Rylin Grant Jarrard
was born on Friday, March 20, 2009 at 3:27AM at Northside Forsyth Hospital. Her due date was April 5th, so she was almost 3 weeks early. She weighed 6 pounds 13 oz. and was 19 1/4 inches long. She has lots of black hair like Travis and the normal slate-blue baby eyes. She is so tiny!! Addyson seems so huge to me now. She's a really good baby and is the sweetest thing. We all just want to gobble her up.
Me in the delivery room the night I delivered Rylin.
This is either before or after my epidural...I can't remember!
Travis was listening to the NCAA wrestling tournament on his computer and filling in brackets while we waited for me to dilate from a 6 to a 10.
Here she is! Her first picture taken by Daddy! Getting her lungs sucked out. She looks pretty mad.
Rylin's 1st "Weigh In" as Daddy likes to say.
6 pounds 13 ounces
Her First Bath...She loved getting her hair washed and combed. My kind of girl.
All clean now and Mommy gets to cuddle with her.
We are so proud!
Me, Rylin, Dr. Angela Nix, and my good friend Emily Slaugh who was the nurse who helped deliver Rylin. It was so great having a friend there with me the entire time, and Dr. Nix was there a lot too. I lucked out!!
The whole delivery gang.

We are all dead tired....I think this was taken at 4:00AM or close to it.

SISTERS!
Rylin had some more visitors!
Thanks you guys for coming to see us! It made me feel loved.
Lazette kept my girls the entire time! She was such a blessing to us.
Andrea came by to snuggle Rylin too!
And Kristan came by to bring Mommy flowers and to, of course, hold Rylin.
It was tough for me not having my parents there at the hospital, but having my wonderful husband and friends there made it such a great experience.
Proud Daddy....Wonderful Husband
I love you Travis.

She is so cute! Seriously. At only six pounds, she sure has some pinchable cheeks already!
Great family pictures.
I think my goal is to look as gorgeous as you while I'm laying in the hospital bed waiting to dilate.
Congrats!
What a cutie! I love her dark hair and round little face. You look great and what a beautiful family you have.
She is adorable, Kate! Congratulations!!!
Way to get out of 3 weeks of pregnancy - glad she is doing well and so glad she is a good baby for all of you! Where are your parents? I'm sure they missed being there too. Cute family pic - I can't imagine having so many girls - I'd never be able to do all that hair!
Really, Kate. I don't think I've ever seen anyone look so good in the hospital. And your little family is just precious. Congratulations!!!
Love all the pics and love her middle name! ;)
WELCOME BABY RYLIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a little doll -- so sweet and round! We can not wait to hold that cute girl! Katie, you look fabulous -- and the whole family looks just perfect. Such a proud papa and sisters! I LOVED all the pictures. CONGRATULATIONS!!! We love you all so much!!!!!!!!
I'm so proud of you guys. You have such a great family and are such great parents!
My favorite thing is asking Addison about Rylin and hearing her say her name.
Love you!
Congrats! She is so cute. So much hair!!
I bet your parents are bummed they missed it but will be happy everything went ok :) You managed of course!!
Hugs....are ya gonna try for a boy? Or are 3 girls enough?
Congratulations Kate! Rylin is beautiful and i echo what someone else said- You really shouldn't look so good in the hospital. If you get out of your pajamas and put on make-up too soon then people will think you don;t need any help!:) You have a gorgeous family and 3 girls is crazy- but fun!
She is so beautiful! Congratulations! What is Travis going to do with all the ladies?!!
she's beautiful!! you seriously need to share the girl recipe with me:) Yours are darling! Congrats! You look fabulous!! and very cool your parents and my inlaws became friends. My inlaws said they were going to give your parents my parents blog address (wow does that make sense?) it is shaunarobbins.blogspot.com. Will you give it to them?
You have such a perfect family! Rylin is the perfect addition! Thanks for letting me be a part of it! It was so fun to be there... even at 4 in the morning! :) You are an amazing person! Love you girl!
Welcome to the Mom of 3 club! You will have a blast but first you have to start sleeping again:-) Congratulations! She is beautiful.
Congratulations Kate! She's just beautiful and you've got an amazing family! What a blessing! I'm sure you're having a blast loving on your three precious girls at home now. I didn't know you had a blog. I'll be sure to check it out more often.
Love,
Jen
Kate, congratulations on your new baby Rylin! she is adorable. You really look wonderful after having a new baby.
Such a cute little family. Your Travis is one lucky man! Congrats to all of you.
I'm lovin' the hair on Travis in the second to last picture! True "all nighter" doo. You look fabulous, as always. Rylin is just too sweet. I'm so jealous...I wish I could come smooch on her chub-cheeks! I'm so glad everything went smoothly despite your parents vacation planning. Thank goodness for great friends!
Hey Kate. All of your babies are precious. Congratulations on your newest addition. You are a great mommy and your kids are blessed!
Kate dear, you have a beautiful family. Congratulations on number three.
