Welcome, Hayden!

Our son, Hayden Michael Loo, was born June 9th, 2010, at 9:06 AM, in American Fork, Utah. He weighed 8 lbs, 10 oz and was 19.5 inches tall. We had a lot of family in town that weekend, and they all wanted me to go into labor and have the baby while they were there. Unfortunately for them, Hayden decided to come the day after they stopped trying to induce me and traveled back to their homes. Of course after they left, I got a stomach bug that put me into labor. So after hours of throwing up and having contractions, I went to the hospital and they gave me wonderful anti-nausea medicine and told me I was going to have a baby soon. After that, Jared and I had a quiet night in the hospital, thanks to an epidural, and our sweet Hayden joined us in the morning. Brianna and Sydney came a little later and fell in love with their new baby brother. Hayden was born with an amazing calm and content attitude. I have never seen a baby as quiet and happy as he has constantly been. It is a testimony that Heavenly Father knows us all and our individual needs! He knew that I have my hands full with my beautiful, vivacious, and very active daughters, and that a calm and quiet baby would be just what I needed in order to stay sane! And now we have three children! I am so grateful for all of them, and for a wonderful husband who just happens to also be the best dad in the world!
