Layla Skye Powers

After being pregnant for 41 weeks, Miss Layla Skye finally made her entrance the world on July 14, 2011 at 4:02 pm at a whooping 9 pounds and 3.6 ounces! Words can not be began to explain the joy we felt when we first saw her. Layla gave us a scare when she was born. During her journey into this lovely world she swallowed menoconium (bowel movement). As a result she was quickly whisked away when she was born. Adam unfortunately was not able to cut the umbilical cord. Those first few minutes of her life was very scary. As a mom I felt so helpless since I could not be at her side. But daddy was right there with his baby girl. NICU team gave her the all clear and she has been in Daddy's arms ever since.
