Lots of cool things...


Ethan invited me for a special mother's day breakfast this morning at his school. We had fruit and muffins and sat with a couple of Ethan's friends (Ryan and Joshua) and their mom's. Here is a picture of the gifts Ethan made for me for mother's day! It was very sweet and he was so happy to be eating with me at his school.






Here are a few pictures of Ethan with Zoe. Lately, Ethan has really been interested in playing with Zoe. He always gives her toys (partly so she doesn't play with his toys, hahaha) and always talks to her. He tells her not to cry and checks up on her when she is in her crib. The other day, he was in her room and I was getting ready for work when I overheard him say, "Don't cry Zoe, mommy will be here soon". It was so sweet. A few months ago, he didn't pay much attention to her but its all changed recently. He loves to carry her and calls her "Ethan's Zoe".
Even though Ethan loves to carry Zoe, he still drops her when she wiggles or reaches for something.



Here, Ethan is trying to get Zoe out of her car seat. He wanted to carry her too but couldn't unbuckle her seatbelt.



As many of you know, Ethan loves to read. He loves all sorts of books and loves to read them over and over again. In fact, he has memorized many of his books and can pretty much tell you what is happening on each page. Here is Ethan reading a Batman book. We thought this picture was funny because he only has one shoe on. And the shoe is on the wrong foot. But he didn't even notice because he was too busy enjoying his book.



Last night, Zoe tried to crawl for the first time. I'm not sure it is technically 'crawling', its pretty close and we were so excited!

Rememeber I told you that Ethan loves to play volleyball? Well here is a short clip of spiking and bumping the ball. As you can imagine, John was so proud!!!

Let's just hope Ethan doesn't inherit John's habit of spewing expletives on the courts....
