Karalyn's Blessing

We went into Mesa yesterday for my sweet neice's blessing. She looked so lovely with her perfect little dress & bow to match. It was really touching watching my little brother bless his daughter. I sure do love my brother, his wife (my sis) and their beautiful baby girl.

Ryan, Me and Karalyn

Our family - don't the kids look so excited? They didn't get much sleep - we had to wake up WAY earlier than we usually do.

All of us - aren't we a handsome bunch?

Thanks for sharing your special day with us! We love you!

Introducing...

Karalyn - 6 pds 6 oz - 19 inches

My bro & Jessica aren't quite sure about what they want her full name to be, but this is what was written on her board in her delivery room, so we'll call her Karalyn for now :)

She's the cutest little thing! I headed to the hospital just after Tony got home from taking Alex to school & I didn't even make it in time for the delivery! My SIL had an awesome labor & delivery that only lasted from when her water broke at 2am until about 8:30am when Karalyn came out! How awesome is that? Thankfully Jessica was able to have an epidural before Karalyn was born she didn't have to feel too much of it.

This sweet little girl is such a beautiful addition to our family. I love her so much already. Tony had to go to work today, so I didn't get to spend too much time at the hospital with them, but hopefully I'll see them again this weekend.

I can't wait to snuggle on my own little one . . . just 2 1/2 weeks to go!

Welcome Karalyn, we love you!!
