I AM AN AUNTIE!!!!!

Well, its official, I am an AUNTIE!!!! My sister-in-law had a beautiful baby girl on June 20th at 505pm. Her name is Anais Adia Degnan. She weighed in at 7 lbs even and is the most beautiful thing I have seen, besides Zach of course. heehee I am so happy, I cant get the stupind grin off of my face. I went down to Long Island to visit with Lt Blowes and his family, who by the way, is doing remarkably well. It was great to see him. But anyway, I knew she was going to go into labor while I was way. And sure enough, my brother calls me Monday night to tell me that her water broke. MAN! I couldnt believe it. She was a trooper, she had a natural child birth, by choice, and she used all her breathing techniques that she learned, she was a good little student. I am so happy for them and us. This is exactly what my family needed, a beautiful new baby to help us forget all our troubles for a little while. I am going to spoil this kid rotten. hahahahaha
The rest of my stay here in RI is going to be baby filled and I couldnt be happier. Makes me want to have another one, well, for like five seconds and then I think how much I love to sleep. haha

This deployment is half way over, and I am so happy I could burst. I hope the second half moves a little faster than the first. I will have this little bundle to keep me occupied. Mark is doing well and wants everyone to know how much he appreciates all the wonderful care packages and the prayers that are being sent his way. It truly means alot to all of us.

Well, Its time to head out, I have a baby to snuggle.........
