Newly minted big brother was excited to introduce his little sister, C, who was snuggling on the couch with mommy when I arrived. He was certain that she had all 10 toes and all 10 fingers, and just as sure when I asked him about how many noses she had (just one, for the record!). Little C had arrived between the snow storms of March and seemed to be settling in nicely, ready for spring to arrive. Her biggest, 4-pawed brother, Grizzly, seemed to welcome her as well and made sure he was never very far from her (check out the photo with Grizzly photo-bombing in front of the proud parents). Just a few weeks into being a family of 4+dog, the house already seemed to be humming with a new energy: more love, more warmth, and perhaps more coffee.
Rachel and Drew, I could not possibly be happier for all of you! Thank you, thank you for allowing me the privilege to document the start of a new chapter for you.
