97 days

The Grandparents!

Lito and Lita

I thought that my mom and dad wouldn't be that excited about having another grandbaby.  I mean they already had 12.  So on my 8 week appointment, I brought them the picture of the sonogram and they were very excited.  It made me feel really good.  If I could pick out traits that came from each of them, I would want Ethan to have my father's sense of humor and my mother's faith in the Lord.  They are such amazing people.

I knew they would be excited.  Ethan will be their second grandbaby.  We were also excited to tell them because we knew they would be overjoyed.  We met them at a restaurant in Fort Worth, July 12.  I kept this a secret from them for a while because we wanted to tell them alone and in a special way.  We spent a weekend with them at their lake-house and it was really tough to keep that a secret when you are running to the bathroom every few seconds.  It turned out perfect though because we gave Cherri a cross that said "Grandma"  and Jason asked, "Can you afford another?"  We hugged, cried, and had a wonderful celebration. 
 If I could pick out traits that came from each of them, I would want Ethan to have Butch's wisdom and Cherri's servant's heart.  They too are an amazing couple.

Ethan is one lucky baby.
