Ethan: "If only I could reach up high enough to pull all of those clothes down...that would be so much fun!" 

Here he is pulling himself up! Such a determined little boy! 

He is standing up now...and pulling himself without any help!  

Ethan Benjamin has learned how to add the circles to the tower! What an exciting skill to learn! I'm so proud of him! 

Another picture of my sleeping baby! 

Ethan Benjamin's First Thanksgiving! 

They are so weird! This is my oldest, Max, and his girlfriend, Paige. I don't know how he convinced her to dress like that! 

what a beautiful face! 

Ethan Benjamin loves his wooden tower! and his matching teddy bear! :) 

Cute little clown outfit, huh? I think this is the beginning of a pout....for some reason.  

and then, the most beautiful sight to a mommy! a sleeping baby!  

then we get the lower lip going...getting a bit cranky! 

playing, playing, playing....until he can't play anymore! 

Houston, we have a YAWN! 

again, at 1 am...just to make things fun!  

while talking to a friend in California at 1am, here is what Ethan Benjamin loves to do!  

2 little brothers hanging out together! Mikey is the best biggest brother there is! 

what a face, huh? I think he was laughing, but now I can't remember for sure. 

Everyone else is asleep except the baby! Sound familiar to anyone?  

Can you read his book. "No Need to Count Sheep, We Co-Sleep".  

Just wanted to post a pix of Ethan with his UTN baby in matching pj's! How cute, huh?  

See how easy it is for him to crawl from my bed, to the crib mattress, then to the floor? I just want him to learn not to crawl head first (I worry about him hurting his neck). 

I am so excited! I finally moved the mattresses of my bed onto the floor. We co-sleep and I always get worried that Ethan will fall out of bed, since my bed was so high off the ground and he has been so squirmy lately. So, I moved my mattresses onto the floor and then put his crib mattress beside mine. He never slept in the crib that I had side-carred beside my bed anyway. I am trying to teach him to get off of my bed feet first, then get off his crib mattress to the floor feet first too. When he has learned this, I will the remove the crib mattress. He is such a smart little guy. He has already crawled from the floor to his crib mattress, then onto my bed. He is so strong too. He can move FAST!!!!  

now we have to clean up! but Ethan Benjamin loves bathing after dinner!!!  

I know this is alot of pix from one event but these just get better and better! Daddy was over for dinner, so Ethan Benjamin was being particularly funny!
