A New Nephew

Back on February 15 my brother called in a panic. It seems my SIL was going into labor and their plan of having her mom come and watch the kids wasn't working. They couldn't get ahold of her and Talia wanted to get to the hospital "right now" and would I please come over. I was out the door in 5 minutes arriving at about 6:00ish. They were out the door by 6:30 because my brother was adamant about installing the car seat and he needed to vacuum out the car. Don't ask. Brothers do weird things when their wife is in labor. Darren called about an hour and a half later saying that Talia already delivered the baby. Bennett came fast and furious, but at least it was at the hospital and not in the freshly vacuumed car! He was a chubby little thing and big compared to her other two peanuts. Welcome to the world Bennett Gabriel! We can't wait to watch you grow.

A happy family.

Proud (and tired) mom and dad.

Skip to the last weekend in April when Bennett was baptized. Here he is at 10 weeks!

Proud auntie.
