Meeting the family

Mark holding his son. I know Mark would have been happy with a boy or a girl, but I think that he was very happy to have a son. A boy and a girl, what more can a Dad ask for!?!

Here's Grandma Berthold holding Joey for the first time. It doesn't take long before you fall in love with him.

Grandpa Berthold holding hi first grandson. I'm sure he was already thinking about what sports Joey will play and how much fun it will be to watch him grow up.

Grandma and Papa Schutte meeting their 8th grandchild! Even though Joey is their 8th, Joey is also a first for them. He is the first grandchild that will pass along with Schutte name!

You think I would forget about Baron meeting his brother for the first time!?! Baron licked him and then walked away. Baron isn't nearly as antsy as he was when we brought Megan home.

One proud Grandma-great meeting the next most important Joseph in her life. I think she likes him!

Caila couldn't get enough of Joey. We had to get a timer going to all of the kids could have a turn holding him.

I think I said it on the car ride out to the lake that Kelsey was going to be the one that wouldn't leave Joey's side...I was right! Even when it wasn't her turn to hold him, she still sat next to him just looking at him. She had so many questions about babies it was very cute. I can see Kelsey being Joey's buddy for a long time.

Well I think the cousins like him. Joey was sound asleep and he had all of his cousins just watching him.

Grandma and Papa Schutte with all of their grandkids. Conary turned 14 the day before Joey was born so their is a pretty good range of ages in this bunch. But we all know that their is something special about cousins, so it will be really fun to watch them all grow and play over the years.
