The big day finally arrived - meeting my favorite baby in the whole world! After many video chats, I couldn’t wait to see the little cherub in person. He comes complete with chipmunk cheeks and all the baby chub you could ever want in a neat little 14 lb. package of cuteness. I sent his mommy and daddy out on a date while Corin and I had some bonding time of our own. However a handful of 30 minute naps throughout the day is not conducive to staying up late when you’re only 11 weeks old, and he fell asleep over dinner. At 7pm. I guess my bro has a few things to teach his son about dating etiquette! Despite the faux pas, I am totally in love, and there will be plenty of other opportunities for us to chat and get to know each other. In the meantime, here are some of the highlights of our fabulous weekend.

Side conversation with mommy and daddy
That’s hilarious!
Deep thoughts require a little fist chewing.
Auntie Jen also tells funny jokes!
Check out those ham hocks, er, legs.
Spa time!
“Hey paparazzi, do you mind? I’m trying to relax here.”
Everyone loves a chubby baby!
