I have fallen in love for the fifth time in my life.


     My oldest brother Tim and his wife Jeannie tried for a very long time to have a baby to no avail.  They had given themselves over to being a fantastic aunt and uncle, which they have honestly mastered quite well.  Last year, on my birthday, they told me they were pregnant.  At first, I didn’t believe them.  I thought they were playing a joke on me.  Sure enough they were and I was thrilled at the fact that we would have another kiddo in the family. 

The time has finally arrived … Padraic Foley Keenan was born on February 4th, 2010. 
  
     I jumped on a train last week to come and meet the little fella and help my bro & sis get acquainted with their new life.  We've had a photo shoot pretty much every day and Padraic & his Aunt Eileen have bonded quite well.  Here is a taste of some of our shots we have gotten, with much more to come…

Welcome to the world little buddy.


Love, Aunt Eileen
