We've been anticipating this beautiful baby's arrival for weeks as my niece had surpassed her due date.  Nikki and her husband wanted to keep the baby's name a surprise but we knew she was having a boy.  So, while we eagerly waited for his arrival, I dubbed him "baby what's his name". 

Nikki went in to the hospital this morning for a scheduled induction.  Three hours later, (yes, 3 hours – this is baby #3), my "baby what's his name" had arrived!

Meet my newest little love; Luke Norman.  He arrived at 11:38 a.m., weighing 7 lbs., 12 ozs. and measuring 20 1/2" long.  He joins his brothers Jack (4) and Henry (2), my other little loves.

His middle name was chosen after my Dad, "Norman", who lost his battle to cancer a year and a half ago. To say my Dad is greatly missed would be an understatement.  When Nikki told me that she chose Norman as Luke's middle name I was thrilled. My Dad's legacy lives on in this little guy.  I know my Dad is smiling down from Heaven today!

Boo and I went to the hospital and got to hold and kiss this beautiful baby.  This is a big day for Boo, too. She's been asked to be Luke's Godmother. She's thrilled to be the Jesus mentor in his life!

Our family is growing and my heart swells with happiness.  I'm grateful that both Nikki and Luke are healthy and happy.

I now have THREE little loves in my life. I'm so blessed!
