Welcome to the world little one

Yesterday we welcomed the newest member of our family, Joseph Zachary Nilson! He came quickly into the world at 5:41 PM weighing 8 pounds even and 20 in long. He is adorable and his sisters just love him to death.


The girls come to see their new little brother, bearing gifts.

Dad and his son (he really was grinning when they said "it's a boy!")


Fresh from the "hopper".

All is well with Mom and baby and we should be coming home from the hospital on Friday morning.

He is very cute :) Nice to see what your boy looks like! I'm glad you didn't name him George, haha...I like his name. I think he looks a lot like Emma, so Joseph seems only appropriate, haha. I hope you have many happy times with him. I bet Zach can't wait to play DandD with him! Congrats to you too...being un-prego is always nice! Enjoy! Love, Mel

Yay!! I'm so excited for you! Now comes our favorite part - ahh, the joys of nursing and sleep deprivation. So, I guess we can plan on Joseph and Rachel's wedding in about 22 years...

Celia,
He is so cute. We are glad he is here safe. You have beautiful children. Tell Emma I miss her. That homemade card she made was adorable! You did a great job on your nursery. Wish you the most sleep possible in the days to come! :)

He is PERFECT!! Having a boy is so much fun and since he is the "baby" right now he will be spoiled rotten. Glad things went well.
