My sister had her baby boy yesterday!
This is him…
Gus. Augustus Milo. Gus Gus.
I love Gus.
He weighed in at 9 pounds, 10 ounces.
Fat Gus.
Plump Gus.
Healthy Gus.
This is Gus with his Daddy…
Melt-your-heart-Gus.
Sweet Gus.
Lovely Gus.
This is me with Gus…
Shhhh, Gus.
I love you, Gus.
Be sweet to your parents, Gus.
I have a little boy who is going to be so happy you’re here, Gus.
My sister is a rock star and did amazingly well. She’s feeling good and healthy and all those other sorts of things the amazing women of the world do.
All I could think of when we were all together in the hospital room after Gus had been born was what a pretty person my sister was.
Gorgeous Rachel.
Pretty Rachel.
Wonderful Rachel.
Yep. I think their little family is just about perfect.





















I think you’ve perfectly captured the joy one feels when a sister (especially a sister) brings a new life into the world. Congrats to Rachel! Enjoy that sweet baby!
Thank you, Sara!
Congrats Rachel and Adam! He’s beautiful.
He is so cute! How does big sister like him?
Thank you, Carrie! Matilda LOVES him! The pictures of her meeting him show a HUGE grin!
