another cute smily pix!  

I couldn't help but take this pix. He just looked so beautiful when I brought him home. i went to the bathroom to grab something and looked in the mirror and saw his cute face and body. They are small for such a short time. :*( 

A HUGE laugh!!!!  

Ethan has begun to really play with toys. Although I gave alot of Mikey's toys away, I did keep a few and Mikey loves playing with them. And yes, this is a laugh! He was in the midst of laughing! :) 

Its been too long since I posted pix. Water bottles are Ethan's favorite toys...don't ask me why...they just are. He can play with a water bottle all day long.  

another Block Party pix!  

Playing around with blocks! 

he's pretty darn happy about it too! next thing you know, he will be walking!!! The first stealth crawl happened on September 19, 2006! Yeh Ethan! Way to go (of course he doesnt have much use for crawling when he is being worn in an Ergo or sling most of the time! :) ).

Moving forward! Ethan is moving forward finally! He has a stealth crawl..not on his knees yet, but he takes his right foot and plants it down and takes his left foot and places that in the air (must be a balance issue for him) and he moves forward!!!! Still photos are difficult to capture it but here it is!  

 

all cleaned up! :) 

checking out the stuff that's available for play (wooden spoons, ice trays, measuring cups, water toys).  

he was tired here, but he really does love his baths!  

Taking his bath in the sink (we cant go very far with all the mango on him).  

getting ready for his bath. we had to clean all the mango off of his arms, lets and head! :) 

attack of mango boy! 

Mango Boy! 

Ethan and I at the Roger Williams Zoo yesterday in Rhode Island. It was a nice peaceful trip. Although he is young, he is very alert and he enjoyed the animals.  

A cute little yawn for the camera. This was my cue to stop taking pix! :)
