Food Rocks!

Ethan is finally starting to love food. It took a while for him to figure out what to do with it, but now he can't seem to get enough. Even though he has proven to be a messy eater (no matter what I try) he continues to chow down on the good stuff. Sometimes instead of eating the food he prefers to pull it out of his mouth in an effort to investigate what I put in his mouth. He then paints a self portrait on himself or the highchair. I'm glad I have patience, because if I didn't I wouldn't find any humor in his mess!

We are happy to say Ethan pulled through his surgery well earlier this month. He is healing wonderfully. Ethan is back to enjoying all that life has to offer him right now.

Parade and Fireworks

Ethan enjoyed his first 4th of July celebration, well mostly. The parade went well until the modern day fire trucks came roaring down the street with sirens blarring. He made it through the guns and old fashion trucks, but not the modern ones. After that he did great until he got tired and had to go take a nap in his stroller. He seemed to like watching all the activity streaming by on the street. That evening we went to see fireworks too. He only cried during the first few but then he got comfortable on my chest and watched the remainder of the 15 minute show. He cried a little at the end too when things got excessively loud again. We have a few pictures from this weekend in our July photos. We also upload a ton more to June. Enjoy our little Ethan!
