Baby, baby, baby!!!

More absolutely adorable pictures of my nephew. I am so not biased, am I?!
Is he not all boy or what?!?! He's the perfect combo of my sister and her husband, I think. Maybe a little Aunt Mo thrown in for good measure!!! ;-)
Caden sleeping in the cradle. Apparently (family, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) our great grandfather built this for his children and it has since been used by two generations. Very cool and VERY heavy.

Life for me...well, things are good but I don't want to jinx anything so I'm going to keep my mouth shut for a couple more days. I'M NOT PREGNANT, however.

Later!

Monica, I think you are pretty close and I am sure I will be corrected if I am wrong. But the craddle was built (as you said) by our great grandpa for Grandma Eve Atchley. There are no nails or screws holding it together, just amazing wood work. It has traveled all over the country and held a great majority of us at one time. It was an honor to use it with Sophia and meant so much to us. So to Mandy and Chase injoy the craddle but as you are learning what is inside of that little craddle is the most amazing thing in the entire world.

Thanks for the new pictures, he is very very cute, and I know his cousin Sophie can't wait to meet him and play at the family gatherings

Love your cuz,
Derek

Hey Auntie, Congratulations!!! I'm so happy for all of you. He is absolutely beautiful, and I totally love the name. Happy to hear that you and Anders are doing well. If you are ever in Boston, you had better call me.

Take care!
