CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

To our friends Erin and Taro on the birth of their son! Erin and I met in 7th grade and have been friends ever since. We have always kept in touch (if loosely) and then ended up being pregnant at the same time. It's been so fun going through our pregnancies together! I felt like she was a huge part of mine as we compared notes and shared the milestones of gestation with each other. :)

Today she gave birth to a 21 inch long, 8 lb. 15 1/2 ounce bouncing baby boy! Jonathan and Josiah are so excited about their new Iowan friend - and we can't wait to hear his name. :) Congrats, Erin and Taro - we love you all!! Welcome to the world Baby Boy!
