Happy Birthday, Ethan!

Tomorrow is Ethan's 2nd Birthday! It's hard to believe that our little guy is already two! It's so wonderful to watch him grow and learn more every day. To think that when he was born we didn't know what the future would hold for him or if he would make it at all! Chad and I are so grateful.

We had a Staton family party last weekend, with plans to travel to Jackson for a Brasher family get-together this weekend. But, between L.K. being sick and in the hospital last week and Ethan being sick ALL week this week, we opted to postpone the party to next weekend and celebrate at home instead.

Here are some pictures from his Yo Gabba Gabba Birthday party last weekend.

We're back!

Wow! It's been just a little while since my last post (ha!), but I hope to do better now that I'm off for the summer. Well, let's see...what's new? Ethan has been in day care for the past couple of months and is doing just great! He loves school, or "cool" as he calls it. Aside from the every-other-week virus that the little ones pass around the class, he seems to be adjusting to big boy life. Last week, he got a short break from day care to go to spend the week with mommy and to attend Kindermusik, which he absolutely LOVED! For those of you in the Meridian area, I would highly recommend it. Go to www.musicwithjulie.com for more info. I'll post pics later. I hear a little bear waking up!

Snow Day!

Ethan's First Birthday Parties

Ethan's first birthday was so special the he had not one but TWO parties! His first first birthday party was last weekend in Brandon at Aunt Ashley and Uncle Billy's house. All of Chad's family was there, and it was a blast! Ethan was a little overwhelmed by the time we got to the cake. He only ended up taking one bite from his adorable little dig-in cake, and out of all the cameras on him, nobody got a picture of it! But he ate plenty of Gigi's homemade ice cream! On Ethan's (and his PawPaw's) birthday, we had a party at home with my family. I made him a frog cake - he loves frogs! - and he went for one of the eyeballs right away.
We have had a great time the last few weeks, and it has reminded us of just how blessed we are to have such a healthy baby boy.
