Baby Luke -- I want to pinch his cheeks!


My sister had her first baby last night.  She has been waiting for this moment for so long, and the little guy made her wait 2 days past her due date, but when he arrived, he made it well worth her while.  Look at this face... who wouldn't fall in love with this guy immediately.  I am 500 miles away, and I am already in love.  I know what a hospital room is like.  People are coming and going, and she is trying to bond with this baby and recover, and for that reason, I have only called her one time.  I hope that she doesn't think I am not thinking of her, because it is taking everything I have not to abandon my own little munchkins to come hold this sweet baby.
I would do this, except, well, Ben is sick, and this is our first week-end of Fall Sports, where we have 3 games on Saturday.  I will get there soon though... I promise... wait for me Luke.  Aunt Kim is coming.  Don't you grow up until I get there.  Okay?
Holly and Mark just look so happy.  I know they are.  They have planned out this birth better than anyone I know.  Baby Luke, you are such a lucky guy.  These parents of yours will give you anything you want cutie! 

Ben and Alexander were pretending to have a conversation with Luke's pictures on the computer today.  They were saying, "Do you want to play, Luke?  Let's play!  How about playing trucks?"  It was priceless.  We all can't wait to meet Luke.


We also love you Holly and Mark.  Get used to it.  From now on, Luke is the star.  Princess... I am afraid you now have a little prince to compete with.  We love you all!
