Jeff Kurkjian’s daughter is here! We are so excited for that and to have him back on the airwaves of Coyote Country.

On August 10th at 3:56 a.m., Jeff and Emily Kurkjian welcomed their baby girl, McKinley Hope, into the world. We are so excited to share this moment and photos with Coyote Country. But first, here was the moment I told the morning show in Philadelphia the big news!

Gender Reveal For A Baby Girl

I got the help of a local school to help me out with the big gender reveal to the morning show (and the world in fact). Check out our classroom cover of “Lady” by Brett Young, my coworkers had no idea what we were having.

Thank you Sandy Run Middle School for having us for this fun afternoon.

How To Tell Your Husband You’re Pregnant

I have to give some serious credit to Emily, my amazing and beautiful wife, for capturing the moment she told me that she was pregnant. The emotions were running high as you imagine. She set up her camera and placed the pregnancy test right next to my lunch (a quesadilla).

We call this the imfamous quesadilla video because of the placement of the video camera!

Time To Get Serious About The Birth

Emily went into the hospital the evening of Tuesday, August 8th to be induced since she was due all the way back on August 4th and they didn’t want her going past 41 weeks.

We arrived but little did we know that we wouldn’t meet McKinley Hope for another 30 or so hours. Emily had some complications but ultimately, she absolutely crushed it. I am and will always be in shock and awe as to what she did for this family. Never had more respect for every mother on earth since August 10th, truly amazing superheroes, all of them.

So glad we can share with you these photos of Jeff Kurkjian’s daughter, McKinley Hope!
