Baby Makes 8

My parents are now the proud grandparents of eight! My sister Hannah and her husband Kenneth just welcomed their third child, a sweet baby girl, into the world around 8:00 on Wednesday morning. She weighed in at 6 lb. 11 oz.

Zeke, Karis and I dropped off Mr. Moo to take a nap at Grandma Wright's house, then drove to Kettering to see our new little niece / cousin. The only bummer was that no kids are allowed in the maternity area unless they are the patients' children, so, with tears of disappointment, Zekers and Kari Bou waited out in the lobby with Uncle Kenneth. Their tears quickly evaporated, though, when they realized he had brought them crackers!












Aunt Hannah was nice enough to bring their little baby cousin right up to the main door of the maternity ward so the kiddos could at least get a look at her in person.










So, even though there was some talk of changing her name, I'll go ahead and say . . . Welcome, Elizabeth (Ellie) Joy!
