sportin' a double chin :)

john's brother danny and wife rachel welcomed their second little girl (and my 5th niece) into the world monday, october 13 around 5pm. she was supposedly 4 weeks early, but weighed 8lbs 10oz!!! i'm thinking the due date was off or that would have been one b-i-g baby in another month :) unfortunately, i had just driven back to charleston from georgia sunday night despite almost staying an extra night. boy do i wish i had. and caroline has not sopped reminding me that she told me we needed to stay! i was completely bummed to miss seeing her on her actual birthday so we got back in the car wed afternoon and came to see her. it was worth it!! she is precious and everyone is doing great!
