Little 3 month old Reed

A week ago I flew back to Nebraska to visit my family and spend some time with my nephew Reed.  My last visit in October, he was only two weeks;  at three months, he’s now starting to look like a little man, rather than an old man.  It’s amazing to me how babies start their life resembling the way they’ll look at the end-bald, wrinkly, and maybe just a little crabby 🙂 I’m sure my sister’s shaking her head reading this.  It’s just, being an aunt is so marvelous.  Really!  I marvel at this little baby boy every time I have him in my arms, trying to take in the reality of his existence. It’s pretty out of this World.

Well, enough of my ramblings.  On to the pictures.  Without further adieu, three month old baby Reed:

Sweet Baby Reed

My sister is the proud mother of her first child, Reed Curtis Thompson, my darling nephew.  My trip back to Nebraska couldn’t come soon enough after the little guy was born.  I’m so glad I could hop on a flight and get some real quality time with Katie, Ty, and Reed before heading to South America (pictures to come in the next few days) a few short days later. Love you guys!
