Just Plain Fun

Ethan finally got to play with his race car track yesterday.Well Daddy and Ethan as you can see both of them on the floor having a good time.It didn't take Ethan long how to work it either.Its cute now but hopefully the newness will wear off a little by the end of the week.If hes not eating or sleeping in the last 24 hours its on over and over.Its all good though.
Just look at his face its moments like this that will be treasured forever.Especially when both daddy and son are playing together.
See we figured out the go button really quick.
Crazy Chatter!He would not give his new toy for anything.
You cannot have it its mine human!
Go away don't even think it he says
Pretty Callie girl!

Ethans 2nd Christmas!

Well we just got back from a rather busy yet fun week of seeing family over Christmas.Ethan was in much better spirits this time then at Thanksgiving.Mainly because he was not cutting four teeth;).We left for Live Oak Monday morning and he was ready to go.He loves to travel and does better during daylight hours then night hours for some reason to.

It didn't take him 20 minutes before he was out like a light.
We woke up just in time for lunch and we were rather excited about it.It seemed like he didn't stop eating all week long.
We spent Christmas Eve at my Aunts house in South Ga and actually managed to get all the cousins (except my brother) at once.Ahh my crazy family who I don't get to see nearly enough;).
Natalie and me.We have been best friends since we were babies.
Christmas Morning at Beaus parents.Ethan is wondering what was in store for him today.No telling when you visit family.
Ethan is showing his Grammie how the legos are supposed to go together.
At first he was only interested in the bright tissue paper.Then he saw others things coming out of the paper then we became involved.
Big old grin as he gives his new stuffed frog a hug.
Ooo!Mommy what is this.It has wheels that is good enough for my interest.
His John Deere Tracker set became a favorite really quick
Cool Chopper it makes take off noises and everything
Friday morning we headed over to my Grandmas in Jacksonville for another day of food and presents.He ate,upwrapped and head to napping land soon there afterwards;)
He got the Tadoodles markers.those things are cool. A cool Vtech Phone that did all sorts of neat stuff.
On our way home Saturday afternoon he fought it with everything he could but his little eyes finally gave in.He had a busy week.
We had pizza saturday night because it was easy and I like easy especailly when we just get back from traveling.He just dived into it.Its been awile since he has made this good a mess.
Good pizza mommy.

We are climbing

We are now climbing and really loving it.Of course I'm still scared that he will try and walk off the couch(again!)and damage something and not really his head so much as other things around him.I put pillows and blankets all around in cause but most of the time he does good about getting down the correct way.The only thing we haven't conquered yet is our bed because its a little higher.
He turned 18 months this week and he actually let me measure him(35 and a third inches) but I have not a clue what he weighs since we will not stand still long enough to get on the scale;-).He doesn't go back for a check up till after the new year then we don't have to go for 6 months YEAH!.
We are up up swinging that leg and....
We are on couch YEAH he says.Look at that big toothy grin.
We are all proud of ourselves thank you very much!
Something required him to drop his jaw,I have no idea what though.

Thanksgiving "08"

Well Ethan had his first Thanksgiving away from last month and I don't know what was up with him but he was completely out of sorts for no other reason that I could see except teething.We went to my Grandmothers first for Wednesday Thursday and part of Friday.He loves his Gigi which I'm so glad too seeing that he doesn't get to see her but 3 or 4 times a year.

This was the only picture I got all weekend with a true smile.
Both about to fall asleep after a big lunch and watching football.

A early present from Beau's parents for Ethan although he wasn't in the mood to ride or be civilized about anything.Cute though isn't it hopefully I can pictures of him riding it at christmas.

He has been very Daddy attached since we left in which for Beau to even get a shower we had to peel him off and hear the meltdowns for a few minutes there afterwards.
So sweet though.

Outside with his pops looking at the decorated tree outside that everyone helped with while he napped Friday.Again no smiles.
And again look at that pouty face,More mad I think then anything.
One of the rare moments he actually stayed in his chair and ate.Did not want to sit in the chair and eat.He would rather sit in Beaus lap and eat instead.
Rhonni(Beaus mom) taking him for a ride in the Golf Cart they have.And the faster it went the better.Actually got a smile a few times out of him too.
