The waiting lasted over 30 hours. But the phone call finally came… “You have aaaaaaaaaa NEPHEW! Weighing in at 9 lbs 6 oz. His name is Duke J.”
But then the waiting game happened again. Hospital regulations dictate only 1 visitor per day so the grandmas got first dibs on visits. My patience was tested but pictures did the trick in the meantime.
Today, Duke is one week old. I’ve seen him everyday since he’s been home. I can attest Duke is a perfectly chill, photogenic, happy baby. I cannot get enough of his little noises, cool outfits, and all the snuggling we’ve done.
Duke, you are simply the best nephew! Love you!


Well worth the wait. Sweet baby. So happy for your family! ❤️❤️❤️
