Picnic lunch in new fort

Today Ethan and I had a picnic lunch outside on the new play set. Well, actually, I sat in a chair because I didn't think I'd be able to get back down. Anyway, he had a great time and would slide down the slide and run over to me saying "this is sooo delicious (which he pronounces "dewicious"). It was a lot of fun!

Ethan and his new friend

Today we were outside in the backyard and Ethan found this toad. He had such a great time playing with it! We had to tell him that it was time for the toad to go home because he kept dropping it on the pavement and I think the poor thing was brain damaged.

This past weekend, Scott, Stacy and Maddie came into town for a visit. Actually, Stacy was in a wedding so the whole family came with her and it was so much fun having them here! Ethan and Maddie have a great time together. It's so fun to see them interact with each other. Maddie is the little mother, making sure that my boys have their drinks and they are okay and Ethan is just all boy. I don't know how else to describe him around her. Loud, crazy... you get the point! Anyway, it was so good to have them here. I even got a few pictures with Maddie and she was so interested in baby Hudson. One day this week, she told Stacy that she had baby Hudson in her tummy. I thought that was pretty cute! These are just a few pictures I have from that weekend.

Rod's new project!

Well, we bought a playset and it came in 6 boxes with the heaviest box weighing 175 lbs. Rod was so excited! So, the project is coming along and not quite finished, but here are some pictures of the beginning.

Eating Spagettios

These are just a few pictures of the boys eating spagettios. I had to post them because this is what they normally look like during and after a meal. Jett is especially messy and has so much fun! I don't think Ethan was ever this messy, at least not that I can remember. :)

Sick, but feeling good!

Well, we have been dealing with the flu around here, but you wouldn't notice by the way Jett has been acting. He loves to wear his new fake crocs with his jammies and dance around like nothing is wrong! It's pretty cute! Ethan is finally feeling better, so he's a little more active... which is normal!

Ethan singing the ABC's

UH OH!

I was busy feeding Jett his dinner and Ethan says "Uh Oh, mama, the cheese is gone". I look over and the rest of the cheese that was in the container is now piled on top of Ethan's pasta! It was pretty funny!

Jett is caught!

This is funny! Ethan was calling for me telling me that Jett was in the pantry. I didn't rush because this is a normal thing for my son. Well, when I got there, I saw this picture up above. He had crawled up onto the shelf and was sitting there going through the food. It was hilarious!

It's a Boy!

We found out today that we're having another boy and we are so excited! We took Ethan with us to the ultrasound and I have to share with you how he was during the whole process. I had been telling him starting a few days before that we were going to go to the doctor and see pictures of the baby in my tummy. He understood and when the day finally came, he was so excited. Well, the technician is doing the ultrasound and Ethan starts rubbing my arm and tummy asking me if I am okay and he's saying "be careful mama". I tell him that I'm okay, that it doesn't hurt and she's just taking pictures. So, he would say a few things through out the ultrasound, like how he could see the baby and then he just grabs my hand and holds it. OH, it was the sweetest thing!!! I was just so touched by this, that it made my ultrasound experience even better! I just wanted everyone to know how sweet my big boy is!
