The best visits are with the ones you love...

his weekend I was able to head home and smooch on the newest member of our family. My brother and sister-in-law came up from Wilmington and brought the prince himself, Finn. It was so great to all be hanging out as a family. 

We even brought my grandmother over so that she could see her great-grandchild for the first time. To have 4 generations in a room was awesome. She was absolutely smitten and he fell asleep right in her arms.

I did my best to try to become the favorite aunt. Not really sure how much it worked :-) I tried my hardest though. I got him smiling, so I must have done something right.

Scott and Megan are such great parents. It is so weird and yet very cool and neat to see my brother doing such an amazing job as a dad. They both make me so proud to be their sister.

It's official. I have the quietest, most content and  best nephew in the world! 

there's nothing cuter than you kid...

After 22 hours of labor, he is finally here! and i am completely smitten. i am finally a first time aunt and could not be more proud of my brother and sister-in-law. such perfect parents to a perfect baby boy.

i was completely torn and heartbroken that i could not be there the day of the birth due to having to present my final project in order to graduate (which i thankfully passed) and was so bummed to not be a part of one of the most important days in my brother's life. but after a long week of school work, a long drive from boone to wilmington, i was able to finally go see my nephew.

he is more perfect then i could ever imagine. he never cries. he whimpers for food and then just chills out like all is well with the world. he sleeps, smiles and makes the best faces. i could not have been more excited to change a diaper or hold this baby (even after his full diaper leaked all over me - could have cared less!)

here's to you bro and megs - so proud of you! and here's to you finn - you were well worth the wait!
