Steve and I were excited to welcome our niece, Riley Jude, into the world this Monday.

Riley Jude, 7/28/08.

In a move that can only be described as FAIL, we did not bring a camera.  Ergo, here is a picture of a baby carrot.  Mama Jen looked lovely, and Papa Craig looked awestruck.  Riley is seriously cute.  Uncle Steve and Auntie V look forward to lavishing her with love, attention, and lies about how machines are controlled by gnomes who love you. Feel free to comment with ideas for other lies we can tell her.
