tests and blood tests all looked good. You did have quite a bit of bilirubin in your system & rapid breathing, so we did have to bring some blue lights home and monitored you til that was out of your system. 5ish days later you were getting much closer to your normal self. We continued to monitor your quick heartbeat and rapid breathing for a few months but we don’t see any issues anymore, Praise God!

You were born with beautiful deep red birth marks above your eyes, we call it a built in eye shadow, some call it angel kisses. I have no doubt you multiple sibling angels giving you kisses the second they could. ❤️

Your brother and sister met you via phone call but they really fell in love with you the second they got to hold you. Zayden loves when you look at him and smile, and Ryken just loves having a baby sister. Ryken continues to ask me daily if you’re her baby sister, and when I tell her you are, she replies with an overly excited, “REALLY? AW, BABY SISTER.” And Zayden ensures you don’t go a day without knowing how cute you are, especially when your eyes are open! ❤️ You will never have a shortage of cheerleaders in your life.

Your little personality is very chill. You go with the flow, you don’t demand too much attention unless you’re tired or hungry and girl we all get that. I can’t wait to see how your calm demeanor unfolds in this chaos of a home you have been born into!
