Welcome Carleton Scott Howell! Born May 22, 2012 at 11:14pm weighing 5 lbs. 12 oz. He is just a tiny little peanut. Here is his birth story as told by me, his auntie.

We very impatiently awaited the news of whether baby Howell was a boy or a girl.

So, Dave came to announce……it’s a……!

Brenna (big sister) was hoping for girl to play with. And as daddy Dave put it “She will still be the only princess in the house”. Brenna was not so happy about that.  It’s a BOY!

Grandpa Carl, Uncle Dan and Daddy. love this.

Big yawn.

Very alert.

Love this.

Awwwwwww……

Welcome to the world Carleton. Auntie Robin loves you, cousin Vivian cannot wait to snuggle you and you may just give Uncle J baby fever.

Grace or Leah as many of you know her is one of my best friends and happens to be my big sister. As if you couldn’t tell, we are related. I cannot even express how happy I am for her and Dave. I cannot wait to meet my new niece or nephew. That new baby smell…yum! Oh, and I will get my baby fix. Love you to the moon and back! Keep that baby in there until Sunday when I come back to civilization please.

Vivian enjoyed rubbing Auntie Grace’s belly.
