whew....

I am soooo behind on blog posts, I could sit in this chair for hours with updates and photos. I couldn't be happier to have access to the internet once again! We are getting settled into our rental home. I think David and I are a little surprised at how much we miss our townhome. I never knew how much time I spent in the kitchen and miss it dearly (along with Ethan's nursery). However, I love the new location of the rental home, fireplace, and swing on the screened porch! I think the easiest to catch up with what has been happening is with photos....so here goes.

Colt Fans on Superbowl Sunday!!!!

Valentines Day! I always get David the silliest balloon I could find. This year it was the underware monkey! I thought it was hiliarious I found a balloon that had the same boxers I bought him a few years back. I had to of course get Ethan a balloon too. I chose the bear, because we all know I call him baby bear.

Ethan's backwards scoot kept getting him stuck under this chair until it was finally loaded onto the moving truck! Just in time for a new trick to develop! (more to come on crawling later)

Someone loves his Tonka Truck "Chuck!" Ethan loves to roll it around while making noises! My baby is turning into a little boy at 8 Months old.

Ethan loves to help his Nana do his laundry!!! He is always laughing when Nana's around.

When I work during the week, my mom keeps Ethan along with a little boy named Zane. I actually watched Zane for a few hours last week. I loved watching Ethan and Zane play together! Zane just turned 4 and Ethan loves follow what Zane is doing.

Eating! We spend a lot of time in our highchair now! Ethan is starting to eat more and more fingerfoods. Just this past weekend, he ate his very first "off my plate" food: pancakes! I gave him just the pancake without syrup and he loved it!!! I guess Pancake Saturday's have just begun. Looking at the first picture I can't believe how long Ethan is compared to when I put in his highchair for the first time when he was 4 months old.

This past weekend we had some nice weather. We decided to spend a little time outside! Ethan loves his new porch swing!
