Baby Boy officially has a name now.

Well, a little over 24 hours after our little boy was born and the hospital pressuring us for the birth certificate information we (or I should say I) decided on a name. When Christina was 20 weeks pregnant and went to find out if we were having a boy or girl, Christina was so determined that it was a girl that she told me if it was a boy I could pick the name. So, Without any further delay I chose a name that I've liked even before Quinn was born. Our new addition is Ethan Edward Stevulak. Even before we found out it was a boy Christina wanted our next sons middle name to be Edward after her father.

Quinn and Ava met baby brother

they were so excited to see baby brother. They showed up with presents and cupcakes to celebrate his birthday. They sang happy birthday to him. They were really happy to hold their new brother.

Its a Boy

Okay,

We haven't officially agreed on a name yet, but I'm thinking his name will be Ethan. The other two names we have been dicussing are Cole and Brady. Ill call him Ethan from here on out unless there is a name change. Ethan was born at 10:05 central time. From the time Christina received her pitocin to delivery was just over 3 hours. He weighed 6 pounds, much smaller than Quinn(8.8) and Ava(9.1) and is 19 inches long. Both are doing well, Ethan just got checked out by his pediatrician and all is well. He ate for a good 30 minutes right after he was born.

Today is the big day

Well, we are at the hospital. We had to get here at 5am. We just finished checking in and Christina is setup in her room. She's sleeping now just waiting for them to start her pitocin. I will try to keep this blog updated throughout the day, if anyone is interested in following.

Another Update

I had another doctors appointment yesterday. Everything went well, baby is doing good. He looked so cute, I don't know how much bigger he has gotten, but I am dialated to a three now, and I am having a lot of contractions. Matt is flying to Denver tomorrow and will be back on Monday night so I hope nothing happens until after he gets back. I can't believe that he's going to be here so soon. Quinn and Ava are so excited. We've recently received some presents for the baby, and one of them is a blanket that was made by a lady in our ward, tonight I found Ava asleep wrapped up in it. It was so cute. Well, we will let you know what happens. Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Matt's New Plane

Way to go Matt! He passed his final check ride on the new plane he will be flying. It's called an ATR 72. It's twice as big as the plane he was on, and it's American Eagles second biggest plane. We love you Matt, you are such a hard worker and we are so proud of you.

No new weight and a small baby

Well, I went to the doctors today and I didn't gain any weight this last week. Yeah! They did an ultrasound and everything looked good. They took measurements and he is measuring two weeks small. The doctor said this is still with in normal range, but for me it is pretty surprising since Quinn weighed 8.8 lbs and Ava weighed 9.1 lbs and both were born a week early. The doctor said it's because of my liver problems, but that everything still looks good. He's still scheduled to come on February 5th, so we are still just counting down the days. I am dialated to a 2 and 50% effaced, so that will help with the whole induction process. Things are still good, and we are counting our many blessings.
