Introducing Dr. Brown!!



Ben is finally a dentist! After 4 years of hard work Ben graduated dental school on friday! Since little Felicity decided to come early Alex wasn't able to attend the graduation ceremony! But all of Ben's family was came into town to celebrate! A few nights before Ben's parents, Scott and I and Ben's sister Niccole went to an honorary dinner with Ben to honor him for graduating at the top of his class. Then Friday morning we all got up and headed down to USC for the graduation ceremony! Steph and Nessa stayed home with Alex to help her take care of Felicity and get ready for Ben's little party! At first we were going to just have a nice BBQ with all of the family after the graduation but Steph and Nessa wanted to do a little something special for Ben and at the last minute through together an amazing sunset dinner with delicious steaks and treats! It was beautifully done and we all had such a fun time together! We couldn't be more proud of Ben and his achievements! We love him so much and couldn't have been blessed with a better son (in - law) if we picked him ourself! We Love You Ben!!! Congratulations!

Welcome To The World Felicity Brown!

Felicity Brown is finally here!
So I went up to Utah on May 5th to move Vanessa and Stephanie home from school for the summer. Vanessa had her last final that Friday morning the 7th and then we were going to start driving home. The only reason I cam was because Alex wasn't due until the 20th of May. Well the next day the 6th I am helping a sick Vanessa finish packing and I get a call from Ben telling me that Alex went in for her doctors appointment and had pre-clampsia so they were heading to the hospital to have the baby! Of course panic set in of how I was going to get home! After a lot of different ideas and stressing we decided we were going to fly home right away and move the girls out later! Vanessa was able to take her last final early and we were off to the airport. We arrived at LAX around 10 PM and Scott picked us up. We arrived at the hospital around 10:30 and Alex was doing well and only dilated to a 4! We made it now all we had to do was wait! Then after only 2 pushes from mom... Felicity was born at 4:15 AM on May 7th weighing 4 pounds 15 ounces and 19 inches. Both Alex and Felicity are healthy and happy and we all couldn't be more excited! We love her so much already is is amazing!!
