Hi everyone... exciting news. We are an Aunt & Uncle again. Eric' brother, Travis, and his wife, Stephanie, adopted a baby boy. He was born on Thursday, and they were able to bring him home from "The Cradle" in Evanston yesterday. His name is Jackson (Jack) Lee Noyd, and he is precious. Jack is a big boy weighing in at 9 pounds, 5 ounces and measures 22 inches long.

Needless to say the entire Noyd clan is super excited to have this new addition. Personally, I think it is exciting that I am no longer the "newest" Noyd. Praise the Lord for blessing Travis and Steff with this sweet baby boy.
This brings the niece/nephew total to a grand total of eight. We used to affectionately call our "heirs" the "Magnificent Seven"... any ideas for a new nickname for the clan?
Here are a few pictures.
Alec & Katie seem to be worried Uncle Eric is going to drop Jack
Aunt Jane wants to make sure Jack appreciates the value of a good micro-brew (really it is ever too early to learn that)... hence I wore the Yazoo Beer-Nashville t-shirt for our first meeting.
The obvious would be Crazy Eight(s). You could also refer to yourselves as OctoAunt/Uncle. Just an idea.
ReplyDeleteOh, and congrats to Travis and Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteI think depending on their behavior and/or our mood at the time we will go with either "Crazy Eight(s)" (btw Nik, my favorite card game as a child) or "The Elite Eight"
