To my Aunt Wendy

Dear Aunt Wendy,

I am really excited to hear that you're getting better. My Daddy really enjoyed talking to you on the phone this morning, and my Mommy and Daddy get huge smiles on their faces every time Damon or Mimi and Grandaddy update them on your progress.

I am super excited to meet you. My Mommy and Daddy say that you're going to be an awesome aunt. I just wanted to write you this letter to tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Nicholas Scott Andrews. I was born two days ago on July 30, 2010, at 3:22 p.m. Mommy and Daddy tell me that I'm really cute. I have cute little cheeks, perfect little lips, big bright eyes, and dirty blonde hair. It's the same color as Daddy has. Mommy tells me I'm really handsome like him.

Here are some pictures of me since I was born. Mommy has taken a bunch even though I'm not even 48 hours old yet. But I guess when you're as cute as I am, it's hard to resist taking pictures of me.

This picture was taken of me when I was just a few minutes old. I came out with my eyes wide open and ready to greet the world.

This is me getting weighed. I'm just a skinny little thing, weighing in at 6 lb. 9 oz., but I'm really tall - 21 inches long.

I cried of course when I first came out, but I guess that's just what babies do.

This is Daddy (your brother Scott) holding me. We were having some male bonding time. This was when I was a day old (on Saturday, July 31).

And here I am just wide awake, looking around the room.

Mommy loves this picture of me with my spiky dirty blonde hair. Aren't I so handsome?

Here I am on Day 3 of my life (not quite 48 hours old yet). I was laying next to Mommy, looking up at her with my big bright eyes.

And then I fell right back to sleep. I sleep a lot, but they tell me that's normal for a baby.

Here I am taking a nap near the window. I am a bit jaundiced today, so Mommy and Daddy are trying to get me a little sunlight to clear things up. I'm eating really well now and Mommy is keeping me nourished, so that should help too.

I love you so much Aunt Wendy! I can't wait to meet you in October, and I hope you keep getting better and better every day. When I'm awake again, Mommy and Daddy will take another video of me and will send it to you.

I LOVE YOU!
