Dean Quentin Evans was born on Wednesday, August 25th and I am madly in love with him. He weighed 7lbs and 11oz and was 20 inches long. He is the most precious thing I have ever seen. My only problem is getting to hold him as much as I want, because I don't want to stop holding him! He is a wonderful gift from God, we are so blessed!
