Happy First Birthday Baby Ethan. You have been the perfect addition to our very boyish family, bringing a love of cars and trucks to our Star Wars, Lego, Ben Ten mix. You have a smile that melts the heart of all the Remington boys (and makes them instantly offer to share whatever they are doing) and a way to look at me that makes the crazy days of having three boys okay.

In one year you've been all over, from South Dakota, to Florida, to Ohio, to Louisiana. What a full year! Your daddy hadn't been to that many states until a year or two ago :) Not only did you get to travel, but you were able to meet lots of people that just aren't around because of distance. You charmed all of those people, too...and let's not forget Ms. Kylee, who also turns one today. Ethan has charmed her, too. :)

Before you made your grand appearance (staying in my womb long enough for the grandparents to get here), we called you "Fat Baby"...I believe Daddy came up with that name. We didn't know how true it would be...you've tipped the scales at every well baby check up! That's okay...the extra padding has been perfect to provide a bit of extra comfort from the rough and tumble ways of your older brothers.

Your easy-going mannerisms fit in just right with the rest of the crew and we are so lucky to have you. Thank you for coming to earth to be with us for the rest of eternity.

We love you Fat Baby Ethan Pierre!!!!
