Welcome Evelyn Rose Sytsma

Evelyn Rose was born one month ago. It was all so convenient, her arriving on a sunday afternoon and all. She has been a lovely baby and her brothers absolutely adore her!! She will be a light in their lives for quite a while at least:) If she is awake, they burst forth in joy and delight in her! It is truly amazing to see. We never thought Josiah would be so very keen on a little one, but he most definitely is. They make sure they wash their hands every time they want to touch her, talk to her in sweet little voices (sometimes a little loud) and totally invade her personal space and mine!

I forgot how much newborns sleep, so it's kind of like having a newborn visitor from time to time and an alarm clock that wakes us up three times a night:) She IS lovely though and Matt and I are definitely falling in love with her. She is starting to give cute little faces and hold her head up more and more. We are awaiting the arrival of her smile now:)

Here are some photos of her
