Welcome Ethan!

At 4:30am on May 29th, 2012 we skipped (literally) into Ochsner Hospital to have our sweet new baby boy Ethan. After six short hours we were greeted by his cute squeaky cries and went from a family of three to a family of four.

Whenever I think of family of four I always am reminded by those Disney commercials that always have price plans for a family of four... now suddenly I'm a part of one!

When I first saw him I had to do a double take. He looked just like my eldest Elliot! Except way smaller... and purple. The purpleness went away thankfully within a few minutes and we saw dark brown hair, beautiful blue-gray eyes and the skinniest, longest baby we'd ever seen.

Born at 7lbs, 10oz and 21.5 inches long he was a full inch and a half longer than Elliot and 2 oz bigger yet he was so much smaller!

At first Elliot wasn't too excited about this new little bundle... than he figured out it was kind of like a new toy and "What's Dat, What's Dat?" kept flying out of his mouth.

My parents were excited to welcome our new bundle and we were so glad to have him too.

Welcome to the McCarty's Ethan... it's gonna be an adventure!
