Just Monkeying Around !!!

Just another fun photo session. Ethan is only 7 weeks old tomorrow and we already have hundreds of pictures of him. He probably thinks the camera is actually a part of my face by now.

Don't you just want to plant a big wet one on him too! So cuddly.

Thanks for the fun outfit Auntie Amy !

PS.. Baby Shower Thank Yous are almost done. Who knew having a baby would take up all your time .???

I love to giggle and smile

Ethan just started to smile and make the most wonderful noises. It's hard to capture the true smile on camera, but we did our best . He's just too fast for us.

My sister in law Amy suggested using picnik.com and that's how the first picture came to be. Thanks Amy!


"Mommy your too funny "

6 Weeks Old!

Ethan is now 6 weeks old and cute as ever! He has discovered that he has hands now and puts them in his mouth. If you catch him early in the morning he will give you a big smile

( I love that) . He coos loudly and makes great noises for all to hear. He also doesn't cry for as long as he used too, thank goodness for that :) You will know about it though if he's hungry, tired or needs to be changed. Life is starting to feel like it's back to normal to us. Sleep is no longer deprived ,and we feel comfortable taking him out now and understand his cries. I have even taken Ethan out by myself and I feel pretty comfortable with it too. This baby knows fashion!
He's already pretty animated with his facial expressions. He can look so different from picture to picture.

" I'm ready for my close up mom"

This hat was made by Drew's cousin Brianne. It's getting to be too hot out for it so we thought we would put it on now. This hat was made with much love and talent!

" Why do you always have to take my picture? How embarrassing"

He better get used to it :)

I thought we better take some pictures of myself with Ethan or else he won't believe I'm his mother when he gets older.

Ethan and I watched daddy rake the yard together. Ethan enjoyed being outside.

What a goofy face he's making. I love you my little pumpkin

He Has Risen ! Happy Easter

Happy Easter ! Ethan's 1st Easter , 5 weeks 1 day .

Time is flying bye.Just a little fun Easter photo shoot.
My Easter outfit!
( I should be a model)

Our own little Easter Bunny.

Our little star

I bought this outfit for Ethan when I found out we were having a baby . I thought it was super cute, but apparently Ethan says" cute is for girls "as you can see from the picture below.

He just started the drooly thing tonight. Now I understand why parents think everything their kid does it cute and needs to be documented :)


So big!!!!!!

My Daddy and Me

Ethan is now a month and 2 days old. He sure does love his daddy and his daddy loves him !!! Here are some pictures from the past month to show you the love these two already have for each other.I love you
This is my favorite picture.

This is the dream team, literally they all sleep together , well not Ethan but he checks in on them from time to time

Awhhh fer cute!

Big Yawn for big Ern... Drew's friend Brian calls him that because Ethans initals are E.R.N

Here's daddy cooking mommy dinner with me .

Don't worry ,I'm safely away from the heat.

This is Drew after Ethan stopped crying for over 30 min.

This is his "I'm going a bit crazy" look

Last but not least this is Drew imitating Ethan sleeping with is mouth open :)

We laughed so hard after looking at these pictures. Goes to show that after no sleep anything is funny.
