the little man is here!

so he *is* finally here!  my little sister was induced this past friday, july 22nd, and gave birth to a very cute baby boy.  things went smooth, and both mom and baby are doing great.

i've been loving on this little guy... and people have been asking me if i'm baby hungry.  i've never been baby hungry my entire life, and i think it's kind of funny how people look at a newborn and think "oh, i want one". did i want my kids?  of course!  and i love them.  i really treasured the time they were newborns, too (minus the sleep deprivation).  so yeah, they are the sweetest little thing, but to get a newborn, one must go through 9 full months of pregnancy discomforts, labor, delivery, post postpartum pains... so they can hold a little person that won't look like a newborn anymore in 2 weeks.  so no, i'm not at all baby hungry.  however i am thoroughly loving being an aunt and holding my adorable little nephew.  he is so sweet and little, and so amazingly perfect... and when he cries, off to mom he goes!  i LOVE it...being an aunt is awesome! :)

here are  a few pics of our little man, the newest addition to the family.
