Christmas with the Kleins....

On the 26th, we went to Rockwall to have Christmas with Bryan's mom, brother Chris and his family. Chris and his wife Liz had their first baby on the 19th. She was 7 lbs. 13 ozs. and 20 inches long.

Introducing...Loralye Elizabeth Klein....

I made it just in time for Christmas - a girl can't pass up gifts.

Ok Aunt Phyllis, do you want to know what they are doing to me? Can't a girl just sleep?

That's more like it.

Meanwhile....Christmas went on....

Yes, you are seeing correctly, that is the wing of an airplane. Chris remembered that Bryan has always wanted one - to make into a coffee table - so he was kind enough to oblige his brother. I was kind enough to remind Chris that paybacks are a bitch.

Here is Tayler's new toy from Uncle Chris and Aunt Liz

And Kaylin's.... (Kati got an RC Boat...somehow we didn't get a picture of it that day)


Loralye was overjoyed by all the gift giving....

What a proud uncle Bryan!! He even dressed to match Loralye.

And then we can paint our nails, and I'll show you how to brush your hair...

What do you mean I'm not the baby anymore??

Nana and Opa's 4 girls...those Klein boys sure are in trouble!!

Here is Loralye's proud mom Liz (I'm so jealous that she can look this radiant and beautiful 1 week after giving birth...it's just not fair).
