Tate, Bubba, Peter, Buddy, Tater, Little Man....

He's here! Tate Martin Taylor was born on January 14, 2011 at 1:16 a.m. He was 6 lbs 8 oz and 19 inches.  He came via c-section because he was simply 'stuck' and wasn't going to come on his own. Even though the whole process was long, I'm already beginning to forget that! We're so in love with him!
He's developed lots of nick names and we keep adding more to the list! His real name however was something that we've been talking about for quite awhile now. I liked the meaning of the name Tate, which is 'cheerful one'. We both think 'Tate Taylor' just sounds like a stud. Martin is after his grandpa Siemers. I think Grandpa Siemers was very proud of this.
I'm just now opening my computer for the first time to blog and upload some pictures...I've just been too content spending every mintue with my new little family that I haven't had to distract myself with these things like I did when we were waiting for him.

We are so blessed. I'll write more details again soon, but for now I'll just add some pictures. Check out our little man...

The BIG cousin Kayson! I have a feeling these two are going to be great buddies! Kayson even gave him a kiss.
Tate is going to look up to his big cousin forever! We can't wait to see them interact! We need a picture of Aunt Nell and Uncle Ryan with Tate!

Aunt Nell!!

How precious is this? Uncle Ryan and Buster!
