The First 24

Ethan Thaddeus Lawrence is one stubborn little fella. He finally decided to make his grand appearance on August 23rd 2010 at 6:27 pm. 8 Days past his due date. He was 7lbs 10oz and 21 1/2 inches long.

My words can not describe the grandeur of the event and subsequent feelings so I will let you feel it through the images that were captured during Ethan’s first 24 hours…

All this new life outside of the womb takes its toll…

A HUGE thanks goes out to everyone who was there to stand by our side as we passed through this monumental moment in life! We couldn’t have done it without all of your love and support! Sarah’s sister Krista, of KM Photography, took many of the images you see here.

And lastly, as most of you know, this starts our new 365 Project with 3 people. So keep an eye out for things to come!!

    Ethan is ADORABLE!!! I love the video! Sarah what did you do to the poor little guy? He’s completely out for the count. At first he looks like a doll until Dad startles him! lol
    What a blessing!! Can’t wait to see him in person!!

    Wow. Congratulations! What great pictures. Is it my imagination, or does Ethan bear resemblance to GraceLee’s baby pictures?
