introducing…baby joe

So happy I got to take some pictures of my newest nephew, Joseph Rothwell . He was born on May 18th and weighed in at 8lbs and 6oz. So now with the addition of baby Joe, each of the adult Beyrer siblings (John, Joseph and Inez and their spouses) have 3 boys each. So all 9 cousins/grandchildren are all boys. And unless a baby girl suddenly drops out of the sky and lands on one of our doorsteps, the 9 boys will be 9 boys.

Baby Joe is adorable (even though he peed all over me) and looks just like his brothers did as babies. And like his daddy.

Very proud big brothers! We figured taking the binky away from Quinn was really not worth the fight. It was either have him sitting on the couch with the binky and being in the picture, or no binky and NO picture. You gotta pick your battles.My favorite!This baby has huge hands and feet- he’s going to be a big boy (well, he already is but you know what I mean).I think James is pretty enamored. All I could think when seeing this picture is Joe saying “Hey lady, come thismuch closer so I can punch you…” Sorry dude, you got years and years of Aunt Beth photos in your future. You can suffer and commiserate with your other 8 boy cousins who also don’t like getting their picture taken. Squish!!
