Pony Peterson has a new little Russell to love. Pony kept the older kids during the day while Brian was being born. They enjoyed playing will all her animals and helping her plant flowers. She even got them all to take naps at her house!

Congratulations again on your newest addition! Loved the Aggie picture. Too bad my Brian and I went to different universities... we already pretend-argue about whose school colors our baby will wear. LOL!
ReplyDeleteRonnie & I went to different schools too, but I have absolutely no school spirit :-) and I like the colors of his school anyway.
ReplyDeleteWhat a blessing Brian is! He is so beautiful. I am so excited for you and your family. I know that he will be a most loved edition. Rest assured of our prayers.
