Baby Ethan

I have never anticipated labor as much as I did with this baby. All the other kids surprised me by coming early, so when this little guy decided stick with me an extra two weeks, I was a little surprised and anxious. But he made it here safely and he is beyond handsome.

Check out his rockin' going home outfit.

We had such a hard time deciding on a name this time around. When the name Ethan was put on the table, John finally didn't shoot me down. (Mostly because he heard it on a John Wayne movie.) I thought the name was perfect except for the fact that every time I pictured an Ethan, I pictured a dark haired kid. Chances of that happening were slim, since both of us have a light hair color. So when he showed up tall, dark and handsome; I knew we had the right name.


Just look at those squeezable cheeks.


He got to come home on Easter Sunday.


Now I have the four most beautiful, perfect children in the whole world. I'm such a spoiled mommy!

I am the one who suggested the name of Ethan, and you liked it. and it is the name of John Wayne's character in the movie "The Searchers" Just to set the record straight.
