Welcome, Baby Joey!

Joseph Anthony Mitchell - Born January 6, 2016

On January 6th at 9am, Lily and Johnny got a new cousin and Pia became a big sister.  We couldn't wait to meet the big guy so Mom, Lily and Uncle Brett took off after school (noonish) to meet him down in South Jersey.  He was precious and perfect in every way. Lily was thrilled she got to hold him.  She is a natural, for sure, and was even happier to see Pia and give her a big sister gift, a Minnie Mouse balloon.   It was a great way to spend an afternoon and evening! Welcome to the world, Baby Joey!

So happy to meet him! 

Priceless!

So small but so loved. 

Never letting him out of her sight.  :) 

Pia's here!
