Baby Danny!

About a year ago, my BFF Katie was trying for a 3rd baby. She informed me that they were only trying for 2 months, because if she got pregnant after that, she would have a newborn around the time of her sister's wedding ... in Mexico. And there was no way to do both! I told her that was crazy, and I assured her that if they were indeed to conceive right then, that I would personally watch her newborn while they were in Mexico. What were the chances anyway?

About a month later, she called and asked me if I was serious about my offer.

9 months later, here we are, with "Baby Danny" at our house:

I can't tell you how honored I am that Katie, and her husband Noel, entrusted me with their precious son for 4 whole days.

I can't tell you how adorable that little boy is, and how very excited my kids are to have him here in our house.

I can't tell you how exhausted I am, and how positive I am that our family is complete with three children.


Thanks for coming to visit us, "Baby Danny"! We love you, and hope you'll come again soon!

Happy Valentine's Day, my sweet baboos!*
