We now introduce Gabriella.

Gabriella is here. This is her account of her arrival and what she did during her first day out in the world.

December 23rd, 2008
6:00am
I arrived at the Parkwest Hospital birthing suite while still in mommy's tummy.

6:06am
I got my last picture taken while inside of mommy.

8:00am
I was startled when all of the warm, comforting fluid around me started to go away. I felt as if my world was getting smaller and smaller.

8:45am
I could feel something squeezing on me every 3-5 minutes and it seemed to be hurting mommy. I hope mommy feels better. I am starting to feel a little drowsy so maybe the nice doctor gave mommy something to ease the pain.

9:30am
I noticed that mommy is a lot more relaxed and I could hear the voices of Aunt Heather and Mimi and Poppa. But I'm also getting squished every 2-3 minutes now. Something must be up.

11:15am
A nurse named Tracy just came and poked me in the head, then she told mommy and daddy that it was time to push. I didn't know what it meant at the time but it wasn't long before I'd find out. For the next twenty minutes or so, Tracy would tell mommy to push real hard and I'd feel that really hard squeezing and I could hear daddy counting and when he got to ten mommy would stop squeezing and pushing me.

11:36am
Mommy pushed real hard and all of a sudden everything was really bright and my head was cold. After a few more seconds, poof. I was born. It was really cold so I let a BIG cry so everybody in the room would know that I was not a happy camper. Then daddy cut the tube of life that connected me to mommy. I love her so much.

1:15pm
Mommy and Daddy have been loving on me for the last forty five minutes or so after the nurses got me all cleaned up. They keep saying I'm beautiful and that I'm perfect. I can already tell that they love me more than anything and that they will always take care of me.

I guess Aunt Heather, Mimi and Poppa were out in the waiting area because I hadn't heard their voices for a while. Everything happened so fast Mommy and Daddy didn't have time to tell everybody what was going down. Daddy text messaged Aunt Heather and told them to come check on Mommy, he didn't tell them that I was waiting for them. They entered the room one by one while Mommy was holding me and Daddy took pictures of their surprised reactions. Daddy is funny.

6:00pm
I've been having some visitors and a lot of people keep telling me how beautiful and special I am. I really must be something to get all of this attention. Daddy and Aunt Heather won't stop taking pictures of me. Well, I digress. Nana and Granddad made it! They drove all the way from Waynesboro, VA to see me today. They sure do love me a lot.

7:00pm
My mommy must be something special like me. People keep telling her how beautiful she looks and how she doesn't look like she could have given birth this morning. And Daddy keeps saying I'm gonna be "beautiful like my Mommy." I think, between my Mommy and me, Daddy is in big trouble.

8:00pm
The stream of visitors has dwindled down now. I know that I was the main attraction today but I get the feeling that all of those nice people that came by really love my parents too. My Mommy and Daddy just kept going on and on about how thankful they are for me, and all of the family and friends stopping by and helping out. They pray to Jesus and thank Him for His protective hand over Mommy's pregnancy and over today when I was born. I can't wait for Mommy and Daddy to tell me more about Jesus. They seem to really love Him.

9:00pm
It has been a pretty long day. I had my first taste of oxygen, colostrum, and ice cream. Well, maybe not ice cream but I hear it is absolutely wonderful. I'm hungry and tired so I think a little colostrum and nap is in order. (then I get to steal Mommy's sleep.) Goodnight, and I love all of you.

Sara = MSN

On Friday December 12th, at 1:00pm, Sara Danielle Deel graduated from the University of Tennessee with a Master's degree in Nursing.

I'm sure everybody is sick of reading me go on and on about how proud I am of Sara, but, it was a big day for her and I feel it is my duty to bring you news of it. We are so thankful for the strength the Lord blessed Sara with during the last two and a half years and especially the last nine months. Hours of studying Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology, Pharmacology, etc. Hours and hours of clinicals and for the last nine months doing them carrying our daughter Gabriella in her belly. I know she's happy for no more of the school stuff and only a little longer of carrying Gabriella around kangaroo style.

