Introducing the Newest Evensen


Here she is!  Violet Elizabeth Evensen arrived on Friday, May 26th.  She is posing with her mom and dad in this photo.

The newest member of our family weighed in at 8 pounds 3 ounces and is 20 inches long!  She looked very much like her dad, my nephew Nils.


I love the name Violet.  She arrived with a full head of blond hair.  What a sweetie!

She also has the chubby cheeks that run in our family, as you can see below.  Violet is the 5th grandchild and the 3rd little girl of her generation in our family.


There's something wonderful about seeing a man tenderly holding a baby, isn't there?


Welcome to mortality, little Violet.  I can't wait to meet you!
