My awesome nephew!

Ok, I realize I haven't blogged in awhile, and I have a billion things to tell you about last week, Sydney, and now being in Melbourne. But they will have to wait, because there is more pressing news. I want to shout it from the roof tops and I can't tell you how hard it is being so far away from the fam with a weird time difference. But I am a new aunt!! My brother's wife had the baby - the huge baby - and his name is Hazen Alexander Bedke after my Grandpa. Makes me want to cry. Check out their pictures!

He was 9 lbs. 10 oz and 21 inches - chunker :-) - born on July 9th. I already love him, and I'm just such a proud aunt. I can't wait to get on webcam next week. Seeing my brother holding his son - wow, so priceless. Especially considering he said he'd never have kids :-). Love you Matt!

G'day from Melbourne...
P.S. Let me just tell you this news, and staying with a very pregnant couple in Melbourne makes me yearn for home and family.
