Ethan's Buddies

Ethan got to hang out with his buddies, Laekin and Micah, last Friday. Ethan is so impressed with how much Laekin can do and follows her around the house. Jen and I had a nice visit and it was a lovely afternoon all around (especially since the kiddos all took their naps!). Here are some cute shots of the kids rocking on the glider.

Kisses!

Ethan was fascinated by Micah in a totally different way. It was if he was trying to figure what this guy was all about.

This is suburbia Orange County?

Every spring there is a field a few blocks away from our house that erupts in wild flowers. It's a limited time only type of thing because, unlike the rest of Rancho, this is not a carefully maintain and groomed field. My friend Kathy and I took our kiddos over to take some pictures. It was quite a bright day so there weren't as many smiles as I was hoping for but the flowers definitely did not disappoint.

Here's and adorable one of Kathy and Savannah:

Little Explorer

I've been meaning to post this for a while...

I was sitting on our kitchen floor cleaning cupboards while my son was roaming. I heard some frustrated grunts coming from behind me and I turned to see Ethan sitting inside a cupboard! I had taken the recycle bin out of the cabinet and he thought it was the perfect place to explore.

It's Party Time! part 2

Here are a few more fun moments from Ethan's party day:

Ethan playing with his Aunt Emy and a fun balloon.

Here is a shot of the card toss game. Note the three little boys in who invited themselves to the party are watching very closely.

Walking with Dad and Grandpa.

Emily Johnson panicked for a few moments after she arrived. I love the "what's wrong with you?" look that Ethan is giving her.Ethan opened some great presents from friends but he was in love with car that his Dave and Tita gave him. It was difficult to get him out of it for the first few days. :)

Don't you love this look of glee on his face? Thank you Dave and Tita!At the end of the day he was sad to leave his car but he still enjoyed his bath. I think he looks like some of my baby pictures here. Kim, what do you think?
What a wonderful day! Happy Birthday Little Man!
