There is something about having a little boy. He is the most amazing, adorable little guy, but I worry that someday he'll leave me....yet that's what you want for your children, to leave the nest and be successful...

We have been having lots of fun lately! Ethan is signing like crazy, and even saying some words. Water, shoes, juice, cheese, please...of course, in baby words...wawa, juz, chees, etc....so cute!

We had lots of fun this week! We have been doing Safe Start swimming lessons for the past 2 weeks, and i'm very proud of him!





He is getting better at floating, and can swim to the wall and hold himself up! He's getting better everyday! I am exhausted for bringing him there, changing him, watching for 10 mins, changing him into dry clothes, getting him to the car, etc!

Ethan has started eating scrambled eggs, and has eaten cantaloupe, watermelon, honeydew, pineapple, and peaches!! I hope he keeps it up!

Wow, it's been almost a complete year!

Not going to even try to explain, but well, time gets away from you. It's a new year...Ethan is 15 months old!! I am going to try to use this as a way for me to document things for him. I find I can hardly remember a few months ago...no way i'm going to remember the small things years from now when he wants to hear stories!

This weekend Friday-Monday, Stephen took off, so we are having a Staycation. Friday we went to Busch Gardens. We had so much fun, we can't wait to go back! Ethan had fun looking at the animals, and on the rides at the Sesame Safari kids area. There were splash pads galore! One story is that while Ethan was playing in the sand pit, he saw this big, yellow, bouncy floor thing. I knew he was too little, but he climbed out of the sand pit, and fell over a barrier trying to get to it. I picked him up, and he was kicking and yelling and trying to get to the bouncy floor. I waited with him in line, and we got on it. He was on it for 20 seconds before some big kid jumped and he fell down, and cried. I grabbed him out, but boy, i'm proud of my brave little boy! He usually just goes for it, plays well, and loves to climb and play. Here are some pictures!
