My sister Nikki & her husband Jordan (pictured here) had their B-A-B-Y yesterday! Nikki is the youngest of the Jones sisters and the one to prove once & for all that we really do all experience childbirth the same way: short & sweet (okay, mabye not so sweet - is it ever really sweet?). I am currently holding the longest labor record at around an hour. Doni, who is just younger than I am, holds the record for the shortest labor that had better not be broken as she delivered (no joke) in the toilet after a race to the hospital. Nikki hit a happy medium at 20 minutes of labor. She worked all day, went home at 3, had some contractions, and then went over to her mother in-laws for some company. She had planned on a home birth with a midwife, but alas, her mother-in-law ended up delivering the baby as it just came too quickly. Now would your mother-in-law be ready for that? The healthy, 6-lb., 18 inch long baby was named Dalley, which I am told is a horse or bridle term as Nikki has now been converted to cowboyism. Congratulations Nikki!!!

Wouldn't that be sweet to have labor like that! You lucky girls.
Congrats to Nikki. How exciting.
I can't believe you had an hour labor my goodness!
Congrats to your beautiful sister Nikki!! I had Trevor in an hour and a half and it was scary! I can't believe she had the baby so quickly (and your other sister in the toilet). What a fun story to tell!
