4. HOW DID YOU PICK A NAME? We bought a baby name book and took it on a trip to Washington. We both liked Aidan for a first name...and since he was to be born in 1999 and Russ' grandfather was born in 1899 we gave Aidan his grandfathers name as a middle name, Emory.
5. HOW OLD WERE YOU? 246. WHO DID YOU TELL FIRST? my family then Russ'
7. HOW DID YOU TELL YOUR SPOUSE? While trying to contain my excitement (knowing Russ would not be as excited) I said, "Russ, I have good or bad news..." Needless to say he immediately thought it was a joke.

12. WHO/WHAT IRRITATED YOU THE MOST? SMELLS! Ugh! and not being able to roll over in one place. Russ was on an air mattress the last month because I had to actually ROLL from side to side...there was no room for him on our Full size bed. We have a King now.

What a cutie pie he is!
I can't believe you got pregnant SO SOON after getting married!! Wowzer! My cousin got married 13 days before me and they announced their pregnancy at my wedding, so it was literally a wedding night thing for them.
I love the pictures!!
What fun pics. :) I can't believe you got pregnant that quickly after getting married. Wow. :)
Fun! I am now stocking you over blogspot! Just kidding. Love hearing Labor/ pregnancy stories,especially now!
I love that picture of you and Russ and Aiden on his dads chest. Adorable. Wow!! 9 pounds. Ouch!!I need an epidural just thinking about it.
We found out on our 3 week anniversary that we were pregnant, then Joshie was 2 months early. Scandalous.
Hey, I read about your April fools joke on Adhis' blog. Oh I wish I came up with that. Hilarious.
Does the expanse of time since you've blogged mean the other kids aren't blog-worthy?
