a new buddy for miles...

I'm a little late in announcing this, but I wanted to do a little post for my new nephew Drew! {Miles is so excited to have another little boy on my side of the family to balance out all that estrogen.}

He's ridiculously cute and I just want to *SQUEEZE* the stuffing right out of him. Thankfully, it was a very fast and smooth delivery-though I do have a bone to pick about the timing.

I told Alisa earlier in the day that whenever she decided to have the baby, she just needed to do it at a respectable hour. {Last time my mom and I spent the night on the conference room floor waiting-not very amusing, but worth it} She, however, did not listen to me. I got a call at 1:30am, just an hour and a half after my tired little head hit the pillow. Very sweet.

Needless to say, I zipped to the hospital, called my sister in Chicago and my devastated-vacationing mom in San Fran, and 3 hours later, the man of the hour arrived. Just before 5:00am.

It was such an indescribeable experience to be there to welcome a new little one into the world. Beautiful. Alisa did so well and there were no complications which was a HUGE sigh of relief. I'm so proud of my baby sis {and mother of TWO?!!-man I'm old}. She is such an amazing woman and I feel so blessed to have her in my life. So, thanks for letting me be a part of your day. I love you guys!

{on a side note, I still have her maternity pictures to post that were taken THE DAY BEFORE she went in to labor. Talk about "in the nick of time". For someone a day away from giving birth, she was annoyingly GORGEOUS. You'll know what I mean when you see them.}

p.s. I realize these photos aren't perfect technically (high ISO, no flash etc.), but I LOVE them. So be kind:)

more miracles

Will wonders never cease? I'm back again! So proud of myself. {heehee}

Ok, so I knew Amy in highschool but hadn't seen her in years and was thrilled to be able to see her and meet her little family. These pictures are actually a second try to get a family picture. The first round, little Miss -I- was not amused by the thought of sitting with mom and dad. So, we tried again. She was crazy good, and cooperative. So, hopefully you like them Amy! And thanks again.
