Sweet, Sweet Boy...

Ethan's been a real ham lately.... well, Ham / Stinker. He he is
showing off his sweeter side at Grandpa's house. Not sure what to
call this pose... but he was pretty funny just chillin in this chair!

Hat

We had a great time visiting trish and grandma great today! Ethan
loves playing with all their toys. He found grandma's gardening hats
today and decided to wear them around. Have I mentioned how much he
loves hats?!

Ethan also loves his teachers at daycare, especialy Victoria. This
morning was the first time I heard him ask for Victoria after he first
woke up. Usually it goes "mommy, daddy, cori". He has learned that
sometimes cori comes to save him in the morning. He usually wakes up
whiney and ends up singing to himself.

Ethan last week....

Last weekend Ethan was really fighting his nap.  On Saturday we put him in his crib at 1:15 and he stayed there playing until almost 3:30 when he finally quit singing, talking, and playing with his toys and fell asleep.  We had to leave the house at 4:30pm and came up to find him like a sweet little angel in his crib passed out.  We couldn't resist taking pictures before we woke him up and he turned into a low blood sugar terror (since his missed his mid afternoon snack (and refused to eat much at lunch to boot).

Later at Dinner he was pretty hungry and ate well.  We headed off to Claim Jumper's for Leann's Birthday Celebration where he had is first bites out of an apple on his own. It was a mini apple but he seemed to like us allowing him to eat it on his own with out cutting it up for him.   I played around with the picture a bit in a new iPhone application I purchased called ColorSplash that turns your pictures black and white and then lets you reveal the color by swiping your finger on the screen.  It's super cool and very addictive!

Lastly at Leann's birthday dinner at Dad's house we let Ethan dig into a birthday cupcake of Leann's all on his own.  He choose to forgo the actual cupcake and instead focus on the frosting.... The picture I took of him licking the frosting off the top didn't come out but this one of him picking the frosting off the top with his fingers did.  Enjoy!

Fun time!

Ethan and I had a good time at Tempe marketplace today. We had lunch
with cousin Emilie and Declan. We also went to the splash pad and ran
around. Ethan had a good time getting his wonder pets wet and
splashing them in the water. Ethan was ready to go after a half an
hour since it was after his nap time. I decided to stop into a store
before we headed home and he didn't like that. He kept saying "home"
as we walked though the store, so we were only there for 5 min. He
was asleep before we left the parking lot.
