What a difference a year can make...

Holden has been prepping to become a big brother. He predicts baby brother will have yellow hair, 2 eyes, 2 hands and 2 fingers, and will be the size of his thumb. And just so you know, babies can't wear iron man masks, only big boys!

Welcome to the world

Luca William Merrell was born Monday, 3/11/13 at 1:53 in the afternoon. He was a pipsqueeky 7 lbs 3 oz and 20 inches as opposed to his big brother who was 8 lbs and 21 inches. We knew we had the right baby when the first thing the nurses said was "Look at that blonde hair!!!"

Why do you keep calling me Holden?!

My name is Luca, get it straight!
Holden picked out Luca's very first toy, he likes green according to Holden.

Welcome home Luca

With the best greeting from big brother

We are going to be the two best brothers that anybody has ever had!
