William Edison Alexander is Here!



Ta da! The new edition to our family arrived Feb. 13th at 7 pounds 7 ounces, 22 inches long. It was Friday the 13th, with a full moon...what an entrance! Because the little guy started out with the nickname of Et ( Nate thought he looked like an alien in the ultra sound pictures...E.T.) we can't help but call him by his middle name, Edison. So there it is! Little Edison Alexander. Though there is little sleep, and tremendous amounts of diapers, we love having him with us and are excited to be the parents of such a handsome little boy.

He is so cute! I feel terrible I haven't sent you his little bibs yet. They've been done forever! I'll get them in the mail for my new little nephew sometime this week.

:) Love you guys!

Hooray! He's adorable! (And you still look like a total babe after giving birth! Woo hoo!)
Enjoy every moment & look forward to the time when you don't have to change 8+ diapers a day.

April, congratulations. I'm glad that he's healthy and you seem to be doing well. Our two little guys arrived just about a week apart. So fun!
