A NEW cousin!!!

We are so excited to welcome a NEW cousin & I get the joy of being an Aunt for the 14th time!! How amazing is that!! 

Welcome to the world sweet Remmington Jayne Jonker! We love and adore you! 

We were waiting for weeks for her to arrive! Kelly was on full bed rest since 30 weeks (including a week in the hospital), but much to everyones surprise when she was allowed to get up Remmi seemed content to stay put! 

The kids and I were so bummed because we were headed to Florida and thought we would miss her arrival! But, at 5am that morning my brother called with the amazing news that she had arrived! I hoped in the shower, ran around like a crazy woman finishing our packing, woke the kids up early, showered & fed them and we hurried down to the hospital before heading to the airport! There is truly nothing sweeter than holding a newborn baby! We instantly all feel in love with this beautiful, sweet girl and we can't wait to be a part of her life! John, Kel & Remmi we love you!! (and we love her name :)). 



Shaelyn in a natural! She LOVES babies! Makes us both dream of #5 :)


 So much fun to see my little brother become a dad! He is going to be an awesome one!
 He has a lot of helpers too!!
 Sweet Monreau seemed so grown up!


 Beautiful mom!
 I didn't really want to let her go :)

 Then it was off the airport :)... Where my amazing little travelers did awesome! Flying with the 4 by myself gets easier every time! It helps that they all LOVE to travel! (I will admit you get some not very kind looks when you get on the plane!)
