After months of waiting, we finally welcomed baby Derric into the world. He was playing the stubborn game, making Mommy wait past her due date, but it was all worth it. She went into labor around 1:30 Saturday afternoon, and gave birth at 8:35 that evening. And as you can see, he's a healthy, bouncing, baby boy!! He was welcomed by his proud mommy and daddy, and big sisters Amber and Kristina. 
It was a waiting game Saturday afternoon. The girls and I hung tight in the waiting room while Mommy and Daddy coaxed baby Derric out. We passed time coloring, making bracelets, playing with the bead puzzle, and hanging out with Ninu, Kayla, and Skyla. All in all, the time passed pretty quickly. 
Of course, Josh and I took the girls down to meet their baby brother face to face Sunday afternoon. And I couldn't keep my hands off this handsome little man. He's definitely got the Evangelista traits going on!! What a good looking baby!! 
After a funfilled weekend of welcoming the newest Haskell to the family, you can see the these girls are one tired bunch!!! But it was all worth it!!! Mommy, Daddy, and baby brother should be home tomorrow! We love you, Baby Derric!!!! You're absolutely adorable!!!

I was anonymous, by the way. For some reason, it didn't post my name. Anyway, we have decided to go with the lion costume I think. He seemed to really enjoy it the best!
