I have a niece....

Today 'Haley' was born. Mahala Elizabeth Long came into this world, 8 lbs. 9.5 oz., 20.5 in. long. She has a full head of dark hair and is sooooo cute. Lisa is doing very well also. Mark looked more tired and worn out than she did! lol During the time we visited at the hospital Haley didn't even cry, she grunted from time to time but that was all. Lisa said that she was nursing really well too. She looks very similar to Mark's baby picture, poor little girl. lol She is adorable and sweet. WE FINALLY HAVE A GIRL IN THE FAMILY!!!!!!! All of my boys were swooning over her. When we went to leave Asher asked if we could take her home with us!! He asked very politely!! I told Saige when Haley turns his age he will be graduated from highschool and starting college. Talk about an eye opener, even Mark was shocked at that reality. When Asher is 18 I'll be 44, when Haley is 18 Mark will be 53. Lisa tried to comfort Mark and told him that Haley will be quiet and calm like she was when she grew up and not take after Mark and the boys, so he should age well!! lol Christmas shopping will be fun this year, I get to buy girl clothes, dolls, care bears, my little ponies, barbies, make up, princess stuff, purses, .... well maybe just the clothes this year but for the next decade I finally get to buy something other than blue, action figures, and cars. Mark & Lisa said that the kids did well with her. Mason was interested for a few minutes then he wanted to leave but Rilee was so upset to leave his little sister that he cried. How sweet!!! Two big brothers and three big boy cousins.... need I say more. She will be the most protected little girl especially knowing that Mark is soooo old and might need some back up. He might throw out a hip, he'll need the young ones to help out. lol Check out the pics at Wigge pics or click above on Haley!!!

Hey now! I think we can do without all the age comments! Remember that you are only 4 years younger than I and if your older brother is "old" then you're not far away from it! lol But you're right, I might need some back up around 'dating age'...God, I really don't even want to think about that yet. Thanks for everything Sara!
