Welcome Baby Abigail!

Meet baby Abigail.



First baby for my nephew Chris and his wife Angie. Born March 5th; 8 pounds :: 4 ounces :: 19 inches long.


She has Chris's mouth and Angie's nose and adorable round cheeks and wrinkly baby bird legs. Long baby fingers and long wrinkly baby toes and two sweet baby dimples. She's such a smart girl! She loves her binky (Angie's sister and I didn't have the heart to steal the binky from her while I snapped a few pictures). She has the sweetest little disposition and a soft, sweet newborn cry. She is so adorable!



The kids and were able to go and meet her the day after she was born. It was fun to see Chris as the proud papa that he is and Angie is doing wonderful especially since she was in labor for 26 hours!! Such a mama bear she is. She's great-grandbaby number four and it's funny that I realized that I was a great aunt when I was driving to their house. Chris and I have always been so close to each other in age (he's actually a month older then me) that I never really think of myself as "the aunt". Nevertheless, she is sweet and lovely and we are happy to have her in the family! Hopefully, she will think of me as the GREAT aunt that is fun and not great aunt that is old. Hee hee!

She's so cute!! I must admit, I feel horribly for not going to visit yet- it's not that I don't want to, but that our household has been SO sick that I haven't wanted to risk taking some germs with me. My little fam isn't sick- but the rest of the house is. Bummer, hopefully I can go see her soon! Cool that we share the same birthday.
