Friday Things: And Baby Makes FOUR!

Congratulations to anyone who guessed that our newest little bundle would be joining our family on his actual due date!

Say hello to Dominic Aldo! He came into the world on Tuesday, October 4th at 6:44am.
He weighed 7 pound 14 ounces and was 20 inches long!

We are so happy to be home and getting all settled in as a family of four. Joseph has already been the sweetest big brother… as soon as he saw him, he just kept saying, “brother!” and giving him kisses.
Makes my heart melt!

I’ll be settling in and recovering, but do have recipes made to keep you busy for quite awhile. Just know that I will be responding to email and comments more slowly than usual. Thanks so much for your understanding!
Now I’m off to have some newborn snuggles and enjoy hugs from my big boy ❤️

I’m so happy to hear you were able to bring home a healthy baby boy. I hope you take the time to enjoy him with your husband and don’t worry about posting until you want to!
So sweet. Congratulations. Love the lots of hair!
Congratulations and wishing you and your family well. Your precious bundle shares my baby’s birthday, he just turned 7 on Tuesday. I have already missed your daily posts but look forward to seeing them again once you are ready. All the best.
My mom would take one look at your boys and call them “the beautiful people.” She loses her mind over dark haired babies, boys being extra precious. When you fill us in next time, please, please, please include pictures of Dominic, Joseph and Duke… kids and dogs trump even baked deliciousness.
Congratulations! He doesn’t know it yet, but Dominic is a very lucky baby.
Congratulations and wishes for a long and happy life for all! Enjoy every moment. Being young parents with all those years of teaching and watching them learn, is like no other time. God is with you, and I loved Jenny’s words of Einstein as “Guardian Angel-Pup”.

Congratulations, Michelle and your family or 4. What a beautiful boy and love his name. Pictures of Joseph and his new brother are so sweet and precious. Joseph will be helpful and a good big brother. Thank you for sharing the wonderful pictures. You look good for just giving birth. Enjoy all the snuggles and kisses. Try to get some rest.
