Another niece! Sort of...

.

Any of you who know my college roommate Erica knows that she is as close as a sister to me. And her husband Mark is like the brother I never had. They were blessed with their first child this past Friday -- an absolutely beautiful little girl named Alex!

Here are the exciting stats:

• Alexandra Eve Simmons
• Friday, March 27
• 11:37am
• 5 lbs, 1 oz
• 18"

I talked to Erica today, and all are doing well. We can't wait until we have the opportunity to take a trip to Allentown and meet this new sweet girl in person!

Welcome to the "family", Alex!!!
