New baby in the family…

Last night, after almost 24 hours of labour… my little brother’s wife gave birth to a baby girl. At 10 pounds, 4 ounces… she’s a big girl but only two more pounds than Jonation was when he hatched. So here is a picture of my first niece, Emma Frances:

First thing I noticed when I saw this picture is what a head of hair on that kid! She’s definitely going to have hair a lot darker hair than the two blondies I have over here on the go. I’m happy to hear that both Mommy and baby are doing well, and my brother sounds exhausted when i talked to him last night.

So it’s cool to no longer be the only member of my family to have a little one. Now Mom also hasx a little girl in the family. Now her and Leah can buy pink for the first time in a while. I can’t wait to see the little runt the next time Leah and I travel to Ontario. That won’t be for a while, but we’re used to not seeing everyone. I plan to use the next cheque to get something for Emma, and will ship it in the mail early next month.

I’ve got to run, but I have the day off so I’ll be back later today to post again. Until then, take care.
