First Day of School (with a twist)!

Today B and L started 3rd grade. They were so excited and full of energy and it made for a happy morning around here.

But the excitement didn’t end there. . . look what else happened on the very same day:

My new nephew, Rylan Matthew arrived! He weighed in at 6 pounds 6 oz. The best part was the total surprise we got when he showed up 3 weeks early. Hooray for babies that don’t make us wait for them!

Rylan belongs to my little sister and this guy:

I love my brother-in-law and he’s a great dad. But I love his kids more.

Here I am getting my first glimpse at my new little buddy:

I really should have a picture of my sister to show you, but I arrived at the hospital only about an hour after she gave birth. She would not be so happy with me if I posted a picture of her on here. I’ll at least let her get a shower first.

So this first day of school will go down in history as one of the more chaotic first days, but the good kind of chaos. I’m a proud mom, aunt, and sister.
