Almost a year!

It's hard to believe that Ethan is almost a year old! On November 15th last year, Ethan took his first breath in this world and now he is practically running around the house. He's learned how to crawl, walk, roll a ball, pick things up and bang them on the coffee table, drive his parent's crazy, grab things that he is not supposed to, and baby cuss. In case you don't know what baby cussing is, it sounds like gibberish, but it is usually when he is upset at us or really tired. It sounds something like "Bwa, raga, raga, ma, pffff" He frowns and sticks out his bottom lip and sometime kicks his legs and swings his arms. He can be a monster sometimes. He's a terribly cute little monster, though! :) (We've decided that we have said how cute Ethan is several times a day, every day, ever since he was born) I guess we love him or something. ;)

On a side note, we have officially been moved in our house for a full year!! Time has gone by so fast. It's absolutely crazy! It is great to own a home and feel so comfortable here. To be cliche, "There's no place like home!"

Ethan and Cameron have had the flu. On Tuesday, they both started feeling ill. Wednesday night was miserable because Ethan was waking up every 2 hours. Andrew decided to stay home from work to take care of Cameron and Ethan. Ethan was not himself at all! He was super lethargic and would just rest his head on our chests when we held him. Cam and Ethan both had temperatures of 101-102, all Thursday, so we took him to an urgent care. They said that he had the flu (and Cameron as well) and put him on Tamiflu. Thankfully, there has been a huge turnaround for both Cam and Ethan. Ethan is in much better spirits and is smiling and walking again. We can see the energy once again in him. It was a little scary for a little while, but thanks to the Lord for his healing!!!

Well, on a lighter note, here are some pics from the last month or so of our adorable, sick, monster! Enjoy!
