Crawling for real!

First few strides:

Getting it down!

Nothing is sweeter

Happy Mother's Day!

It was a great one :)

Happy mother's day!

This picture was from yesterday... but I love how happy Ethan was just playing in the grass, examining a dandelion stem.  We decided to get outside and enjoy the great weather
... lake sammamish state park is a Summer favorite of ours.  Happy mother's day to my mom and all the other moms out there!

Ethan discovers...

Curtains!

Ethan's first bloomsday

We had a fun time in Spokane this past weekend. My friend Tracy came too with her darling little girl Sadie and we had a relaxing, yet activity filled weekend. Bloomsday is a totally different experience when you're wielding a stroller. Tracy and I did our best to keep a decent pace but there were so many people to watch out for! So 2 hours later, we finished our 7.5 mile obstacle course (I mean race). Noah finished in 1:05. I was really proud of him since this was the first run he'd ever done. And Ethan and Sadie did so well... lots of smiles and napping. Here's a pic... more to follow.

Ready for the weekend

While it's no fun to be sick or have a tooth coming in, Ethan still manages to sleep and look so peaceful doing it. We're planning a short weekend trip to Spokane for Bloomsday and to see the
grandparents... so there is so much to do before we leave. Laundry and packing are at the top of the list but the fact that the house has to be spotless in case a realtor/prospective buyer want to see the house adds a whole different level of stress on life. We're just hoping and praying that someone will want to buy our place soon. I'm really ready for a yard!

A tooth!

After a few cranky days, we finally felt a tooth trying to cut through Ethan's gums on Saturday! Now we'll see how long it takes to really pop up. :)

I really want to crawl...

I just haven't figured out how!

Sleepy boy.... hmm, disregard that

Ethan's been peacefully sleeping for an hour and a half, which is great for him and great for me! He'll usually only make it an hour at best, but I think it may have something to do with all the excitement of having Grandma and Grandpa Oberst visiting this weekend. (pics to follow)

I've been doing a terrible job of documenting all of Ethan's milestones, stats, and jjjjjjshc zg]hhhhh KG NG

Hmm, well, the little boy is awake now and delightfully trying to type as I type too as you can see from the above lines.

The good news is that we are all happy and healthy here, now if the rain would break for a little bit, we could get outside in the BOB, which Ethan has taken to riding in quite happily.

cgghn ^^^^^^^ , says Ethan.
