it took a while for her to get moving, but once she decided she was ready to come out...it was pretty quick! mary is doing good, still in awe that this beautiful little baby was inside her just yesterday. it is so amazing, all the tiny details connected in childbirth. it makes me wonder how one could not believe in such a detailed maker that we have! a quote i found for mary while she was in her days of labor.  
"If I had my life to live over, instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished ever moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle."
Irma Bombeck
yesterday, God used mary to assist him in a miracle.bringing this baby into the world.
i watched a little bit of the birth video & this was right after the baby was born. she was crying that sweet newborn sound. in the background of the video you can hear the midwife say, she can't see her mom...
 they tipped her back & she was quiet! all she needed was to see her mama's face! i love this picture, such love in that little baby's eyes. 
 welcome to the world, adelynne! bentley is excited to come visit. and play. and be best friends.
