Baby New Year Maier! (well, almost!)

This Auntie and Uncle are PROUD to announce that Beck Lachlan Maier arrived at 1:46 AM on New Year's Eve weighing 7 lbs. 9 oz. and measuring 20.5 inches long!! He was an early New Year's Eve present to all of our family and we love him so much already! He's SO CUTE! Mommy Kristi and Daddy Mark are doing great and are at home with him now. Big sister Ava Grace is super excited and loves to show Baby Beck off to everyone. She loves to touch him and hold him and kiss on him...sweet! Our son, Jacob, who is off having some fun at the beach with his Nana and Papaw, will get to meet his new cousin next week. Beck's so sweet and cuddly that it's hard for us to stay away til then...especially Uncle Mickey, who is completely smitten!! Here are some photos taken of Baby Beck on his first full day. Congrats Kristi, Mark and Ava!! Welcome Baby Beck!
Mickey, in training for our upcoming arrival...

This is just about an hour after he was born...
All cleaned up and sleepy...

Proud Mimi and Poppy...

Ava Grace loves "Baby Beck"... and so does Granny Nanny...
