Chris and I thought it would be nice to start a blog to post pictures and stories about our family now that we have a new member. Ethan Merritt Brown was born at 5:18am on August 31st. He was 8 lbs. 8 oz. and was 21 inches long.
Grandma and Grandpa Moots came up and spent several days with us to help us adjust to our big life change. They were such a big help! He's met lots of people in his first few days: Grandma Janet and Grandpa Greg, Aunt Jenny and Uncle Tommy and his cousin Tegan, Uncle Matt and Aunt Rebekah, Great Aunt Kathy and Great Uncle Jerry, Uncle Scott and Aunt Laura and his cousins David, Jaron, Kyle and Landan, Uncle Nathan and Aunt Shannon, Great Uncle Ray and Great Aunt Carolyn, Eric and Yvonne Springer, Ryland and Lauren Walter, Kathryn Lenox and Amy Whitehead and there are still many more to come!
He loves his bouncy seat and laying on his side after eating. He makes some of the most interesting faces...they are mostly angry faces!! He perfected his scream our first night home around 3:00am. Most nights now he sleeps 3-4 hours at a time and then I usually have to wake him up to eat.
Chris and I had several opportunities to have some "us" time while Grandma and Grandpa were here. We went to Starbucks one morning and walked to Dairy Queen one evening. We will definately keep that tradition up, it was so nice to get out and about.
We'll do the best we can to keep you updated...I'm sure we will have plenty to report as the days go by.
