I finally got to hold Tate last night! Wahoo! He's over a month old now, and he's almost reached his due date of Feb. 19th. I hadn't held him before, because I was coughing so much and just didn't dare. So last night was our first aunt/nephew maiden voyage snuggle. He was so sweet! And Bethany was just fascinated--he looks like a doll who moves. She kept saying, "Hands! Nose! Eyes!" and was amazed by how tiny he was. She loved kissing him on the head, too, and I would have gotten a picture of it if my camera battery hadn't died. Tate is doing so well and is just as sweet as can be. I love his little squeaky noises and his sweet baby smell! It was a long wait to hold him, but worth it!

I am so glad your nephew is doing so well and that you were finally able to have your moment with him. So sorry about your nursery troubles. Does Bethany know the leaders very well? I know it helped Ellie once she got to feel comfortable with them. Of course it doesn't help if they don't consistently come so hopefully you aren't dealing with that also. I loved your Valentine's poem. You are such a cute wife and make such a great couple!
Congrats, Auntie. How fun!
