Cousins

Ethan & Ewan

Ethan & Ewan are about 3 months apart. Can you tell who's older??

Grandpa Joe with Ewan

Daddy with Ethan on the day we came home from the hospital. We stopped into Jeff's work to show off our little bundle of joy. Jeff has a picture of Tyler & him like this so he wanted to do the same with Ethan. He's a company man all the way.

Our 1st Anniversary

Happy 1st Anniversary to us! One year ago Jeff & I said "I do"....I can't believe it's been a year already.
This was my favourite part of our whole day...well, yes the kiss but I really mean the ceremony. For me if we didn't have a reception that would have been fine. The ceremony was the best part - the memory I look back on and smile and remember every detail. I'd do it again...it was the happiest I felt in my life.
It's hard to believe it's been a year, it doesn't seem like it. Still feels like were on our honeymoon. Guess that's a good thing. You know what an even better thing is? We have a son, the one created from that love. For that we are blessed.
Here's to a year of marriage under our belts and many more years to come. Cheers!

Our First Walk

Our second week home and we finally managed to get out for a walk. We tried all week and finally got out near the end of the week. We had four dogs run at us...not sure if they were going to do anything...all were off leash and no "Master" in sight. It felt like a test. Luckily nothing happened and our walk was a success.

Bath time

Daddy gives Ethan his first bath at home. He cried the whole time, as you can see. It can only get better....Even though he's crying he's still very cute!!

I'm Home

Our little man is home.

The Longtin Family

The Longtin family heads home with their precious babe.
Just minutes before leaving the hospital we named Bumpkin - Ethan Wyatt Longtin.
We had a hard time coming up with his name. Ethan means strong, firm. Jeff said he was a strong little guy and when I saw that's what Ethan meant, it stuck. Jeff liked the name Wyatt...so that's how he became Ethan Wyatt.