After the ceremony we went out to celebrate. It was a very special evening because we were celebrating Sara's academic achievement and it was also our last date night for a while. Regas Restaurant was deemed worthy of such an occasion with low lighting, the warm fire, and the little tray of bacon, almonds, and crumbled blue cheese for your salad. Dinner was great but before I get too carried away talking about food, I will change directions.


Sara, you've worked very hard over the last 30 months and it is no secret that I am proud of you. But what makes this so special and meaningful to me is how you did it. You did it while staying committed to me and our family every step of the way. Even though at times your work seemed daunting and I could tell it was taking a toll on you, I never felt as if I had taken a backseat to your ambition. I know a lot of the people you graduated with achieved success at the expense of not having a life and not having time for family. Not only was it the norm but it actually seemed expected. I laughed out loud when one of the speakers instructed the graduates in several ways to go out and enjoy a social life now. Has she seen your belly? I guess I just married a maverick.

By the way, even Dakota thinks that lady is funny. And he's proud of you too.

The Home Stretch.


Here we go...listening to how Sara is feeling, we are now in the home stretch. Just to let y'all know, you should be on standby to hear that Gabriella is coming this way. On Monday, December 1st we had a very anticipated and somewhat surprising doctor's visit. Sara had an ultrasound and we got to see just how cramped little Gabriella is and also that she weighs a whopping 7lbs 8oz! Praise Jesus, Gabriella is very healthy and Sara is very healthy as well. Although both Sara and baby are healthy, doesn't mean that all is peaches and cream in Sara's field. As you all know, she is built small and the task of carrying around a seven a half pound baby in her belly is really taking a toll on her. I know she can't wait to feel like her sprightly old self again and not like a marsupial with a sore back that can't find a comfortable position to sleep in.

I don't mean to make it seem as if Sara is miserable all of the time, I just feel bad that I cannot help comfort her and take away some of the anxiety that is naturally coming her way. Anyway, we are very excited and look forward very much to being able to alert everyone that Gabriella is coming. We were also excited this past Wednesday when we were able to visit the Biltmore Estate. The Christmas decorations were beautiful and we had a great time but it was nice to come back home and rest next our own Christmas decor.




This should catch everyone up on everything...except one last thing.

On Friday, December 12th, Sara will be graduating from the University of Tennessee with her Master's Degree in Nursing. I just wanted to make sure everyone knew;)

WWhhoooaaaa there. There's a baby in that belly!

Sara's pregnancy is moving along beautifully and after too much time passing, we are here to provide an updated status.

First I would like to thank so many people for all of the tremendous love and generosity exhibited over the last few months. I would like to single out a few people; our parents; Steve and Karen, Jerry and Susan; Sara's aunts Lisa and Gail, Sara's grandparents Jerry and Charlotte, and Margaret. Your gifts have meant so much but your enthusiasm and love for our daughter mean so much more I cannot properly describe it. I just wanted to start this update recognizing you.

Sara's belly is beautifully growing every day and it looks like Gabriella is dropping a bit. I believe it is now time to start the pool to predict the day that our little girl comes into this world. Even with Sara's belly noticably growing I still can't wait for the smack of reality that's coming when she shows up. It shouldn't be surprising that I often get overwhelmed with the desire to hold her and kiss her sweet baby head and her sweet baby feet.

We've been learning a lot recently as well. For the last month or so we've been attending baby classes at the hospital where Sara will be giving birth. It has really been an eye opening time and also a great anxiety reducer. We've been learning all about what's going on with Sara's body now, what to expect later, how to keep Sara as comfortable as possible, feeding, caring for Gabriella and this week we will be learning how to change a diaper! It's our last week and they saved the best lesson for the last one. I've never changed a diaper but if it's anything like throwing a ball or baking a pie I'm sure I'll be one of the top 5 diaper changers in Knox county. I can't wait for it and I know you can't wait for the update on that one...

I hope everybody has a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!

Sara's modesty keeps you uninformed.

I want to take this opportunity to brag about my wife and the mother of my daughter (same woman).

Sara updated you on the happenings with Gabi's bedroom and how great her last appointment went, but she failed to mention that she received the results for her Nursing Comprehensive Exam. She passed it wonderfully and I cannot begin to emote through words how proud I am of her but as always, I will try.

