15 Months Old...




Our "little bugger" as Auntie Tiffy would call him is GREAT at pushing Mommy's buttons...he must have learned this feat from the master...Dada...

Ethan is Mr. Independent and does things ONLY that He wants to do when he wants to do them for the most part...otherwise we have already started tantrums and wet noodle...Unfortunately for him he is learning about time-outs pretty quickly! (So I think we have hit the terrible two's early...)

If Ethan could live outside he probably would...he loves the outdoors...especially playing in the dirt, eating rocks, and petting all the neighborhood dogs! Ethan's favorite part of the day is being with Dad...he loves to help him get ready in the morning and follow him around the house...all day long he points to photos of Dada, reaches for the phone to call Dada, and looks out the window everytime a car goes by hoping that it is Dada! (Mommy is only the fill in when Dada is not available!)

With his new found freedoms he is quite the explorer...always trying to figure out how things work...oh, no...maybe another engineer in the family! However when he does push Mommy to the limits and beyond he eventually will come over and give me a BIG bear hug to fix things...he sure is manipulative! Ethan has 12 chompers; builds well with blocks & climbs everything that he can!
