Baby Ethan's Birth Day Party! OMG is my baby really ONE???

He was still healing from his cold but in great spirits!

The Little Prince turned ONE on 1/1/06. G-d, I can't believe he is already a year old. Time has flown with him. Its been the best year of my life because I have been so honored to care for Ethan Benjamin's little soul. He is truly a blessing and a miracle.

The hat will be no more, but I love the hat!

The day before Ethan Benjamin's birth day!

oh, the life! Its so exhausting when you have been playing with your maracas! sometimes you just collapse!

I love my little hippy baby!

my score for Ethan at a consignment store! I LOVE wood toys! They don't leach like plastic does!

I posted this pix on my knitting blog (knittingonthedgeinNH.blogspot.com) but love his expression so wanted to post it here too. :) The hat is knit with cashmere yarn and feels so yummy!

Where is my food, mom???

My poor baby was sick over the holidays. His face was so red and he was so tired. Thank G-d we are all better now. :)

my 3 sons!

our method of getting things done!

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!
