Allow me to introduce to you...

Miss Kinley Elizabeth Dockery.

This is my brand new niece. By brand new I mean, like, 2 hours and 15 minutes ago. She tipped the scales at a whopping 5 pounds, 8 ounces, and an astounding 18 inches long. I have thrown bigger fish than that back.

But it's official. I am now a full-fledged, sho' nuff uncle. You would think that I would remember to take my camera with me to the hospital to record the birth of my first niece, but no. I had to use my Blackberry. Not a very good start to my uncle-ing. I'll grow into it.

Congratulations to proud parents, Mitzi and Shane. And praise to God for once again showing me the amazing wonder of His creation.
