Future Mrs. Sharp

As most of ya'll know, our best friends, James and Kristen Sharp, have anxiously been awaiting the arrival of their first baby. When Regan was 2 days old we found out that Baby Sharp was to be a boy, and immediately Eric and James began negotiations for a dowry. Well this morning at 10:21 a.m., James Hudson Sharp (named after the famous missionary, J. Hudson Taylor) made his debut. He's a beautiful baby (can boys be called beautiful?) and looks just like his mother. I keep saying he's the baby boy version of Angelina Jolie because I am so jealous of how beautiful his lips are!

Here's Mama K (dubbed so by the youth group) cooing at her baby boy. I've never seen Kristen look as beautiful or as content as she did today.
And Papa Sharp mastering the burrito roll.

As I mentioned earlier, Regan and Hudson will be getting married in roughly 22 years. I really wanted to mark the occasion of their first meeting with a special t-shirt, so last night Regan and I got busy (me with the markers, her as the supervisor) and decorated a onesie for her to wear to the hospital. It says, in little kid writing, I [heart] Hudson, and I must admit, it was a smash. Hudson will appreciate the efforts one day.
