Fun weekend...

This weekend we traveled up north to see Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Chris. I took my first trip into New York City on Saturday...it was cold and there were lots of people from what I could see. Mommy had me so wrapped up I could barely see anything! But I did get to meet Donald and Daisy Duck at the Disney store, that was fun. I also had my first taste of carrots and loved them...Mommy claims she doesn't like them because everything I own is now turning orange!! On our trip home today we drove through lots of snow...still learning and trying new things everyday ~ Ethan

Green Beans...Please!!!

I had my first taste of green beans this weekend...ah not so good but I guess I will learn to like them;0). They are a little tart for my taste buds. Yesterday was Granny's birthday and we surprised her at brunch with her, Papa, Uncle Chris, Aunt Angie, and Grayson. She was so happy to see us!! Hope you all have a nice day ~ Ethan

I am 6 months old today....

"Baby it's cold outside...."

So they keep tell me that it is the coldest day of the year! I wouldn't know because Mommy and I are playing inside, she told me it was too cold for babies out there. That is fine with me, I'm sure I can find something to do or get into at home!! Everyday is becoming more and more exciting...~Ethan

Fun Weekend...

We all had a fun weekend and I hope you did too!! On Saturday Mommy (and Daddy's :)) college roommates came over. I got to play with my friend Michael and hang out with Ms. Missy and Mrs. Katie. It was crazy to think that they have now known each other for 10 years...Mommy and Daddy must be getting old:). On Sunday we did some shopping in the morning and decided to stay in for the super bowl. I didn't make it to the end....~Ethan

Peek-a-boo....

Mommy and I are having so much fun playing together everyday!! I am always looking to learn something new....I can't wait until I am on the move. I think Mommy can...wait that is! I just see things now that I want and I can't get to them without help...someday ~Ethan

My New Best Friends...

Sing it baby...

I love my new toys...well what I should say is I love putting all my new toys in my mouth. It is driving Mommy and Daddy crazy because I cut my mouth a couple of weeks ago and now they are so scared that everything is going to cut me...but it feels so good on my gums!! Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Chris came and visited me this past week for a few days. Since it was so cold out we just hung out at home and played. Grandma taught Mommy how to make apple sauce for me and it was good!! ~Ethan

Look at me....

I'm a big boy....I am learning to sit up (with a little help that is:)).

~Ethan

Let it snow...Let it snow....Let it snow....

We had our first taste of snow yesterday. Daddy took me outside to see the snow and one snow flake hit my nose. The snow was pretty but cold. Mommy and I stayed inside today...it was a lazy Monday for us....hope everyone has a good week ~ Ethan

Rolling...Rolling...Rolling...

I can't seem to say on my back anymore...everything is so much better on my stomach!! That is until I get tired and can't move anywhere, then it isn't so much fun. Yesterday was my Uncle Chris' birthday and him, Aunt Angie and my cousin Grayson were up for a visit. I had a lot of fun watching Grayson play...pretty soon I will be able to join him! The best thing about there visit was they bought me a cool new toy box...I love it (thanks guys:)). I know Mommy loves it too because now she has something to put all my toys in and they aren't all over the place!! Hope everyone has a great weekend ~ Ethan

Another Month...

Yesterday was a happy and sad day.......I turned 5 months old but the Giants lost:(. I even took a nap before the game so I could last and cheer the Giants on but it didn't work....maybe next year. Now that I am 5 months old I am growing and learning new things everyday. I like to roll over a lot from my back to my stomach, it is a whole new view and world from this angle!! I hope everyone has a good week ~ Ethan

Lunch with Papa...

Papa met us for lunch today before his trip out west...wish we were going, I like to ride on airplanes!! Other then that we have just been playing around the house. I love to try to pull all the things on my activity gym and get mad when they don't come off. It's a rainy day here so maybe I will take a nap this afternoon...that would make mommy happy!! ~Ethan

Happy New Year...

I hope everyone had a great holiday...mine was fantastic!! I got to travel up and down the east coast. We went up to Jersey before Christmas and Santa visited me there and then we went down to Richmond and Santa visited me there and then back home again and yep you guessed it Santa visited me at home!!! I must have been a good boy because I got lots of cool toys. Mom is still trying to find room for all my new things!! This weekend I will be five months old and can't wait to see what happens this month~Ethan

I DID IT!!!

I rolled over last night, from my back to my stomach and I didn't even get mad!! I guess Mommy and Daddy are really going to have to watch me now. Pretty soon I am going to be on the move and they won't be able to catch me...hopefully with Daddy and Mommy's genes I will be fast!! But for now I will settle for rolling over...Ethan

4 Months Old!!!!

So I am turning into a big boy right before your eyes!! I turned four months old last week and so much has changed!! I now sleep in my big boy crib...I didn't like it so much the first couple of nights but I am slowly getting the hang of it. I also had my first taste of rice cereal. It was tasty!! I think I like chewing on the spoon more then actually eating the cereal. Mommy was going crazy because I have it all over me and Daddy kept taking my picture so I had too smile. I mean really Mom, how can I smile and eat at the same time without it getting all over me!! I also went and saw Santa last week...he wrote my name down on his good list. I'm not really sure what that means but I guess I will find out on December 25th...Ethan

It's been too long...

Sorry I haven't wrote in a long time...we have been quite busy. Mommy and Daddy decided to have Mommy stay home with me the rest of the school year...needless to say I am so excited!! We went and visited Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Chris this weekend, it was a quick trip. Grandma had eye surgery today and the doctor said everything went well. Also Granny and Papa are down in Texas because Papa is donating some of his stem cells to my Great Uncle Clarence....speaking of doctors....I go to the doctor on Friday for my 4 month check up!! Yes I am getting oh so old...hope everyone is having fun shopping!! Ethan

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...ours was fantastic!! Mommy actually made the the turkey...she even touched it raw!! Grandma and Granny helped with a lot of the side dishes and Daddy was also a BIG help in the kitchen. Everyone came to our house it was nice and cozy. I can't wait until next year when I can try some of the food ... now I hope everyone is getting ready for Santa, I have been told that he is coming soon!!~~Ethan

On the road again...

Mommy is making use of her time off...she is taking me everywhere!! We went to Richmond yesterday and Mommy and Papa ran in an 8K race today. They did a great job but I missed it all because I was sleeping. Last night I hungout with my cousin Grayson. He just came back from a trip to Florida and brought me back all kinds of good things. Tomorrow Mommy and Daddy and I leave for Cincinnati Ohio...Daddy has to go for work so we are tagging along...again!! I am going to be a world class traveler by the time I am one. So I hope everyone has a good week and I will talk to you next weekend....Ethan

3 Months old....

I can't believe I am 3 months old today...Mommy says time is going by too fast but I love it because I am learning, doing, and enjoying things new everyday!! Yesterday Mommy and I went and met Papa for lunch. I talked the whole time, I don't even think Mommy got to say anything to Papa. Today Granny came up and played with me...she told me stories and rocked me right to sleep...:) Happy 3 month Birthday to me...Ethan
