Mobile at 3 weeks?!?

Emmet learned a new trick with Daddy this week - and he is already a man on the go!

CCB meets CEG

We were all excited to see how Carlyle was going to react to her new baby cousin, in anticipation for her baby brother coming this fall. All in all, she was more interested in the toys that Dach set out for her than "Bady Entend." She did very sweetly take him his bottle and some toys, though. I am sure she will make a great cousin and big sister!

Not too excited to take pictures with the baby :)

Aunt Lala

Sweet Boy <3

She loves to try on Dach's hat!

Which reminded me of a picture from our Breckenridge trip last summer

Chad's First Father's Day

We got to celebrate Chad's first Father's Day today, after a whole 15 days of fathering! I have to say, I have been blown away by how lovingly he cares for our little boy. He has been patient, so supportive of me and incredibly involved in all aspects of taking care of this baby! I love you, Chad!

The Nursery

Long overdue, but here is a shot of Emmet's Man-Cave.

Pictures

Welcome to the World, Emmet!!

Conrad Clement "Emmet" Barnes, IV arrived last Saturday, June 4th at 4:38 pm. He weighed 6 lbs. 10 oz., measured 20.5 inches long and was born after only 5 1/2 (very intense) hours. He is an absolutely beautiful and healthy boy, and Mom and Dad are smitten!! More details and many more pictures to come, but if I talk about how much we love him too much right now I will dissolve into tears :)
