We recently watched Ewan's birth video as a family. All the kids got a kick out of the fact that pretty much right after the nurse put him on my tummy, he peed and it went right into my mouth...they talked about it for days. What struck me the most (as it does every time I watch it) was how emotional I was. I cried a cry of such joy and relief. It was almost exactly 1year from the day that I had delivered our little Connor in the same delivery room. Ewan's presence in our family has been such a blessing from those first moments of heeling, to the sweet tender spirit of love and affection he blesses us with now.
Ewan's first Halloween.

Ewan on his first Birthday
Asleep in Daddy's arms. What an angel.
Heather and Ewan are only 15 months apart. He calls her Headah and she calls him Weewen.
It NEVER surprises me what Ewan will get up to/into. Oh the stories I will have to tell about this kid for years to come...Here is a little example of his handy work from just this week. He wanted to have some strawberries with chocolate sauce on them, I prepared the strawberries in a bowl and then got distracted for a moment. When I came back, he had put the chocolate sauce on himself... 
With Daddy this past 4th of July.
Ewan idolizes his older brother. He almost always just wants to be where ever Cameron is, doing what ever Cameron is doing.
He is such a joyful, loving little boy. So free with his kisses and hugs. He tells me he loves me all of the time and brings me so much joy. We are so blessed to have him in our family!
Mommy loves you Ewan...

Very sweet! Happy Birthday, Ewan!
Wow. I remember when Ewan was Baby Ewan. He's grown into such a cute boy. It was cool to look back and remember what a cute baby he was, too. Happy Birthday, Weewen!
p.s. Nice make-up job in the delivery room. Looks like you didn't even break a sweat. :)
Yeah Randi, that's not how I remember her either. It looks like a set from a Soap Opera.
We were watching a video of the kids of when they were here 2 months ago, and Ewan lying next to me as I do my fat lady exercises, thank heavens he is there as he is so cute to watch nobody wants to watch the whale move around. He is whispering sweet nothings in my ears and trying to follow my MOVES!!! I would have dad erase it if it wasn't for how cute he is.
He's as much work as a box full of monkeys, but as sweet as they come and we are so glad he is part of our family. "We love you Birthday Boy." Nanny and Papa.
Happy Birthday Ewan! What a great post with all the memories. That's hillarious that he peed in your mouth the first time you saw him. I loved all the sibling pictures. I hope my next ones can be cloe in age like that.
Happy Birthday EWAN!!!:) My favorite story of Ewan is the one when he woke up around 5 am and was eating Nestle Quick out of the carton & your neighbor found him. SO funny!:) We love you Ewan!
Rebecca, you are so beautiful in the pic for just having labored a baby! You've always seemed like such an even-tempered sweet mother- and you are!! That picture just seems to describe it all so perfectly!
