Shiny Dishwasher

Baby on Stool

 


This is the stool I sit on to blog! E is getting so big. He is almost 15 months now.

 

I just love looking at his face!

 

Ethan doesnt suck his thumb much, but when he's teething, he usually keeps his fingers in his mouth. He has gotten teeth so rapidly but we are so lucky to have discovered the power of Amber, which releases resin to reduce pain. Its been a really wonderful thing for us.

 
This walking stage is just too much for me! I am amazed with his progress and so happy that he is becoming more independent. At the same time, its the end of babyhood for him and the beginning of toddlerhood. Its such a conflict for a mother.

more walking!

Ethan walking! Finally! Only for a few minutes, but still.......

 

Two close brothers!

 

The boys have so much fun together! They laugh so much. Mikey is the BEST brother in the world to Ethan!

 

He just can't get enough!!!

 

What is it about this planter that he keeps wanting to get into it? He is absolutely fascinated!!!

 

Taking off down the road!

 

Mom & Ethan! What a beautiful baby!

 

Another one just for fun!

 

Another rare pix of Ethan and Mommy!

 

shoveling it in!

 

This kid LOVES clemintines!!!!! And I'm not kidding! He will eat 2 or 3 a day. He would probably eat more if I let him.

 

Ethan and I at Elmo Live. A friend wanted to go...what can I say???

 

Standing!!!

 

This popcorn popper toy is his favorite! I don't know what its called, but he loves it. Wants to take it everywhere, including to nurse and sleep! lol! He's getting so big. He has taken a few steps solo now and is standing erect much more than crawling now. Crawling is exclusively for getting quickly from one place to the next. Once there, he is walking holding on to anything he can get his hands on. He is growing up so fast!

 

E is so happy being worn on my back! Most days he naps like that! Hugging mommy...how much nicer can a nap be? :)

 

Then we had a snow storm. Oh, the joys of New England!!

 

We had an ice storm. This picture was taken a few days later.

 

what a beautiful smile!!!

 

What a cute picture of Ethan being full on Mommy Milk! :) His eyes are about to fall shut! How cute!

 

One of my favorite expressions while nursing. :)

Breast is Best!!!

 

Mikey and Ethan. Ethan has Donald Trump hair in this pix! lol!
