Hmmm - maybe I can grab the tail?

Ethan has been slowly realizing that there are two other things that live in our house - and that they are furry, soft and fast! And while Ethan loves the cats and smiles every time he sees them, the cats...well, the cats are still working on their love for this newfound noise maker - whom we call Ethan.

Below, Ethan was trying to sneak up on Mylo but Mylo's "kid radar" picked him up before Ethan could plan his attack...

BUSTED!

Play time with mommy!

Here are some random shots of our sweet little boy...he was being silly, so I thought to take a couple pics...

Who knew that wooden spoons could be so fun to play with? We also really enjoy tupperware, water bottles - really anything that can be chewed on...

I See You!

We recently had to lower Ethan's crib down because he is getting where he can lift himself a bit and we didn't want him testing the laws of gravity when it comes to getting out of his crib. But with this change in altitude, Ethan's bumpers were blocking his view to the door, so he couldn't see us when we came in...to which he quickly remedied that situation and was super proud of his discovery that you can squish the bumpers and Ta-Daaaaaa - I SEE YOU!!!

Time with the Great Grandparents

July was a super busy time for our little family as we headed up the eastern side of the U.S. to visit with both sides of our family. We had the great priveledge of introducing Ethan (who was seven months old at the time) to his great grandparents, and below are some pictures of that.

This picture is of the great grandkids on Dean's side of the family sitting with Dean's grandma and grandpa. From left to right is our niece Kayley, nephew Samuel, little Ethan sitting in the lap of his great grandma Musser and then great grandpa Musser.

In case you didn't know, Ethan's middle name is Paul and comes from this wonderful man, great grandpa Paul Musser.


Ethan hamming it up with great grandma Musser.




While up North, we were able to go up to Connecticut to be there for my grandma's 90th birthday party. Here Ethan is loving on his great grandma Stefanowicz. He loved being held by her, even though his face looks a little weird in this picture.

Ethan's reaction after nap time

So, we really wish Ethan were a bit happier of a baby...I mean, going into THIS after nap time? Such a trying thing.... Ok, so really he is a pretty happy little guy and gets SO excited when we come in to get him up from his naps...it's like, "Oh goody! You found me!" Just makes us love him more and more...hope you enjoy!
