What a nice weekend...

It was finally nice enough for me to go outside!! Daddy had softball games on Saturday and Sunday. We didn't make it to the games on Saturday but we were there on Sunday. I think he did good;). I also made Mommy's day on Sunday...I said Mama for the first time!!! She was so happy...~Ethan

Keep them coming...

I had my first taste of "stars" the other night!! I am getting quite good at picking them up and putting them in my mouth myself. Mommy and Daddy did notice that every time I used my left hand to pick them up. They said I must have got that from my Granny and Grandpa, thanks!! Now Daddy has me on the fast track to being a left handed pitcher...for no other team but the Yankees!!! Speaking of the Yankees...how about A-Rod??? ~Ethan

I love helping Mommy...

I like to help Mom with folding the clothes... they are fun to roll around in and chew on!! Today is Mommy and Daddy's Anniversary...yes four years ago today they got married!! I am sure glad they did because now I am here. ~Ethan

I

Is it Spring yet!?!

I hope everyone had a good Easter. I am still trying to recover from my weekend on the run. We traveled up to Jersey...I got to finally meet the Conklin side of the family on Saturday!! They all were very nice. I also turned 8 months old on Saturday...not so little anymore! On Sunday we went to church and I was full of energy at the beginning but that singing put me right to sleep by the end. We then went to my Great Aunt Barbra's house for dinner. I had my first real sweet potato and loved it...see Mom I don't need baby food!! Yesterday we came home and were hoping to go outside but it is still too cold...I thought they told me it was Spring?? ~Ethan

Look at me...

I just starting pulling myself up and standing on my own!! This is great now I can touch everything...I don't know if Mommy and Daddy like that so much;) ~Ethan

Go Mommy...Go Papa...

This has been a busy few days for us! It started with Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Chris coming to visit on Wednesday and then we headed to Richmond for the weekend. I had fun playing and shopping on Thursday and Friday with Grandma, Grandpa, and Aunt Chris. On Thursday they got to see me at swim class but the water was way too cold...I didn't last long!!This weekend Mommy and Papa ran in a 10K race. They did pretty good for not running too much before hand! I got to cheer them on with Daddy, Granny, Uncle Chris, Aunt Angie, and Grayson! We had a fun weekend but I think we all need some sleep...~Ethan

I'm ready to catch a wave...

Daddy went swimming with me last night. He said I was the best swimmer in the class. He couldn't believe how good I could kick. I can't wait to swim again!! ~Ethan

Ethan's girlfriend...

Today I had my new friend Emma come over to play. We had fun playing together...I think Mommy had more fun having an adult conversation during our play time!! ~Ethan

Happy Birthday Mommy....

Swim Class...

Yesterday was my first day of swim class:). I did not like it at first...yes I cried like the baby I am!! The water was way too cold but after we got in I was swimming like a fish. Just kidding, I never let go of my Mommy. I did have fun and can't wait until we go again. ~Ethan

Kiss Me I'm Irish....

I hope everyone had a great weekend and wore their green on Saturday!! It was cold here so we stayed at home most of the weekend. We watched basketball and between you and me...I hope Mommy beats Daddy in her bracket she filled out:)!! I don't even know or understand what it is but the two of them get excited about it. They told me I could fill out a bracket when I am older!! ~Ethan

Rainy Days are GREAT....

I like this nice weather....

Mommy took me for a walk/jog yesterday. My new stroller can go real fast. I like when the wind blows my hair...I wish it wasn't going to get cold again!! I could get use to these days:) There is nothing better then a full belly, playing and going for a ride...I know I should throw nap time in there too but who needs a nap when I can play, ride and eat!!! (maybe Mommy and Daddy :)) ~ Ethan

I love my DA DA....

New things everyday....

As you can see I am learning and doing new things everyday! I got to ride in a shopping cart this past weekend, while Mommy and Daddy shopped...I am learning to drink out of a sippy cup and I am loving all my veggies but not so much my fruits;). I am getting better and better each day at conquering this crawling thing...pretty soon I will be on the move so watch out!! ~Ethan

Lucky number 7....

I am trying so hard to start moving around by myself...today I am 7 months old!! Mommy can't wait until the weather gets warmer so we can start going outside. Today it is snowing so who knows when that will happen. ~ Ethan

Hello to all...

So I have a new face I like to make....that is sticking out my tongue!! I do it all the time and everyone laughs and smiles it at me... it's great! Mommy and Daddy tell me to put it back in my mouth but I like sticking it out. It makes thinks a lot easier to taste and lick because I have to taste and lick everything before I play with it :) Have a good Friday ~Ethan

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....
