Happy Father's Day!

Instead of sleeping the afternoon away (as Erik had hoped he'd be able to do on his Father's Day), we got to drive to Columbus to meet our new niece! Adeline Makenna Lloyd decided to give her daddy the best Father's Day gift ever and was born this morning just before 9:30. She is a beautiful little girl, weighing in at 6 pounds 7 ounces and just 19 inches long. Although Kimberly and Blake are a little tired, they are doing great.

The new family -

Uncle Erik, Aunt Erin and Aunt Meg taking turns holding Adeline -

Malachi with his new cousin (he doesn't understand yet that now he'll have to share the spotlight!) -

Here's what Malachi had to say about her name. He and Erik have been reading The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe lately, which explains his choice for what to call her.

Congratulations, Blake and Kimberly! We're so excited for you and can't wait to visit Adeline again soon!
