Our family is officially a family of five!
Our littlest peanut has already been called Ollie for months now and we couldn't be more excited to finally reveal his name. We had the hardest time picking out a name this time until Ted finally found the name Oliver in a baby name book. We both loved the sound of it and when we heard our kids calling him by name we knew it was the perfect name.
Oliver also happens to be the name of Ted's grandpa Hanes, so we are excited that he has a little piece of his Hanes side of the family in his name. His middle name, Matthias, came to us at my great grandma's funeral. It was the name of my great grandpa Fochs and was the first name that just seemed to fit well with Oliver. Plus, we love that he has a little piece of his Fochs side of the family as well.
More pictures and stories to come, but for today we are just soaking up this little bundle of love and feeling so blessed that he is finally here...and HEALTHY!
congratulations! he's just beautiful.
