Precious Moments

The Joy Along the Trail of Tears

Here is Ethan's cool new blue room with the racing stripe. The ultra sound technician today assured me that the baby is still a boy so we won't regret committing to the blue paint.





the other side of the room... and a sneak peek at Ethan's Tigger costume!




Ethan has been falling asleep in crazy places--it is an adventure every night to go in a few hours after he goes to bed and discover where he drifted off...last night it was in the glider, a few nights before that it was on the floor on this boppy pillow. That freedom to get out of bed is just too tempting I suppose.




And this is Ethan during music time gallopping along to the "cowboy needs a horse" song that Kyle grew up on. The song talks about how a cowboy needs a horse and a hat and some boots and a song, so at one point Ethan was also wearing my crocs along with that hilarious red dinosaur hat. I tell you what, we're getting pretty creative around here to pass all these hours where mom is just supposed to sit. :)



And one more funny story: You know Zach's Sunday night cereal tradition? Well, we don't always do it at our house, but on Sunday night Kyle decided he wanted to have a bowl of cereal as a snack. I have been out of commission and keeping our pantry stocked and being ahead of the grocery game has not been a priority for me, so we're just trying to get by. Anyway, Kyle picked up a box of his first choice and shook it and realized there wasn't even enough in it for a whole bowl, so he picked up another to discover the same thing... pretty soon he had all of these boxes in his arms and was still hoping to find a box with enough cereal for a full bowl. I was laughing so hard I thought I might put myself into labor.
