Austin John Riley

My sister, Nicole, had her little baby boy on January 18th. Seeing as they're only in Rexburg, I decided that I HAD to go visit last weekend. 

Saturday morning Nicole and Juston gave Austin his first bath.
Before...
During...
 At first he was totally cool with the whole "bath" thing...
until they dipped him in the water. 
After.

Jennilyn and Jayden were SOO good with Austin. They are definitely ready to be older siblings to their new baby sister that will be here in April! 

(Kristine's hoping earlier!)













When we came home from shopping Saturday afternoon, there was this beautiful basket of flowers on the kitchen table. Curtis sent it for my birthday and also for Nicole. Very, very thoughtful. This picture doesn't do it justice, because some of the flowers opened up in the next few days. It was such a sweet surprise. Thanks Curtis!

 When holding Austin, he would just snuggle on in. Nicole was changing him on Sunday afternoon and she handed him to me in just a diaper. It was the sweetest thing EVER. It actually makes me teary-eyed when I think about it. Babies are such amazing things. It is an incredible creation and such a spiritual experience to hold a little one.




It was a really great weekend. It was lovely to spend lots of time with family along with our new little addition. Next visit to this cute little guy: February 19th. Can't wait!
