The Arrival of JCN

Here is he.....we've been waiting a long time for Raye and Dan's baby to arrive. Finally on April 12th, at 5:14PM he arrived safely. It was a LONG week waiting to see and hold the new baby in the family. C. was asking everyday this past week if Saturday was here yet. As from the looks of their smiles, we couldn't get enough holding time. He was in someone's arms for most of the day.



A. was hoping for a boy cousin.


He likes his thumb.


Uncle Phil has another nephew to play football with.


Holding Little J. was just precious. He just seems so tiny and little. Hard to believe that only 10 months ago, Baby R. was this small. How quickly they grow. Phil and I are fortunate to be his godparents. We can't wait to see him next month at his baptism.

It was a beautiful day in Omaha. The kids played at the nearby school ground, played football with Dan and Phil, and even played a few rounds of croquet. I even beat A. 2 out of 3 rounds of it.

When we arrived, R. was napping. When she woke, I don't think she knew what to think, new place, a new faces to remember. She was slow at moving around. Several times she was seen in this position. It was kind of funny. It looks like she is posing for her senior pictures.
