New Tricks

I love how Ethan's personality is starting to show more and more each day. His latest trick is peek-a-boo. I sit him up after finishing his bottle and immediately he will grab the burp cloth and put it over his head. Doesn't matter if it is 2:00am in the morning or when the sun is out. He is always ready to play. The thing that makes me laugh is that he often won't even cover his face with the cloth, but he won't look at you, therefore he is hiding. What a nut!

I know that I mentioned that he gives lots of kisses. Mostly to me (Yah!), some to daddy. He is pretty sneaky about these kisses. I will ask him for a kiss and without looking at me, he will lean forward and plant one on me. He has crazy peripheral vision.

The other day he started to pull up on the table. One minute he was just on the floor and the next a head pops up. He was so proud. It was like a jack in the box.

In other news, we are still getting moved in. I need an interior decorator though. Can't seem to figure out where everything goes, especially since I don't want our new home to look just like our old one did. Jim is so amazing. He is juggling about 4 huge things right now and still getting lots done. He keeps worrying that he is behind, but I am just floored by all he does. I keep thinking how amazing it is that he is handy. I have been thinking of what I can do to lighten his load and there is not much I can help with since I don't like power tools. Makes me grateful that his dad taught him how to work and fix things. Thanks Grandpa.

We have been having amazing weather, so I have went on a few walks with Ethan. He has cried while we were out. The second time out, I stopped and explained to him what we were doing and how we are in nature with trees and wind and birds. He was fine after that. I sometimes forget how new everything is to him. I am always amazed by how much he understands and how better life goes if I explain what is happening to him first. Sorry no pics, maybe next time.
