OUCH!

Ethan is definitely a boy!! I read about everyone's kids that won't dive into anything with their hands because they need a utensil! NOT my boy! He loves to dive right in and use his hands. Well I guess you could say he also things he's superman because he likes to jump or dive off of things....like the back step outside. Sunday evening when we had everyone over for dinner after the blessing, some adults were sitting around the table playing a card game and it got hot so they opened the door when they put the dog out and left it open. Ethan saw that it was open and took off out there and I followed but I didn't catch him before he proceeded to try to walk but tumbled to the pavement skinning his nose and scraping his forehead. I felt bad and Roger wasn't too happy, but he's alright and didn't cry very long. I'm just relieved he didn't get a concussion. That's MY boy for you!! I got this picture of him Monday morning and I thought it was a perfect face! I enjoy having a boy first because he's so fun...and I'm pretty sure Aliana is going to be a miss priss, but I guess only time will tell.

My Crazy Fun Son!

Roger has been so good about grabbing the camera and capturing Ethan when he's doing funny things. My mom has introduced him the massage chair and showed him how to turn it on so he likes to climb up in it and sit there and read. It's too cute!!

Ethan also likes to climb into things. He is always diving into his toy bucket head first, but here he is just trying to get into the basket!!



Picking his nose!! EWWWWWWWW
He likes to wear his daddy's hats. He always puts them on normal and then ends up pulling it over his face and walking around with it like that so he ends up falling down like in the last picture!


Besides all of the crazy funny things Ethan does he has started to do a little bit of signing. His favorite is milk. If I say milk he signs and then runs to the kitchen looking for his cup. Roger also taught him how to blow kisses. He does high fives and knuckles as well as wave buh-bye. He's growing up so fast and I can hardly stand it!

Aliana's Blessing Day

Aliana got blessed yesterday. Roger did a wonderful job. We are so lucky that so many family members got to be a part of it. I was a little disappointed though that everyone took off right after because I wanted to get a picture of everyone that was there. This is our first family picture of us four together!! Ethan had a hard time staying still.
I love my sweet girl. The blessing dress she wore is actually the same one I wore to get blessed.

Fun Times with Taya!

Nana and Ethan.
Uncle Ben with Ethan and Taya!
Ethan would throw the ball to Taya but she wouldn't ever get it so he'd go after it again. I'm not sure what he is holding in this picture which actually kind of scares me!!

Cute little Taya....

Red is my FAVORITE color..

And Aliana looks so beautiful in it!! It goes so well with her skin color. I had to get some pictures of her in this outfit since I think she looks adorable!

Lunar Eclipse

There was a lunar eclipse last night and mom got this cool picture of it!

Friends

Amber Riner brought over her daugher Taya who is only three weeks younger to play and they had so much fun. The cutest part I didn't get on the camera, but when she first came in he went up and put his arm around her. It was super cute!!

Ethan being a boy and poking at her earrings. I enjoyed talking with Amber while our kids played. Roger did too because he didn't complain and it was his birthday so I thought he'd want to be doing something else but he enjoyed just being with the kids!! We hope Taya comes to play again soon!
