Welcoming my newest Nephew, Andrew!

Meet Baby Andrew Ropte :)

Andrew was born this past Saturday, November 3 at 8:16am via emergency c-section. He was born 8 weeks ahead of schedule at 32 weeks gestation, and was a whopping 5lbs 12oz and 17 inches long. He was born after a very scary situation involving significant amounts of blood loss, a trip to the ER and an emergency c-section, my sister-in-law Sarah and sweet new nephew Andrew are doing great! We are so thankful that they are doing well and recovering. We hope to make it out to see them before too long, once harvest winds down and they are up for some company.

Welcome to the family, sweet Andrew! We love you already! We are so glad you have joined our crazy big family and can't wait to meet you!
