born thursday, july 12 at 8:30 pm

(just in time for marci to get on the plane and miss the whole thing)

6 pounds 15 ounces, 19 inches

i spent the majority of the day crying because:

a. i was so excited to have another niece; being an aunt is just about the best thing ever

b. i wasn't there for her birth, and i won't be able to meet her until august

c. i felt super guilty that marci missed her birth to come visit me

at the end of the night we got to skype with my fam

and see the new babe for a little bit.

look at that hair!

she sure is a cutie and i can't wait to quickly claim my spot as her favorite aunt.

oh, and watching kayden and koby love on her...just about the sweetest thing ever.

she's a lucky girl to have such good big brothers.
congrats to the proud parents, lindsay and craig.
welcome to the world little one!
