Aunt Christina

Well, this weekend was exciting! Friday night Isaac, my sister, grandparents, and parents went out for my birthday. It was really fun to all get together, especially since I hadn't seen my sister in about a month. Saturday I got to spend some time with her and then Sunday was our suprise. That brings us to Aunt Christina! Wow, that sounds weird. Abby gave birth to a little girl last night at9:16pm. Alexis Maria weighs 6lbs. 91/2 ounces and is 19 inches long. Since she was born so late last night we didn't get to see her until today. We went down to the hospital after Isaac got home from work. She is so adorable. Apparently she was crying all last night, but she was a sleeping little angel the whole time we were there. I'd never held a baby before so I was pretty nervous, but really excited. It was so much fun just to watch Lexi sleep and make funny faces every now and then when she was stretching. I'll have to post some pictures when I get some. I'll definitely be a willing babysitter. Isaac and I figure this will be good practice for us before we start our own family. We get to spoil our niece while learning all about babies!
