BRAILEY RENEE MAYFIELD IS HERE!!!!

Brailey Reneey Mayfield was born on February 14th at 7:55 am. She was 8lbs. 7 oz. and 20 1/4 in. We had a rough start - with me having near pnemonia and then spinal headaches which put me back into a surgical center to have a procedure done called a blood patch. They took blood out of my arm and put it back into my back - epirdural style - to patch the hole left from the spinal. I guess when I would stand up brain fluid was leaking out of the hole and causing horrible headaches that would only go away when I would lay down. PRAISE GOD all is well now and I can enjoy this beautiful little girl that God has given our family! Enjoy!!

Braden holding his sister - I think he likes her!



This is Brailey's "going home from the hospital" outfit!


Daddy holding both of his babies!!! This is basically how it is...if we lay with Brailey, Braden wants to be right there - it is really sweet!




Couldn't ask for a better BIG BROTHER!




She likes to make this face a lot! A friend calls it "kissy lips"!


This is her first Sunday in church!





These last three are pictures of Braden when he was about the same age. Other than him being bigger - they are almost identical!
