Oh the Joy that Babies Bring

About 24 hours ago our family had a sweet new addition!! Daddy's little sis, Rudy, welcomed Baby D-Man into this world! He is just as little as my LilE was, weighing in at 6lbs, 9oz.
This is where I really do not enjoy living on the East coast. I know God has us here for a purpose, and I love being here and the friends that are now in my life, but I want to wrap my arms around that sweet boy and love, love, love on him!! I want to go over and rock him while his mommy and daddy slip in a quick nap. I want to make them a great dinner so they don't have to cook. I want to baby sit so they can have a date night. I want to sit and read him books. I want LilE to know and enjoy playing with her cousin.
I can't wait until Christmas and spend a week with the sweet new family!

K. you are such a sweetie to offer so much. I guess I will have to do those things for you until you arrive at Christmas time.

What a sweet little boy. Congrats to both mom, dad, and Nonnie.

He is so adorable! I know exactly how you feel. I go through those feelings any time something big happens up home. Even though we know that we are where God wants us to be, it's still hard to miss those important moments. Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday. =)
