He growing up fast!

We had a fun Mothers Day weekend.Ethan now has his own little pool to play in so for those days we can't get over to Grandma and Papas he can still cool off in what was real summer weather this past weekend.He is his own personality now thats for sure.He is saying about 75 to 100 words clearly and my not even 2 year old can count to 10:D I'm so proud.He also knows most of his ABC's and this will help out a lot for when he goes to preschool in the fall too.He's ready too.
Daddy is throwing him on bed which loves too.The rougher the better.

He brought the camera to me and said picsure then said "Cheese"

His new little pool isn't it cute

That says it all right!

A nice sunny friday afternoon.

He loves those foam letters and numbers.When you throw them against the wall in the tub they stick:)

Mr.Cool here.Just got back from taking a walk and he kept the glasses on.

This is a bedtime routine that these two have created.The rougher the better like I said before.To the Grandmothers Ethan loves to be tossed like this too so do not worry or get on to Beau about it.Its so cool to see him want to play and roughhouse with Daddy till he gets to the point where he can hurt Beau then we will have to figure out something different;-)

Zoo Day!

My parents and us took Ethan to the Zoo this past weekend.It was a nice day out and we got our dose of exercise thats for sure he ran all over the place.The stroller lasted about maybe 5 minutes at a time.Its always fun though(tiring but fun).
Getting kisses from the Giraffe!

The Jaguars are always my favorite.The cubs have gotten huge as big as mommy now.

Have a good old brother-sister play fight!

The Otters were all wound up.Probably getting restless for their lunch to show up.

They were coming right up to the glass,clowning around was a bonus for everyone watching too.

Sun got in his eyes still a good picture though.

He loved the Otters mainly cause he could run up and down the stairs and ramps.TOO MUCH ENERGY!Or I don't have enough:P

Top of the stairs with Papa and Me!

Have to get a picture of the Gators don't we!

Three Rhinos pushing for a spot in the nice cool mud hole.

Little Warty Pig,Kinda cute in a odd sort of way!

MMMM!Applesauce!

Ethan has developed an addiction to Applesauce it seems.Does not care what the flavor or what he eats it with.Everything goes with Applesauce:P.He goes though one of those large jars in under 2 weeks.Note:Ketchup and Applesauce make a favorite combo dipping sauce in his opinion:D.Gross I know but not to him.

Easter Fun!

Ethan got to color Eggs this year on his own.It was so much fun watching him.We got to have all four grandparents down this Easter too which was nice.As soon as he saw he was going to get to make a mess and not get in trouble for it he dove right in.

Enjoying himself very much!
Green became a color favorite.

Onto the blue!

Just chillin or posing for the camera,maybe both. Cheesy grin,happy boy!Surprising no one jumped at the chance to give him a bath afterwards:P

Ethans finished results,not bad for a 22 month old.Some were kinda neat too.

All dressed up Easter morning,So Cute and Handsome

Kinda of a strange smile given here but hey it works!

The Good Life

My cats know they have the good life and they are not afraid to show at any time.Take Chatter I claim him to be Beau's cat but he just a all around family cat most of the time.The pictures I took of them may make them look small too,but these two are packing at about 10 lbs a piece.Well he may be more now because hes grown since I took him in for his checkup.

Is he winking,I just noticed that.

I put her into that position and she stayed,a little lazy we were;-)

The fan is hitting their bellies(hehe)

Say no to those green eyes

I don't think anyone can see me in here,if I stay completely still maybe he will go away.

I took a picture of her when she was tiny and its almost the same in every way shes just grown A LOT!!

Watching over Ethan as he plays below,just like a Lion watching over his pack;)

Smarty-Pants Dance!

Ethan loves to dance and as long as you keep watching him he will keep going.He makes himself so dizzy all the time and falls over and thinks its so funny.Enjoy!!

The New Do!!

It was Time It was Do.Ethan went in to get his hair cut this morning for the first time.I have been keeping it trimmed as much as I could do by myself so far.I took him to Snip-Its just to see what all my friends were raving about and it was cool in there I would like to get mine cut there.He immediately went over to the big steering wheels and mirrors they had.He just kept looking at me like what are you doing to me mommy?
We put him in the chair he had a little resistance at first,but once we found what worked(the bubbles,crackers and mirrors)then he stay perfectly still and did just fine.Thats why you will see most of the pictures with something in his mouth too cause he was chowing down on some Animal Crackers.

After I had to drag him out of there screaming(because he didn't want it leave) I tried to get a after picture of him.Which I would have prefered without something in his mouth but you get what you can take sometimes with toddlers.

We went by and got some Chicken Fingers on the way home for lunch for being such a good boy this morning too.Just chowing down once again.

Intently watching T.V. as I try to take his picture again.Still with the food in the mouth as you can tell.This seems to be turning into a tread.HMMM;)
