Baby Wade

Our little nephew wade-o potato (as his sisters are affectionately calling him) was born yesterday! He is a cute little mellow guy and already very adored. I took the girls down to see him after work and they were very excited. I saw just about the funniest/sweetest thing ever during the visit. Little Ruby was just beside herself when they wheeled him in to hang with the fam...she was on her tip toes trying to reach in to the crib thing to pat him and once she did, she took a step back, flailed her arms wildly, and- in the best high pitched, baby voice squeal that her 2 yr old self could come up with- she said, "Hi baby boy, it's me RUBY! It's me RUBY!" It was so hilarious... not to mention completely adorable. She totally thought they knew each other and that he should sit up and say something like, "Oh- hey sis." She was so thrilled to welcome the little dude in to her world and I loved every second of it. Both Ruby and Reagan are at such a cute age to have a new little sibling. Wade brought them presents from "mom's belly" which included cinderella coloring books, candy and play dough. They were thrilled and VERY inquisitive about how in the world baby Wade knew that they needed some play dough. Reagan gave Wade a little pat on the belly goodbye and thanked him profusely for bringing such great gifts. When we got in the elevator she said to me, "Our baby boy is so nice to bring us presents...he will ALWAYS love us." And, I'm guessing, the girls will love "always" love him for the great gifts he brought!
