Welcome Cousin Alyssa!

Andrew (Daniel's brother) and Julia's sweet Alyssa Faith was born today! We are thankful that she is healthy (8lbs 4oz) and Julia is doing better (some blood pressure issues prompted Alyssa's two week early arrival).
I love the look on Grandma's face. :) It is good to live vicariously through our siblings and their children getting to have grandparents close. And for the grandparents, I love that they get to experience the joys of a grand baby nearby that they miss with our kids. I also know that they work very hard to make sure they have that close relationship with us and our kiddos across the miles.
Ya gotta zoom in on that hair...it's great!
