big

Something big happened in the Parnell house last night.
Ironically, that something big is something very, very small.

David told the kids yesterday morning that he was bringing someone home to watch the game with us. A "special" visitor.

When he finally got home, and Elise caught a glimpse of the visitor....she ran like the wind...



with a HUGE smile on her face.....



...to meet the newest, smallest, member of the Parnell family....




Can you see him next to David?




Three ecstatic little kids...(who have no idea about the conversations, stress, and emotions involved in this decision, and therefore we will leave that for another post)....

who are all VERY.....

VERY VERY VERY.....

VERY happy to meet "Boss".

`

Full name Boss Brees Parnell.

`

Who we welcomed to the family last night, and who helped us cheer the Saints onto their first victory of the season!

`

And for who we are so grateful to for giving Elise the biggest smile I have seen on her face in a long time....

.....and also because he doesn't seem to mind one bit that she holds him constantly. :)

`

Welcome to the adventure, Boss!