This is a time in our lives that it is very easy to see God's hand on our lives and I am so thankful for His blessings. Whether it is when finances don't look good and then things just work out, Sara's most grueling clinical work is late in pregnancy and she has the strength to finish and do well, or just this wonderful blessing of bringing a baby girl into this world, God provides and I'm thankful to receive it and to recognize it. I know that our family and friends have been praying for us and I want to thank all of you for those prayers.

Love you all, and Gabi does too, (she told me via morse code through Sara's belly)

Nesting...

It's official, we have begun what I can only assume is the nesting process! It all started with a visit to the OB. We went to the doctor on the 22nd for our 31 week appointment and another 3D ultrasound. Once again, we got good reports! Gabriella is growing like a weed and now weighs in at 4 lb, 8oz! Based on her measurements alone, the due date would actually be pushed up two more weeks! However, our official due date is still the same, we "expect" her to be here just before Christmas.

Everything else is looking great as well. Mommy is growing too with an added 17 pounds so far. (I can't believe I just admitted that so freely!) I am still anemic despite the two supplements I currently take. The OB added a third, so my poor stomach might not feel so great for a while! It's definitely worth it though, I'm really in the home stretch!
After our appointment, it dawned on both Stephen and I that Gabriella could realistically come anytime in December, especially with the way she's growing! We went straight to the furniture store (after the bank!) and paid off the balance on her crib and changing table. Thanks to some help from dad, we got it home that day and set it all up before the night was through! It actually feels like a nursery now. We still have several more items on our to-do list, but we are getting close. It's amazing how much a tiny baby needs! We were so overwhelmed at first, but thanks to so many wonderful people, we are getting the things we need.


More is soon to come...

Update time!!!

Alright this past week in itself has been jam-packed full of delightful events. I will begin with the most recent and work my way back.

Today, October 11th, Sara attended Gabriella's first baby shower! It was graciously hosted by Kathy Payne and I'm sure we'll be talking about it for a while. I'm won't go into specific detail about guests and gifts, but from Sara, Heather, and Karen's account, it was an excellent time. Thanks again to all of our friends and family who are helping us accumulate all of the things a baby girl needs. (unfortunately I do not have photos to post of this event but they are coming)
While Sara was representing Gabriella at the shower, I was getting some much needed R&R. This morning I woke up at 5:30 to eat breakfast and start warming up for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in downtown Knoxville. Sara and I went down to the event and were quite surprised at the vastness of it. Covering the field at World's Fair Park were 20 or so vendors promoting breast cancer awareness, making sure the runner's have what they needed. Even Starbucks was there handing out free coffee to be sure we all stayed caffeinated! It was very moving being around the breast cancer survivors and also those who were walking or running in memory of a loved one taken by the terrible disease or in celebration of a survivor. But today was a day of triumph, and I refused not to join in. It was my first official race ever and I ran hard and pretty well. I felt great afterwards and I cannot wait to run my next race.

FYI, this week I also decided to train for the Knoxville Marathon in March. If I can run it at 7:25 a mile, I will qualify for the Boston Marathon.

Wednesday, Oct 8th Sara completed her comphrensive exam for nursing school! I was talking about how proud she makes me and someone I work with asked me, "On a scale from 1 -10 how proud of her are you?"

I didn't verbally respond but instead held up both of my hands and I actually grew an extra finger on my right hand to authoritatively answer, "11!" But I digress...


Now that we're in the final stretch, we have been working on getting Gabriella's room transformed from an office to a nursery. Sara and her mom did a fantastic job of cleaning and organizing all of my junk that I had stowed away in the room. And I have been doing a little painting upstairs and downstairs. It's not all done but it is very close.












With all of the events to catch you up on, I forgot to mention just how well Sara and Gabriella are doing. They are working well as a team and everybody is very healthy.

Please keep Sara's sister, Heather, in your prayers as she is recovering from surgery to remove a cyst from her lower back.

A glimpse of our little girl...

It has been way too long since the last update! Here's one more post before we quickly move into October...

Last week, we had the opportunity to have our first 3D/4D ultrasound. At our OB office, they refer to it as the "bonding ultrasound"! What an amazing experience! Once again, we were able to see our daughter's growth and even get an glimpse of what she will look like! The pictures aren't crystal clear, but that hasn't stopped the ongoing debate of whose lips, chin, nose, etc. that she has! Let us know what you think:)


Here are a few more of our favorite pictures...



