We were all so excited to hear the news that Aunt MJ's water broke on Saturday night (the 23rd). After a looooonnng day of waiting, she was finally born on Sunday at 6:17 via C-section. I was visiting Geoff because I had some testing that weekend, so it was very convenient that I was so close to the hospital in Allentown where she was born. She had lots of loving visitors on that Monday, and she is definitely the cutest member of the family :)

The next weekend, late on Saturday night I drove up to their house in order to get some more baby loving and to see my loving mother. On Sunday, we threw a little birthday party for my mom (the big 5-2!). My grandpa, Aunt MJ's in-laws, and her best friend Kelly came. We made homemade lasagna with, get this, HOMEMADE NOODLES! Scrumptious. Simply scrumptious.

Never got a shot of the finished product, but man was it good! Props to both Geoffrey and I for finding the recipe a while back! Anyways, while we were cooking
and during the party for that matter we had a cute distraction.
