My New Ride

Check out my new ride! I think I will be driving before I get my license!

Waffles anyone?

I discovered that Ethan is now very aware of different foods in front of him. I had several items ready for breakfast - oatmeal, waffle, peaches and milk. I started feeding him the oatmeal and he ate it as usual until he saw the waffle on the table and pointed to it and said "aahh". He refused his oatmeal and wanted the waffle. I think it is going to be quite challenging to feed him now...it used to be so easy and he ate whatever we fed him. But I guess back then, he didn't have too many choices. Aaahh, choices.....the wonders of food.

Party Time!

Ethan had his first Birthday party this past weekend. We were impressed by how well he did with everyone here and there and just kinda did his own thing following the older kids around. It definitely helps that he can walk! The party was really just for us parents, family and friends, but I think Ethan did enjoy himself.

Watch out, here comes our party animal!





We had way too much food, but I think we had a good combination of different ethnic foods and it was enjoyed by all. I also tried my new cupcake display and it turned out beautiful! I think I will be using it for every party.

Turning ONE!

Today is Ethan's 1st Birthday! I can't believe it's been a year! Where did all the time go? Well, Ethan enjoyed his day. He had cake, a balloon and opened presents. I think he liked the balloon the best. The cake experience was interesting...he did not enjoy it too much. Maybe he's not used to the mess :) Oh well, maybe next year! Happy Birthday Ethan!

Final Pool Update

Well, the pool is finally done. It turned out pretty nice and we're very happy. Now, we just need to wait for the new plants and trees to mature and it will all be complete. We haven't tested the pool yet as the water is still too cold to swim in. With the weather warming up, we'll be in the pool very soon!

Happy Easter!

We took Ethan to his first Easter Egg Hunt at Snedigar Sportsplex where they have their annual Easter Celebration event. I think Ethan did great even though it took a little time for him to get comfortable.

A Day in the Park

Ethan had fun in the park today eventhough it was a little chilly and windy. He enjoyed his first swing and slide. I think we'll be back again soon. He's also walking better now! He will be running soon!!
