Happy Birthday Ethan!!!



Ethan's 3rd Birthday! We can't believe our little man is 3 years old! His party theme was kind of a construction theme. His cake was in the back of a dump truck! Everyone loved it and some even though it was just dirt until they came closer. The cake turned out really good and was super yummy.
The party was a blast and Ethan loved every gift he received! Everytime he opened a new present he was so excited. All of the kids were playing with everything at once. I'm sure tomorrow morning he'll go right downstairs and start playing with his new stuff. Grandma Annette brought one of our party highlights. She brought several of those wax mouths. The picture above is of Madi with the huge lips. We laughed so hard, she could barely keep them in her mouth because she was laughing so hard!
I had to take a picture of the E-man eating his cake. Ever since I baked the cake, that was all he could talk about. We asked what he wanted for supper and in all seriousness he says, "CAKE!" Then we came home from eating and he wanted...CAKE. Then we have his party, sing happy birthday, and serve the cake...he doesn't want any. Ethan of course was too busy with his new toys. So after most people left he finally calmed down enough to enjoy some...CAKE!

Potty Time!



A proud moment happened today, Ethan went potty on the potty chair!!! We put him in underwear tonight and then kept taking him to go potty. The first time he sat there for 45mins and didn't do anything. After dinner we went back and after sitting there briefly he got 5 drops out. Then right before bedtime he sat down and peed like crazy. I was so excited!!! The bottom picture is Ethan putting stars on his potty chart. He was so proud of himself, which is so great! We'll keep you updated.

Starting School

Madison and Mrs. Waldren at the Open House. She was so excited to see Mrs. Waldren again!

Madison after her first day of school. She loved it of course! She's holding her first craft that they did. The picture in the middle is what I see when I pick her up from school. She comes running out yelling Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! because she's so excited after having so much fun in school!
