This is the motto for the
Commonwealth of Virginia. No joke. When Ethan first told me, I thought he was kidding. But then I saw the Virginia website and there it was. And now we have proof that this statement is true. Please scroll down...
That's right! We are having a baby! We found out on Christmas Eve while we were in Seattle and it was the best present we could ever get. We told our parents, siblings and grandparents and kept it a secret from extended family and friends until we got the green light from our practitioner to spread the news. We had an ultrasound last week and got to see the baby's heart pumping strong and legs/arms moving! The due date is 09.01.10 - we could have a Labor Day baby!
There's the little guy/gal, still in the "bean" stage. In person, we could make out the parts of the baby, but the printout is still a little fuzzy. The head is on the right, the lighter part in the center is the heart and the behind is on the left. Still too early to tell if it's a boy or girl, but we should find out in a couple months. Right now, we are enjoying our free time while we have it and brainstorming baby names. We are thinking Walter Payton, Edgar or Ichiro if it's a boy. Just kidding.

Elin and Ethan,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!! Elin I see you parents usually once a month when they drop off the billings at my office. I've enjoyed following your blog and am so happy for you to start this next chapter of life. You will make wonderful parents. Take care! ~Marci Walden~
Thanks, Marci! Great to hear from you. My parents have told me they see you when they make deliveries on campus. :) Thanks for following our blog. I'll try to visit SPU the next time I am in Seattle and I'll drop by Finance. Take care!
