Kaylee Rae Dykstra is here!

Amanda is the one on the right - Due April 5 - well that changed!!
Amanda went in for an appt. on Tues and was checked and dialating already - they did an ultrasound and found baby to be breech. She went in Thursday morning to try and have baby turned - they put her on a monitor and found out she was in labor - dialated to 3-4 already - tried 45 minutes to turn baby and couldn't - checked her again and was at a 5 - didn't want baby to go down in birth canal - so did an emergency c-section and Baby arrived early by noon on Thursday!


This is on our way home from state basketball in Des Moines - we went straight to Orange City to meet Kaylee for the first time - she is ADORABLE of course and so sweet and small - she was 6lb.3oz. and around 19 inches long.




Jamie was too excited to - Amanda and baby are doing very well - and they went home on Saturday already - and we went shopping for baby in Des Moines and got her a swimsuit and sunglasses so she will be ready for the beach this summer.