Her precious little feet! About two inches long!


Here she is sucking her thumb, or at least trying to!


Such a sweet little face

The ultrasound tech told us she doesn't usually see a baby with so many expressions!


Happy baby! Does this count as her first smile???



We are so thankful for our good report from the doctor. She assured us that Gabriella is growing and developing wonderfully. She now weighs 2 pounds, 7 ounces! In fact, the doctor has now 'officially' moved our due date back to December 23rd. Based on the ultrasound measurements, she might be even further ahead. They'll be keeping track and comparing her growth over the next month to see.

Keep us and our sweet baby in your prayers as we get closer and closer to her arrival.
Keep checking back, we love to hear your comments! We'll try to update often!

24 weeks...

I was taking pictures of Sara in our garden and I came away with this beauty...nice huh? Or I could've snapped one while she rested during a recent trip to the Biltmore Estate.

So we have reached our mark of 24 weeks and according to Sara, this is a big milestone for both her and the baby. Gabriella is weighing in at roughly two pounds! She's growing like a weed and kicking the whiz out of her mommy. We've actually enjoyed being able to sit and watch Sara's belly dance as Gabi gives her a sharp jab with a knee, elbow, heel or even the occasional head butt.


At our last ultrasound, a couple of weeks ago, we learned that she is looking to be a week ahead of schedule. So instead of sitting on pins and needles around New Year's, Sara might be sending me out on Christmas Eve to pick up "Baby's 1st Christmas" ornaments and stocking. We'll just have to wait and see! She's gonna be a sweet baby, but you don't have to take our word for it...

Here is a profile shot of Gabriella. Her face on the right is looking up so it gives you an idea



I know this is a hard one to tell, but if you look real close and hard you can see her foot. By my count, she has 5 perfect little toes...I can't wait to gobble 'em up.




I don't if you can see it, but she's waving at us in this one. And I think she was telling us it's only 5 more months until she gets to see us (this was an ultrasound from July). The biggest part is her belly, face is looking up on the right with her hand directly above it.

Stay tuned...we are going for a 3D/4D ultrasound on September 24th and are sure to get some great detailed shots.

10 = 6.2 = 51 mins 17 secs


It is 1:54 am and I am nearing the end of my cool down from my first 10k race. I was part of Nike's 10k Race for the Human Race. It was a great experience, although, I'm not happy with my time but if you were to subtract the time during which I had to make a pit stop with an upset stomach, it might look more like 46 mins. I may not be happy with the time but I am very satisfied with my effort. I'm looking forward continuing to train for more races and also my first triathlon some time next year. I remember how much fun it was waiting for my Dad to finish a race one Saturday morning in Waynesboro, VA long ago. I had no idea what place he came in or what his time was but I remember being so proud to be his son as he crossed the finish line. And now, as I look back I don't recall a time in the last 26.67 years where I haven't been proud to be his son.


Dad, as Gabriella gets older and we have more children, I can't wait to follow in your footsteps.

21 Weeks!!!



Gabriella is growing! Ergo Sara's belly is growing!


This has been exciting for me as I use my girls' growth as measuring tool for the timeline of Sara's pregnancy. It has not been as exciting for Sara as this continuing growth has been accompanied by pain and discomfort. Don't get me wrong, she's excited knowing that her baby is growing and kicking in there, but that doesn't dull the sharp kicks to the spleen and the feeling that your skin is being stretched over a watermelon.


That's right you read correctly, we can feel Gabriella moving and kicking! This started about a week ago and every night the movements get stronger and more numerous. This has been in direct correlation with the American hero Michael Phelps winning a record eight gold medals at the 2008 Olympic Games held in Beijing, China. Gabriella is going to be a swimmer just like her mommy.


<-----She is going to be soooo mad when she sees that I put this picture on our blog.

Anyway, we mentioned in a previous entry that we had some car trouble. We have solved that problem, we bought yet another Honda Accord. Gabriella will have a safe, dependable, four door, climate controlled vehicle to ride around in with her Mom. Also, we have begun the creation of Gabriella's wardrobe. It is more pink than any heterosexual male should ever have to endure, but what can I say. I just don't care. Because our daughter is going to be the most precious thing on this earth and she's going to wear pink, so I have to like it.

