Adam William Baxter

To Adam, our new little baby.

We were so excited to have you in our family! You were born on January 28th, 2009. When you were born, you weighed 8 lbs, 10 oz. You were 19 1/2 inches long. Here you are just an hour after you were born. You were on your stomach because you had a rough time breathing . . . but the respiratory therapist helped!



You now belong to a family of . . (gulp), FIVE! Can you feel the love we have for you! It is almost palpable!



So now what? You may ask. Well, let me introduce us to you. We love to swim, go for walks, camping, bike riding, and doughnuts - especially the powdered ones and the chocolate ones . . mmmm...

Oh yeah, there may be one more thing to add. You have a brother and a sister. Here they are:


Sorry Dude!

More Picture FUN...

He is SO cute! I spotlighted Ethan in Primary and told the story about when he found a quarter in Sac. Mtg. and wanted to put it in the lost and found because he knew it wasn't his. We talked about how being honest is part of making an eternal family. Then, I let him share his big brother news. He told the kids his new baby's was Adam, a perfect lead into our lesson about Adam (and Eve)! Everyone that that was pretty neat! This Adam sure is lucky to come to your family! Congrats and take care. As soon as everyone is 100% healthy at our house, we'll have Maile and Ethan come play.

It should say "name" after "he told the kids his new baby's," but I don't know how to edit it!
