baby day.

(From yesterday)

My day started off pretty normal.  Woke up around 4:40am for work.  Ok, maybe not so normal.  But I had to open at Brueggers so I had to be there at 5:30am.  Yes, it's pretty rough.

Anyway, I got to work and the day started off pretty well.  I put caffeine in and got energy out.  And at different times of the day it was crazy busy at Brueggers which was great.  So later on during the day I received a text that would change my life.

"Ella jane was born at 1105."

Yes.  Yes, I'm an uncle!  Praise the Lord!  Overall, the whole birthday process went well and both mom and baby (Laura and Ella Jane) were good, except some bleeding Laura experienced.  But now they are both better.  This is so crazy to think about.  I can't believe I'm an uncle.  I can't believe my brother and sister-in-law have their own child!  (Ya, I know it sounds like some kind of merchandise.  But ya know she's not.)  It's just amazing.  God has blessed them with this little one.

Wow, is really all that can be said.  So after my shift ended at 1pm at Brueggers I got home, I chilled some and cleaned up, we packed up our rental car, and hit the road for VA.

We are just so excited and cannot wait to hold that little one in our hands.  As cliche as it is, she's our little angel and she's a blessing from God.  Plain and simple.  I just still cannot believe it.
