Merry Christmas!!!

Note, cookies, & milk for Santa!

Reading 'The Night Before Christmas' on the night before Christmas :)

Mom Mom says, "Hey Ethan stand in front of the tree so I can get your a picture in your Christmas PJs"

Ethan says, "But I am dinosaur Mom"

OK dinosaur picture it is!

We spent Christmas Eve over at our friend David & Patsy. Ethan is friends with their grandson, John Parker. The boys were happy just playing with the boxes the toys came in.

We went to see Santa and Christmas lights at the Holiday Spectalur near our home. It is probably one of the most classy southern ;) experiences we have during our Alabama Christmas.

Ali trying to fit into her winter coat, she was freezing.

Santa smelled and talked funny. We explained to Ethan how the real Santa was busy getting ready for Christmas.

Christmas at Ethan's School

Ethan did so good in the school performance. He was trying so hard to get closer to that microphone.

Ethan was waiting for patiently for his turn on stage. He is in such a fun, cute class.

Ethan's teachers tell me his is always the last kid eating. This was no exception at the class party.

Ethan loves story time and I was so excited to see him loving it at school too.

Gymnastics!

Ethan has been goingto gymnastics once a week and loves it! One of his buddies, John Parker, had his 2nd Birthday party @ the gym so it was a good opportunity to get some pics of Ethan doing his thing. After the 1st of the year Ethan is moving up to big kid class!

Our Crazy Big Brother!

Ethan William being Ethan William!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

Mike got me a nice new DSLR camera so I took some pictures :) It is the best thing ever! I am still figuring it out but so happy we got it. It is going to be so fun taking good quality pics of the boys.

Ethan's First School Performance - Thanksgiving Feast

Ethan had his first school performance on Friday. The whole class froze in front of the big audience and forgot the words they all were all still super cute!!! We absolutely loved it.

Baby Evan Belly Pics! (more to come)

October 2010... One more update

We made a Haunted Ginger Bread House! Ok I made a Haunted Ginger Bread House because I am a control freak and the boys just let me do what I want.

Ethan has his first school pictures. He is so handsome!

We went to the pumpkin patch with his class. He got a sunflower and a pumpkin.

He is starting to have some pretty bad outbreaks of his HSP but he is going to be just fine. Once his immune system builds back up they are going to do the chemo treatment again.

I made this awesome sign for our guest room :)
