Blayne Steven

Meet Blayne Steven.

My newest nephew arrived late Thursday night and I was waiting in the hospital lobby when he popped out.

“Popped out” literally describes what he did - the medical professionals hypothesized he dropped so fast he smacked his face on my sister’s hips. His face was one big bruise and at some point his clavicle broke.

It’s hard not to compare brothers but the differences are so obvious. Where Dylan a blond haired, blue eyed pretty boy, Blayne is shaping up to be tall, dark and handsome. He weighed more than a pound more than Dylan and is two inches taller. And Blayne’s ears are way smaller.

“Can they make a blanket that feels just like this?” my youngest sister asked while nuzzling Blayne’s downy head. The satiny smoothness of a baby’s head is one of the best textures in the world.

(PS - I keep calling him Blake. Oops.)
