Here is the proud mama showing off her blessing to the proud cousin. Doesn't Dolly look great?!
The proud parents! Now, that is one proud Daddy!
Here is the proud auntie doing baby talk with her sweet nephew. We bonded instantly and this guy came to life when I started talking to him. Maybe it's the similarities in his mom's and my voice, or maybe it's the fact that I'm a baby whisperer? I know my sisters are laughing. I just have a knack with kids. I can't help it. They love me!
I had to check out his features. He's so tiny! Check out those sweet little feet!
The Pro, aka "Uncle Roy"
I see Dolly written all over this kid. She thinks he looks like Leland, but the eyes and mouth scream Dolly.
Again, someone was realllllllllllly excited to see Michael. I took her to the potty in Dolly's room and she, very seriously, said, "Mommy, put a sister in your tummy". I asked her if she meant a baby and she said "No, a sister". Don't hold your breath, Carol.
And I'm so glad I was able to give the new parents a Biblical reminder that "children are indeed a blessing from the Lord". Exhibit A: the one on the left being fussy and pulling my hair while the one on the right is pulling me and begging me to go see the other babies in the nursery window. Like I said, don't hold your breath.Congratulations, Seckmans! We love you ALL and are so happy for you:)
And just for fun....
On the drive home, we passed this semi going through Lexington, NC. Roy and I laughed so hard:

So cute. So TINY. Thanks for the update at the Station! Congratulations to the Seckman family!!
Donna, what a great post with such incredible photographs of your precious nephew. I know Dolly doesn't know me, but please give me my warmest congratuations and let her know that I will be praying for her in the coming weeks as she adjusts to this blessing. God is so good! There is nothing like seeing precious newborns. Life is such a miracle.
I got all emotional and then reading the end made me chuckle...what in the world is up with that Semi?
So happy for them!...what a lucky little guy to have so many aunties and uncles and cousins to love him already!
Donna, you are adorable!
Congratulations!!
Donna thank you so much for posting more pictures.
Baby Michael is so cute! I cannot wait to see him at Christmas! Dolly looks BEAUTIFUL! And Leland looks so happy! What a sweet new family!
I was laughing at Caroline's comment. SO funny. At least she knows what she wants--a sister.
i've been checking and checking and finally the station gives us the baby post! (and the cheers are heard 'round the world!)
GREAT pics, donna! GREAT post! You are such a good mom and auntie! Michael is beautiful and tiny!! I can't wait to see him and see D/L in action!
um, did you miss my presence too? (picture me sitting here looking sheepish and sad) (i need, i need, i need...gimme, gimme, gimme...)
Thanks for the great update. Dolly looks wonderful and Michael is SO darling. He really does look like he's listening to you, Donna! He's just gorgeous, and I'm so thankful to God that all went well and that he has arrived safely.
THANK YOU DONNA!!!! I have checked all the Reber girls' blogs multiple times a day over the last 24 hrs to see more about little Michael. HE IS JUST PRECIOUS!!! He looks like the sweetest little munchkin. I can just smell that sweet baby smell all the way in Texas. Keep the updates coming b/c I'm sure Dolly won't be blogging much over the next several weeks. I am so happy for Dolly and Leland.
Great update! You are right, Donna, his eyes are Dolly all the way!! Beautiful! and I loved the pic of you with Roy Austin pulling your hair and Caroline pulling your arm. lol Motherhood is great! You are good with kids and you are a great mom, Donna.
Welcome Baby Mike! (I will refrain next time) He is itty bitty! Congrats new parents. And dolly you are looking amazing. Even Corey was saying so. impressive for just pushing out a baby.
And what are we allowing now, human trafficking? Seriously what in the world would be in that truck?
Wonderful update! He is so precious!! Dolly looks great and as you said Leland looks like one proud Daddy. :O) Thanks for all of these pics!
So, when is Caroline getting a sister? ;o)
He is precious!! Dolly looks wonderful! Caroline is so proud of her cousin...how fun!!
And about that semi-truck.....seriously?!?!?
Thank you Donna for the pics and post! Michael is so sweet! Dolly looks absolutely amazing as usual! The proud parents are adorable! I was LOL at the picture of you and your children! Such real life and so funny! But you are right they are all such a beautiful gift from God and such a miracle! Praise Him for another sweet, healthy baby!
What the heck do you think they had in that semi? I wont even go into what I'm picturing!
Thank you, Donna, for all the pics! I knew you'd come through for all of us --- Michael has a BEAUTIFUL face and features -- he is just precious! And how SWEET of Caroline ---she definitely looks like she is very capable with her new cousin! Much love and hugs to Dolly and Leland ---they are going to be wonderful parents -- Michael is a loved boy with ALL of you as his family.
CONGRATULATIONS! Little Michael is just adorable!!
CONGRATULATIONS Dolly & Leland, he is adorable!! Good job Auntie Donna with the precious pics..he is a doll!
Awww...I've been out of town, so I'm just now catching up on my blog! He is so beautiful! And SO awake! Thanks for posting the pictures!
Donna, thank you for the pics! I've been DYING to see this little guy since I heard the news. Dolly left me a voicemail on Sat and I was so sad that I missed her call because I want to hear about the whole experience!!! Caroline looks like such a proud cousin and I know you are ALL proud. Michael is a blessed and BEAUTIFUL little boy. :)
What a beautiful baby boy! Thanks for posting these pictures Donna.
I got to hold that sweet boy yesterday and I see Dolly in him too! What a sweet little mouth and nose...he is so cute!!! Donna, I hate I missed seeing you guys. I think you'd left right before I got there. She had so many visitors so I left when things quieted down so they could get some down time. I'm so glad I was able to hold the tiniest Seckman though--it was like holding air he's so tiny!
Congratulations to Mom, Dad, Aunt, Uncle, and the cousins!!! Thanks so much for the pics -- so precious!
Are you foreshadowing that sweet, innocent baby M is going to end up w/ a Russian woman? JUST kiddin but glancin throught the pics w/out reading the captions, I was like...whoa...how does that belong? I had to double take.
Michael is an ANGEL face, PUNKIN, DOLL BABY!!!! Emotional time and I am so happy for you, Dolly!!!!! You look great and he is beautiful just like his sweet mommy. I can't wait to eat him up to pieces.
Don Don, get to work on that sissy, honey. :)
Oh my goodness, that child is precious! I can't tell who he looks like yet...will need a few months to give my opinion on that one. He looks so alert in some of those pictures...must have been checking out his new cuz! And I think Uncle Roy actually liked having his picture taken...he looks so proud of Leroy Jr. :)
How's Dolly doing since she's been home? Is your mom with her?
