Here she is! My beautiful new niece Annika. Chris and I made the trip to Ottawa yesterday to meet her and fell head over heals in love. She's 4 days old and just the cutest little chickadee I've ever seen.

Chris and I are completely smitten with our new goddaughter. |

I can't believe my brother is a dad. And a great dad! They're wearing matching outfits! |

The happy family. Beautiful. |
Everyone is doing well. Luke and Amanda are settling right in to parenthood, they're naturals! Baby Annika sleeps like a champ and spends most of the day just dosing and making the most ridiculously adorable faces.
Oh, and she loves her booties. ;)
