The Beach

We had a really good time at the beach and plus it was nice to get out of the heat! Ethan loved looking all around and playing in the sand. He wasn't too fond of the actual water part of the beach tho. Even tho he loves the pool I think the ocean water was too cold and a little scary for him.

Ethan & Addie

Since Ethan has been scooting around pretty good he has been trying to climb over and on anything he can. Addie just happens to be one of those things. She has been a really good sport, letting Ethan crawl all over her and pull on her. They are gonna be good buddies.

Ethan is really starting to pull himself up on things now. He needs help getting there and staying there, but is really trying to get up. He is getting so big!

July 4th

We had a good fourth. We hung out with friends, walked to the Alamo for dinner, played a game, and walked to a park nearby to watch fireworks. Ethan had a late nap and was up for a little bit of the fireworks. Before the fireworks started there were families setting off their own in the parking lot and Ethan couldn't take his eyes off the pretty colors. When they started setting off the big ones, the ones with loud noises, he cried :(. He ended up falling asleep in my arms and stayed that way until the fireworks were over. Maybe we will try it again next year.

Halloween in June

Aunt Sandy got this cute little monster costume for Ethan for Halloween this year. She tried it on him and he wasn't too sure about it at first, then when he saw himself in the mirror he smiled.

Ethan and the mirror

Ethan loves to play with himself in the mirror. He laughs, plays with his tongue, and makes faces. He is too cute :).

8 months...part 1

There were too many cute ones to pick from, but we limited it because we didn't want to spend a lot of money! Here are the ones we thought were the cutest and purchased:).

Father's Day

how daddy feeds Ethan

This is Kenny helping me out while I was making lunch for us. I'd have to say he needs to work on his aim a little bit :).

Kenny's first trip to the park with Ethan

This was Kenny's first trip to the park with Ethan. It was a chilly day, but a lot of fun. We were able to stay for a while since the clouds were out.
