Pictures Pictures Pictures...

Below are pictures from the previous month of Ethan and how he is developing. Ethan is starting to talk more and more everyday. He is really close to rolling over from his back to his belly. In the last week, Ethan has started to reach out and grab things as well as grabbing at our faces... Every time we talk to Ethan he now smiles and laughs at us. He is getting cooler by the day... Check out the pictures...


Ethan likes to just sit on the 4 wheeler right now because he can't reach the controls... But notice he does have his hands in the right position...
Ethan loves it when you blow on his cheek

Ethan is so observant and he focuses so well when he is playing

Daddy got to do Daddy Daycare the other day because Mommy had to go to a meeting at work. Ethan took a nice long nap after his 6:00am feeding.


Ethan loves to play in his jumper. Just today Leah mentioned that he played in it non-stop for 30 minutes...
This is definitely my favorite picture of Ethan to date...

It's Been a Long Time...

Since Easter, little Ethan has been growing like a mad man. We got a chance to take him to the Zoo. We have been taking him out of the house more and more. Going out to eat with this little man is really fun. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment... These are in chronological order, starting with the Zoo and ending with Mother's Day.


He really is a big deal!!!



Nice little Family Portrait...

He looks so cute when he sleeps...

Some mornings little Ethan and Daddy like to realx in the bed...

Mommy drying the baby off after a bath...

He likes his baths but does not like to get out of the warm water.

Mommy caught this great shot of him sticking his tongue out...

We know when he is hungry because he starts eating his arm.



Great Grandpa Harvey got to see Ethan for the first time. Thank you for coming to see us Uncle Gary, Rue Rue, and Harvey...

He Likes to fall asleep with his "muffler" in but he eventually drops it out...

Here is a proud and beautiful Mommy on a Mother's Day!!!

This Past Week and Easter...

We had a wonderful week this past week as I was off work Thursday and Friday for the Easter holidy. Ethan went to the see Dr. Salem and he checked out perfectly; he is now 9lbs 8oz and 23 inches long. He is growing like a weed... Leah went to see Dr. McCloskey and of course we had to take Ethan to show him off. I'm sure she appreciates seeing her handy work in the weeks following the birth, she said he was so cute. Ethan has been doing great on the homefront, as you can see below, he has made friends with Ziggy and is currently working on a relationship with Lucy and Toby. Ethan is beginning to enjoy his baths and being naked as a jaybird. Of course this weekend was Easter and with Easter comes the Easter bunny. On Saturday Granny and Poppa, Courteney, Chris, and Ella, Great Uncle Gayle and Great Aunt Carmen came over for some Chicken, Roasted Corn on the cob, and some excellent Eggplant Caserole. Aunt Carmen and Uncle Gayle also brought over some excellent Banana pudding. On Sunday Memaw and Grandad came over and cooked some Goulash and some cornbread... It was a wonderful dinner. After dinner Grandad and I went and picked up some Blubell for desert. We watched Marley and Me and it was a good movie. Below are some pictures from this past week for all to enjoy.

Seen below is a naked Ethan happy as ever...
