Ezra Manochehr Eaton
Born January 6, 2012
8 pounds 6 ounces
Ezra is healthy
and quiet and sleepy and perfect. Last night was our first night taking care of
him and I think Tim and I both fell in instant love with this little guy. We
can’t figure out who he looks like yet. He’s sort of his own guy. He has some
brown hair but it doesn’t seem like he’ll have brown eyes. We had the hardest
time naming him. We waited until the very last second to choose one. We were
sure about the Persian middle name after my dad but we were struggling with
these 5 names: Jude, Clyde, Ezra, Otis, Emerson. We seriously couldn’t pick
one.
I can’t believe
how delightful having a newborn is. I love everything about it. They smell
amazing, the cute noises, the chicklit sized diapers, the froggy legs, the soft skin, they are the
snuggliest, and the teeny-tiny-ness…everything! I get so excited to wake up and
feed him in the night and be alone together. It’s my favorite part. Tim
and I were just remarking on the reverent feeling it is to have a new baby in
your home. We are feeling so thankful for a healthy little boy and for all the
friends and family to share the specialness with.
