Exciting Announcement, Giveaways & a Random Picture

Yesterday my sister-in-law gave birth to my new little niece, Avelyn Marie!! She is 7.5lbs and 19.5″. I hear she’s got a full head of long hair but I wouldn’t know for sure because I haven’t seen ANY pictures yet. I was hoping to fly out there this weekend to visit (and take pictures of course) but it looks like I won’t be going until the end of February now. Darn. I can’t wait to meet her!

In other news, I’m so excited about all my new fans on Facebook (almost 100!) and the birth of my new niece that I decided to have a little giveaway over there. Come join the fan club and maybe win something too!

Finally, here’s a random picture of my very messy dining room table…
