I have yet to meet him, but news is that he's 7lbs 14oz, is very pink and has lots of fluffy hair. Awwwwww. I'll go take a look later today and share pics of brand new babyness with you all!
I threw a baby shower for him 2 weeks ago with an E is for Ethan theme:

I ordered this E is for Ethan banner from an awesome seller who was easy to work with and did a really great job.


The favors were brownie bites in little cello bags with an E is for Ethan tag. Cute bucket from Target's $2.50 spot.


I also made cupcake pics (which was a total pain in the butt). Publix made the cupcakes and they were delicious as always.
I had ordered an elephant stuffed animal to match the elephants in the Shutterfly invite from Auntie Jill (who I've worked with before--she's amazing, her toys are heirloom quality, she's super easy to work with and I love her snuggle bunnies) but I had post office issues so I didn't get it in time for the shower. I have it now and it is darling, soft and squishy in blue and brown retro-style fabrics with "E is for Ethan" embroidered onto his ear. I will take pics of it (with Ethan himself!) later today.
New babies are so exciting. The world seems a little less boring and a little more hopeful today.
