Meet Ike

My second week of vacation, I took the kids and headed across the state of Michigan to Detroit to meet my new nephew Ike. He is the cutest, happiest, most well adjusted baby ever. When we arrived he had only been with my sister and brother in law a week and I was amazed at how it felt he had always been a part of our family.....
Ike and his new mommy...
Ike and his favorite Aunt Jill..Ike and Lottie...

All the cousins, this was the best I could do.
2 happy moms...
With all the chaos we still managed to spend some time on the lake...

Dan flew up just in time to enjoy another beautiful sunset...
Cheers to a happy, beautiful family!!

    Ike is SO CUTE and I love the pictures of him and Scarlett together. I love her nickname Lottie!

    You and your sister look so much alike! Both knock-outs. :-)

    Hopefully it's not as hot for you this week.

    I love the name! And I waaaaant him. (I would never take him though; I know what a labor of love it must have been to get him.) He is adorable. It looks like you guys all had a blast!
