Isn't this the weirdest effect? You can almost see a smirk on his face. he really wants to smile, but that silver thing is in front of him and he knows there may be a flash soon, so he dare not act as if he enjoys all this attention! I really believe he will have the intelligence of his father. With both of us as parents, how can he go wrong in the intelligence department! lol! JK!! We do have BIG hopes for him though..the next Einstein!  

I love this pix effect. You will hardly ever find a pix of me without my glasses off. Ethan's dad says thats what he prefers, but I have been wearing glasses forever and am not comfortable with contacts.
Again, we have here the "old man serious" face (referred to in the future as the OMS face!). Gotta love acronyms!
I am the luckiest person in the world to be able to be with my baby and watch him grow each day. How did I get so lucky???  

We hardly ever get our pix taken together. With dad at work most of the time and the older kids at school, its mainly me taking pix of Ethan while we go about our day. I believe Mikey took this pix...Ethan has his "old man serious" face on. Even though I love his smiles and laughs, this face pulls at my mama-strings too.
Of course, he still hasn't gotten to like the camera, which is why we have more "old man serious" faces than laughs and giggles. He does laugh and giggle alot, especially with dad when he comes home from work. Sometimes he will work himself up into a laughing fit and go on and on so hard that his body shakes (I was referring to Ethan, but dad does that too). :)
 

He really does love his feet!!! Using cloth diapers is the best ever...aren't those some cute little diapers??? AND we are saving the environment! You would not believe how inexpensive cloth diapers are and how much money we save! We love them!  

I just cant resist posting a pix of my sleeping baby! Babies are so angelic when they are asleep. Of course, this one is all the time but he is especially beautiful when he sleeps.  

is that not the cutest face ever? Im going to have to get him more baby blue clothes. The blue really does bring out his big blue eyes.  

what a cute pumpkin. he really is becoming so strong...holding his head up very well and he is very observant of everything. See Dad's dimpled chin??? I just can't get over that and love to look at it.  

i have not been able to post in the last week or so and its been killing me!!! Following are some pix from mid to the end of April. Aren't brothers so cute??? This one has Ethan very curious about Mikey's nose! how cute is that??? Ethan is looking more and more like his father each day with the dimpled chin.