This summer is quickly coming to an end which bittersweet on a couple of levels. Sara and I have had a wonderful summer: Spending time at Mimi and Papa's new pool, visiting Nana and Granddad in Virginia and having them visit as well, seeing Kevin and Jamie (who gave Gabriella her first gift, I'll remind her to thank you), and we just hate to see all of that end. But fall is right around the corner and that means: School is starting back up, the leaves will be changing soon, the sun will shine a little different, football season is here, the WNBA is over, and the weather will provide a perfect crispness to each day, and Sara's third trimester begins soon.

I hope everyone had a great summer too! Here's to a great fall!

at 18 weeks...it's a GIRL!!!

I just wanted to share an excerpt from an email that I sent to people I work with detailing an experience that I had. I couldn't be too bold in how my faith was responsible for the extraordinary night when I shared with them. I've never felt so moved by the Holy Spirit and had such clarity of how precious our salvation through Jesus Christ is.


"My wife and I found out that we were going to be having a baby back in May. This past week, Thursday to be exact, we found out that our baby was more specifically a baby girl. Every man that grows up playing baseball dreams of teaching his little boy how to throw, but I know that a little girl's first love is her daddy. As Sara and I found out the news on Thursday I couldn't help but visualize how my daughter is going to think that her daddy hung the moon. However, being a thinker I quickly started becoming overwhelmed with the reality that a sweet, innocent baby girl is going to be relying on me for everything. Everything. It freaked me out.

Sara kept asking me what was wrong. Was I disappointed that baby is a girl and not a boy? Absolutely not. Todd at ET asked me on Saturday if I was okay because he could tell that I was much more quiet than normal. The people around me knew that something was heavy on my mind.

Tonight we returned home about 11:45 from sharing the news that our baby was going to be Gabriella Grace Deel instead of Micah Stephen Deel with family. At 12am, we laid down to sleep. At 12:15am I could tell that I was not falling asleep anytime soon. At 12:20am, I reached past my Supernovas and put on my Pegasus, my brand new Pegasus that I did not want to get dirty, and I went for a run. Something amazing happened.

During the first mile, I didn't notice any pain in my knee. My mind was free from dealing with the physical pain and instead focused on the beautiful miracle of the circle of life. During the second mile, I forgot that I had ever had any hip pain and instead envisioned the smell of my daughter's head when I kiss it right after her first bath. The way I'll feel the first time I make her smile. How I'll fall asleep holding her in a rocking chair in the middle of the night and wake up with her sleeping in my arms. Whether her nickname will be Gabbi, Ella, Brie, or if I'll always call her Gabriella. Whether she'll be spazzy and energetic like her dad or if she'll be focused and graceful like her mommy. Whether she'll have big cheek bones like her mom or if she'll have bushy eyebrows like her daddy.

At this point, I was hitting mile seven. The longest I'd ever run up to this point in my life was 4 miles. As I was running the last mile, I thought about what I want to be known as to my daughter. When she thinks of God fearing, strength, integrity, compassion, kindness, boldness, humbleness, dignity, sacrificing, and a passion for life; I want her to think of her dad.

During the eight miles I ran in the early hours of today I was able to marvel in the splendor of the baby girl my wife will give birth to in late December. The three days prior to that I was a nervous, anxious wreck. Now, after time in prayer, time with family, the hour in my Pegasus and the subsequent endorphins; that energy is being translated into passion for and about life."

thanks for reading

14 weeks, Looking forward to July 29th!

14 weeks....





Today Sara and I went to see the baby doctor for another check up and man, did it go well. We met with a different doctor than we normally do and this man was extremely nice, caring, and reassuring. Also, we were able to hear the heartbeat again and from the sound of it, he or she is going to be a runner. And speaking of he or she, the date when we find if our baby is a boy or a girl was bumped up and is now JULY 29th!!!

A month has past since we updated everyone last so I'll do my best to backtrack and fill in the blanks.

