Cute Ethan and Halloween Ideas

Ethan is a cutie, with no choice but to wear what we put on him. Yet I think he was kind of having fun in this Hawaiian shirt. My dad added the ukulele because it fit the theme, but Marc also plays ukulele so it was that much cuter.

In this one, he even looks like he's singing. :)

I have been trying hard to come up with something for the three of us for the ward Halloween party, and it is hard! I have been thinking that maybe this Hawaiian thing can double as a Halloween costume idea. The three of us could be tourists with Hawaiian shirts and a camera. I'm not totally sold on it though. Another idea I had was to come as M&M's. We would all wear a solid color and stick M&M's on ourselves. My sister is going with her husband and child as bank robbers, with the baby either being the loot or a policeman.

If you have any grand ideas, please let me know!

Ethan's top 10

Hello all! In the world of blogging, I am definitely a top-notch procrastinator! I love reading everyone's blogs, but I don't post myself.

To catch everyone up, I will do my best to give a good picture of life the past nearly 4 months. I wake up in the morning and feed Ethan. I eat breakfast. I play with Ethan. I feed Ethan. I put Ethan down for a nap. I do housework while he is sleeping. I make dinner for Marc when Ethan has his second nap. I try to squeeze in time with Marc before I go to bed when he is done with homework. I get up with Ethan in the night. I repeat this every day. I keep everyone fed, clothed, and cleaned. Don't get me wrong, I love my life, even when it is routine and a little boring. It just isn't much to blog about.


Ethan of course, is growing so fast! He is becoming so smart and handsome.
Here is a list of the top 10 things that he likes to do:

1. Smile. He does this best for Marc. He loves his Daddy!
2. Play with his toes. They are his favorite toy.
3. Suck on his fingers.
4. Laugh. He really thinks that plastic baggies being crumpled is funny.
5. Listen. He likes all kinds of sounds and stops what he is doing and cocks his head.
6. Babble and gurgle. He makes so many sounds without opening his mouth!
7. Be carried on walks outside. He is completely quiet as he takes everything in.
8. Put things in his mouth. Blankets, toys, my clothes, my hands, etc.
9. Blow Bubbles.
10. Turn on his side. No rolling over yet, but it is only a matter of time.
