Ethan's Birthday!


I can't believe my Baby is One! We kept his birthday pretty low-key. We invited some family for cake and ice cream. Our nick-name for Ethan is Ethan-bug, it just fits him, it always has. So, for his birthday I found an inch-worm cake how-to on Betty Crocker, but I decided a catepillar would be better- turned out pretty good for a first timer! Ethan was just trying to figure out what was going on the whole time- I think he was a little over whelmed. It was fun though. Sure love my little Mother's Day present!













Grammy and the kid'lins!







At the end of April my Mom came up for Pat's graduation! I know, I know- I should have taken pictures, but we were running late, I couldn't remember where I put my camera, and theres no way I could have carried one more thing anyway!



Ethan








I just adore this little guy! He fits right into our family- which means he is completely full of personality! He says: Da, Mom, Dada (Candra), Titi (Malachi), and BA! (Brittney) He also gets the biggest kick out of crawling around saying "mom, mom, mom..." He laughs when I say "What?" He laughs all the time. He loves his family SO MUCH! When ever the girls come home from school or Malachi wakes up from his nap and when Ty walks in the door, Ethan gets super excited and has to get on over to them as fast as he can and give them loves! He and Malachi are allready such good friends for at least four months now I'll just find the two of them playing so cute in Malachi's room, wouldn't have thought at this age the two of them would have so much fun with each other, but they sure do! Malachi gets the biggest kick out of how much Ethan loves him. Each time Ethan wants to give Malachi loves, Malachi laughs and then says "ooohhh" while Ethan hugs him- it completely melts my heart!


Cousins!











These boys really got to be friends! They all had so much fun together!




Crazy Hair Day at School!

Candra wanted "Puppy Ears"



Brittney just wanted Crazy- so fits her personality!

Hollie, Mackenzie (Hollie's Sister) and I all went to a nearby Easter Egg Hunt, it was FREEZING!!! But because it was so cold there was not a big turnout and it was over pretty quick!



These boys are really good friends! We sure miss you Jefferson!
















Daddy Daughter Dance




The school had a Daddy Daughter Dance, Ty took the girls and then took them to get a rootbeer float afterwards! They had SSOOO much fun dancing the night away! When they got home the girls faces were still glowing! Ty had fun too (as soon as I was done taking pictures!)

Dr Suess Day!

For Dr. Suess Day (actually week) at school the girls wanted Green Eggs and Ham for breakfast- this is also the morning Ethan BROKE my Camera lens- well, can a baby really be blamed?! NO! but still, I was pretty sad that little mister velcro fingers grabbed dropped and broke my camera! But the green Eggs and ham (and green pancakes) were a big success!


Christmas '09





































We went to Idaho for Christmas! We had to go very last minute because Ty was working, but Aros and Lana let us stay at their home Christmas Eve- good thing Santa is magic, or he may not have found us! Thanks Aros, Lana, Jett, Emry and Alea! Love you guys and miss you so much!
