Hanging Out

Ethan is starting to have fun with his exercise mat now that he can reach up and touch the toys!

help!

Ethan getting ready for his first walk outside with Zero. I put him in this snowsuit thing and he barely fit in his car seat. I couldn't even get the straps fastened. He was a little toasty when we got home, but I didn't want him to get cold!

"I vant to PUMP you UP"

Early signs of a body builder?

Fun with Ducky

Play date continued . . .

Play date with Jake

Ethan and I went to visit Cheryl and Jake yesterday. Jake was facinated by Ethan, in the bottom photo he is trying to show Ethan how easy it is to push yourself up.

Bundle of Boy

I thought it would be a good idea to put Ethan in this snow outfit for our outing today. He barely fit in the car seat with it on. When we were in Meijer I think he started to overheat so I had to unzip him. He looked really cute, but probably the only time he will wear this.

Big Foot

He has cute feet- big feet like his mother. At least he's a boy and won't be embarassed later on in life when he has to tell the bowling alley attendent his shoe size.

Photo Shoot

Ethan and I had a photo shoot today. I'm trying to get some good pictures for his birth anouncement- he doesn't sit still very well!

Alexandra and Ethan

Ethan and I go over to my cousin's house for a change of scenery and to visit, it's nice to get out- although the past few weeks the weather was trying to make it difficult!

Good Morning

In Nonna's Tub

Ethan took a bath with me at nonna's the other night. He loves the water and had a great time.

Hello Again

Ethan tagged along to my six week appointment with my ob. He was a little fussy so we decided to keep him in the car seat for the photo. Dr. Florido delivered Ethan so it was nice that they got a chance to catch up!

Target here we come!

Today Ethan and I went to Target by ourselves! I was a little nervous that he would wake up in the store, realize he's hungry and start screaming at the top of his lungs. He didn't, he slept the entire time. In this picture we are about to leave, he can hardly contain himself.

Dad and Ethan

Chiara wanted a picture with one of us holding Ethan so she could see how much he has grown. Here Ethan is hanging out with Jim before he leave for work.

Fatty in the Bath

Ethan really loves bath time. He gets really relaxed and just watches us as we wash him. Sometimes he gets so relaxed, he pees straight up in the air, which is why the orange wash cloth is placed where it is! He even gave us a smile during his bath yesterday.

Almost Smiles

Ethan smiles quite a bit, but I can't tell if it's just reflexes or if he is smiling at me. Here are a few of his smiles caught with the camera. On a side note, he just loves that bouncer, it really is a neglecto-matic, as Chiara would say!

I am getting very, very angry!

Ethan ready to explode. He gets upset when it is almost time to eat and I'm not working as fast as he would like.

One Month Old

Some pictures of Ethan yesterday.