My dad celebrated his 60th birthday in June we were very blessed to be able to travel to visit with him and mom the weekend of his birthday. Also, it was great seeing my brother Kevin and sister in-law Jamie. I can't believe I hadn't seen them since the wedding last year. Bryan unfortunately was unable to make it up and we all missed him terribly.

Sara continued to complete clinical hours and started her summer class work and research project. She is doing marvelously but I know she is missing her last preceptor, Janus was not just a mentor but a friend as well.

I had a little car trouble and because of this Sara and I are currently looking at vehicles that are fuel efficient, dependable, and baby friendly. This happened just as we started to look at buying a new condo so it was easy to get discouraged about the situation. But instead, after a night and day praying about it, Sara and I were able see how the Lord was working in this situation.

1. We were needing a new car for the baby.
2. We are considering buying a new condo.
3. When we first started looking at condos, we weren't budgeting for a car payment.

It seemed as if God was saying "Hold on, step back and look at this whole picture before you dive into the condo."

Can I say THANK YOU JESUS!

An Amazing Time of Growth

Sara is officially nine weeks pregnant now! She has been a trooper through all of the morning sickness, not to mention, the afternoon and evening sickness as well. The speedy growth of the baby is also wearing her down during the day. I have felt bad for her as she goes through this but I like to search for a silver lining. Other than the obvious reason of a baby growing inside of her; I've enjoyed this first trimester because of her crazy food cravings. It's nothing too shocking like pickle juice and peanut butter, but the craving of greasy foods, i.e. burgers, pizza, and mexican have really made for some interesting grocery runs at 11 pm.

We went at 7 weeks and heard our baby's heart beat. It was amazing, I was frozen with amazement when I first saw the heartbeat on the ultrasound screen and then to hear it brought me to tears. I cannot wait to be a dad.

Last Tuesday, at 8 weeks Sara went back for another ultrasound and the baby's heart rate was 144 beats per minute! I wasn't able to go but Sara's mom was there with her, I know she enjoyed that.

Right now it's just helping Sara stay comfortable and keeping her stomach settled. Keep praying for us and the baby!

Time to catch you up



Ok, so it's only been about 5 months since we wrote last, so there may be a little to catch you up on, such as; Sara's boards, Sara's school, Stephen's job, and general family news. Oh and the random pictures here are from the two trips we took to the Biltmore Estate in March and April.



Sara's boards were actually delayed until the first week of February because the school was being very lazy with sending in the students' registration information for the exams. After it was all said and done, Sara aced 'em! That's right, there were a minimum of 75 questions and everytime you answered one correctly the questions got more difficult and say if you missed one, you would have to take 76 questions, and well...Sara only had to answer 75 questions! She's so smart it hurts my head.




Meanwhile, she's been kicking butt in her classes and she's been dominating her clinicals at a family practice in Oak Ridge much like Shaq dominated in the late '90s. She'll continue her clinicals through the summer too.





Since the last few weeks of December, I have been working exclusively at my old company Sport Seasons. In January they came to me and asked me to help them manage the store at Knoxville Center mall. The commute stinks, but I enjoy the work and it's been great while I search for a new job in the financial world.





On Saturday April 19th, Sara and I went to the Dollar General in Farragut and purchased two tests. At first they seemed to each produce a negative result, but when a few minutes passed, the faintest pink line showed up. We were elated but still nervous because the tests say the results are invalid after 5 mins, and it had been around 6 or 7. Sunday we took two more tests and one was negative and the other (digital test) read "error." Having no idea what this meant for us, we went to the dr.'s office on Monday for routine bloodwork for Sara and asked them if they could run a pregnancy test as well. The nurse appeared out of the back and told us the test was negative. I was crushed, speechless and worried about Sara all at the same time. Deep down, I was embarrassed for the nurse because I knew she was wrong, I just knew it. After she saw the disappointment on our faces she kindly said she would run another test using a different method. When she appeared the second time there was the faintest pink line, but just faint enough to cause doubt and hope at the same time.



At about 12pm the next day, the lab called Sara to tell her where her hormone levels were at, and also by the way to tell her, we are in fact:






I'm going to be a daddy!

Sara's going to be a mommy!

And we're going to parents!





That's right, all moms and dads, you're going to be grandparents, all brothers and sisters, you're going to be uncles and aunts.






Stay tuned for more news...
