Ethan's first Dentist Appointment

He is 10 and half months in this picture. The dentist we have suggests to bring kids in around there first birthday. It's mainly to get children used to going to it becomes familiar to them and not scary. The appointment is free. We put Ethan in my lap and the dentist felt his gums and teeth. Ethan was such a good sport. He didn't cry at all. He was fascinated with the dentists gloves. Then he got his first tooth brush. He loves it. The dentist said he did very well.

I was so proud of him.

Stuff

I painted these myself to match the quilt I made Zach for our anniversary

Pictures

Wow he is growing up. He looks so big in this picture.

Snuggling with Mom

Mmmm good. Can't go wrong with Redvines.

Ethan recently decided he doesn't like wearing shirts. The other day he kept trying to take them off. So I finally just let him.

He is sure one happy boy.

Snuggling with his monkey and favorite blanket. We take these everywhere with us.

 So this might come as a shock to some people. But, I didn't know onions do this. I have never had one long enough, that is sprouted like this. Until the other day. Apparently it's very common if you don't use them fast enough. I sent a picture to my friend asking her if her onions have ever done this. I'm pretty sure she got a good laugh at it. But now I know.

Our day in pictures

This is Ethan trying on his Great Uncle Jim's cowboy boots.

Believe it or not this is his fake cry look. He pulls it off very well. He looks so sad but it was a total fake cry.

Ethan learned out to do touch down with his arms. It's kind of blurry. Every time we say touch down, Ethan throws his arms in the air proudly like this.

I made the mistake of one leaving the brand new package of toilet paper on the ground. I also took my eyes off of this little guy for just a second. He sure had fun though.

Hanging out with Mom

My Mom sent Ethan these toys. Ethan was so excited to play and have more toys.

Ducks, ties, and spaghetti

Ethan's tie came undone. So Zach was trying to tie it for me. He was having a hard time doing it. So he finally put it around a toy. 

He finally got it. But then we couldn't get it off. We eventually had to untie it. We got it tied in the end. 

We went on a walk the other day and fed the ducks some bread. Ethan enjoyed it, though I'm not sure he really understood what we were doing.

Eating spaghetti for the first time was very messy to say the least.

Hiking with Mom and Dad

We went hiking with some of our friends last weekend. It was raining when we got there. So I didn't take any pictures until the next day.

I woke up to a phone call from Zach. He called and wanted me to come out of the tent and take a picture of him on this giant rock. My phone camera wouldn't focus on his tiny body. But he is wearing black with jeans on.

I bought this backpack for Zach's Christmas present. We were so excited to finally use it. While everyone was getting ready for the hike I put Ethan in it and tried it on.I think the two of us look pretty cute in this picture.

Ethan was so excited when we started hiking. It was adorable how excited he was.

We camped next to a stream. So we started following it up into a canyon.

I love this picture

Ethan was so tired when we left. But he was enjoying himself so much that he stayed awake the whole hike up. But on the way he crashed.

Ethan had fun but was very happy to get into his car seat.

We stopped on the way home at our friends to drop some stuff off. We let Ethan get out of his car seat for a while. He loves pretending like he can drive.

We are home

Snuggling with his Monkey

Ethan tipped over his GG's walker and loved playing with it. It was the best toy in the house to him.

Love this boy so much

While I was talking to someone on the phone. Ethan wanted me to hold him. I didn't even realize that he had fallen asleep until I got off the phone.

Uncle Tyrel was teaching Ethan how to play the piano.

This boy Loves his monkey that Grandma gave him.

He felt like he was helping me by eating the tools. So sweet.

It's a vent. Who knew a vent could be so exciting to play with.

You can't see it very well. But my parents gave me these animals to put on Ethan's dresser. So I took off the old ones and put on these one's. I think they are so cute.

Snuggling with his monkey again

Taking a picture to send to Grandma and Grandpa. We try to do this daily.

Hi Mom

My Mom bought this sports light switch cover. I think it's adorable.

Ethan loves loves loves his Daddy. I absolutely love this picture. It shows how small Ethan is next to Zach. Just before I took this picture Ethan was staring up at Zach. But by the time I got my camera he looked away. I sure love these two boys. I call them my Boys because I feel like I am taking care of both of them.
