Welcome Leo Dewey Dries!!

Amy had the audacity to birth her fifth child while I was out of town, unconnected, at girls camp with my stake. She said she hoped that the unknown-gendered child would come on Mikey's birthday, and if not then, then on Father's day. He (yep! a BOY!) came the night of Mikey's birthday. Amy is a labor machine - super fast, no drugs, and her make up always looks great. 
I got back from girls camp on Saturday afternoon and on Sunday morning at 5:30 I was in my parent's truck with Bekah in tow.
We were so happy to just spend a few hours hugging and kissing the adorable Leo Dewey (Mikey picked his middle name, after "Malcom in the Middle").


This is my favorite picture of Leo! My mom was showing Sarah (aka "Momma Bear") how to swaddle Leo tightly and I'm not sure he liked it.
I had to get a picture like this because I have similar ones with Joshua, Luke, Sarah and Mikey. Gotta keep tradition!
We made some lunch and cookies and even a cake, I think, and then by 4pm we were back on the road, headed back to ABQ. It was super fast, but completely worth it!
