I am back from a whirlwind trip to see the newest member of our family, my nephew, Nethaneil. He is beautiful and snuggable and of coures, lovable! My father, Karin, Elyssa and I hopped into my parents' brand new Subaru after work on Monday and made the long trek to Fergus (no more Arthur, the Broersma's have moved to the big city!:)). We hit some construction on the highway so our drive was more eventful than we would have liked. But we made it none the less and it was all worth it once we got to snuggle with our newest family member. Only 3 days old, he did a lot of sleeping. Apparently, he's calmer during the day than at night, so far, so we didn't hear a lot of crying. After a good night's sleep, we all went for breakfast at the local family restaurant. Everyone there was amazed that Diana was out and about after giving birth only on Saturday! She's a trooper.

I remember a year and a half ago when we went out for breakfast at the same restaurant just after Hadassah was born. She was already a couple of weeks old then.

After breakfast, we just hung out at Diana and Mike's new house all day. We didn't do much. Mostly just stared at Nethaneil and tried to keep cool! It was a scorcher of a day! Hadassah and Elyssa got along well.

Nethaneil slept.

Woke up.

And slept some more.

Around 3:30pm we decided to hit the road for the long trip home again. It was also a long trip due to construction and Elyssa needing to be fed but it was good and we made it home safely.
