Here's the pics of our newest cutie!
Her brothers and sisters adore her, almost to death. (literally in Caleb's case)
Her name is Adalyn Rae Fox. She was born August 26th at 1:37 a.m. She weighed 6 lbs. 11 oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long.She mostly looks like Jenna, but has hands and feet like none we've seen in this family...very long and skinny.
And for those who want the gory details, we got to the hospital at about 11 p.m., but I was only dilated to a 3, so they told me to take a walk. As soon as I started walking, the contractions started coming 2 minutes apart and very hard. So we went back and I was dilated to a 4 and they admitted me. I kept telling the nurse that I go really fast, and really wanted an epidural, but she was frustratingly slow about everything. By the time she called the anesthesiologist, I was dying and he was tied up in trauma. By the time the on call guy got there, I was dilated to an 8 1/2 and going fast. He gave me a spinal block, which was a huge relief, but again, like with Caleb, no time for an actual epidural. But after the spinal block, I was able to smile again and was overjoyed when the whole thing was over. 
Adalyn is the best baby. Very happy and content and sleeps like a champ!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! She is absolutely beautiful! I am so happy for you guys!
P.S. I just realized that we have had all these Fox side baby girls this year...and all their names start with A!
Adalyn! I love her name. Congratulations
She is beautiful and I love her name! That was one of the names I was thinking of before we named Lizzie. Congratulations, and I am so very glad that is over for you. I felt pained as I was reading the gory details.
Congrats!! Sorry you didn't get your epidural...sounds a lot like an Army hospital story. ;-)
Congrats!! She is so cute!!! I'm glad she is a good baby. That's is such a help to a mom of many young children.

What a cutie! I can not wait to meet her!!!!
Congratulations! She's a cutie, just like your others. I'm glad things went well.
How fun! She is so sweet! Glad you could get some kind of happy medicine. Those epidurals can be so frustrating. Don't they know they need to have a doctor assigned just to the maternity ward?! Congratulations!!
Congratulations on your beautiful little girl! Looks like you have lots of happy helpers there.
WOO HOO! Congratulations! The pregnancy is over... of course, now its the whole jugling infant and Caleb and sisters, but totally doable for a superwoman like you. You're a rock star and your kids are ALL gorgeous! CONGRATULATIONS and love to the family!
Congratulations Kellianne! She is adorable. I am so happy for you and your growing family!
Congrats Kellianne! She is beautiful. And congrats to Aaron on the new calling...he will do a great job.
Both baby and mom are beautiful! I've been thinking about you a lot lately, and I miss you! Congrats on all the exciting changes that are going on in your life! Any chance you guys will be coming to General Conference weekend this fall? Take care, my friend!
congrats on baby #4! wow! she is beautiful, just like the rest of those kiddos :)

Congratulations! I am Aaron's cousin Clayton's wife Brooke. I just found your blog. I thought I'd let you know that our son Andrew was born with very long and skinny hands and feet. He and Adalyn would be 2nd cousins - so maybe it does run in the family :)
