The Ethan Has Landed


Ethan Emory Mudrick joined us a 11:07 this morning, on his exact due date (and one day from a full moon, Dad). He is 20 inches and weighs 7 lbs, 6 oz. He and Amanda are doing well. More pictures to come.

I remember that science experiment. Does he have a hairy back and big K-9 teeth?

He's a handsome fella. We can't wait to come up and meet him.

Dear Ben, Amanda, and Ethan,
We are so excited and can't wait to meet him.
When Ben called to tell me this morning I was actually driving by Emory, North Carolina! Due date baby. I'm impressed.
Love Gma M.

Full moon, nothing. Does he have attached or detached ear lobes? (He's covering them up in the photo.)
Love Gpa M.

Oh my goodness I'm so happy for you two!! Congratulations!! Stef had her baby 12:00 Sunday morning. How close is that?!

The Harrisons said...

Congrats! I was planning on calling you yesterday, but we've been low on minutes and my phone died! Good thing I didn't though because you would have been unable to talk. I think it's perfect that he came on his due date since I feel like you guys are always on time as well! I can't wait to hear from you!
