Disneyland, Easter, Makeup, Water and Vacuums

Its been a little while, so we decided to post a whole lot of pics in an effort to catch up. Hopefully you'll be able to see the many sides of Ethan (mostly his goofy side) and get a glimpse into what we get to enjoy everyday.
Ethan got these glasses at a friends birthday party and he loves to wear them all day, and he enjoys screaming into our mouths.
Ethan loves to go "night-night" and he got his friend Noah to join him sleeping in his play pool. This pool has never actually had water in it, but Ethan loves it just the same.

We got Ethan this cute little soccer outfit and I asked him to pose and show off his outfit and this is what we got. This outfit is appropriate for him, because he loves to get Cory's soccer ball out and kick it for long periods of time.

Much to Ethan's delight we got a new vacuum and he had to be the first to use it, hopefully this cleaning nature sticks around for at least the next 15-20 years.

The X-Men: Wolverine world premiere was held at Cory's mall last Monday and they passed out Wolverine claws to everyone at the mall, here's Ethan demonstrating his Wolverine nature, red eyes and all.
Make-up and Lotion are two of Ethan's favorite things to get into as evidenced by the following pictures.


If you look above his right eye you can see that he applied eye-liner on himself.
In addition to make-up and lotion Ethan loves to straighten his hair.
If you ever tell Ethan you're tired he will help you out by rubbing your eyes for you.

Blackmail picture for the ladies that will be coming around.

SUCKERS!!!
One morning we were having a hard time getting out of bed and we heard Ethan rummaging around in the diaper bag saying "pick one" apparently it was too difficult to pick just one so he had all three.
This is one of those big suckers you get in Disneyland, the kid was in heaven (at least for the 2 minutes it took him to eat it.)

DISNEYLAND
Kristen's sister Kelly came down for her Spring Break so the three of them took a couple of days to go to Disneyland and Ethan loved every minute of it. He had to be a part of the entire day from 9:30am to 10:30pm, without even taking a nap.
He tried and tried, I guess he's not the next Arthur, by the look on his face you can tell he really wanted that sword though.
Ethan loves to go on anything that spins around in circles, as soon as the merry-go-round stopped he pointed to a different horse and said "that one, again" Unlike his Uncle Parker Ethan was not in the least bit afraid of the characters in the park, he was so excited to see "Mickeys" and "Goofys" he was even brave enough to give Mickey a kiss.

Chillin' on Plutos bed in Toontown.


"Hello, Hello"
Ethan loved Toontown and seeing all of the houses and being able to drive the cars and push all of the buttons.

Ethan loves his sunglasses, here he is showing off his cool look, if you look closely you can see his mohawk to complete the look.
The day was drawing to a close, you can see how tired out little Peter Pan was.
On the way out of the park he finally gave in and crashed, to give you an idea of how tired he was he hasn't fallen asleep out of his crib or in the car in almost a year.


A rare moment of Ethan sleeping and cuddling

Cory was taking a before picture for his workout program and Ethan wanted in on the action, however hes demonstrating the "before I eat my crackers" look.

EASTER
Despite the lack of excitement, he was pretty stylin" in this years Easter outfit.

A demonstration of the sticker from his new Seaseme Street coloring book

The Easter (bucket) basket

The new "Tigger and Pooh Musical" was a big hit, way to go Easter Bunny!
Jello is much better to play with than actually eat.

We tried out a water cooler for a weekend and because of what you see right here we decided not to keep it. Ethan loved to fill up water bottles, or cups or frying pans with water and then drink from them.
Yes, there is water in that pan that he filled up and carefully carried out to the living room and then drank from. We're not sure where he gets these ideas from.
Apparently Tigger needs to be a soccer player

One day we noticed that Ethan wasn't making any noise, not usually a good sign, when we went into his room we found him in the rocking chair reading his scrippers (scriptures for those of you that don't speak Ethan), he stayed in the rocking chair for 15 minutes reading his scrippers and other books.
There are few things more fun than rolling up the rug and practicing your balance-beam skills.



Never too young to start texting your peeps

Inspiring workout video


This is evidence that it is never too young to start working out. Funny enough this has become a routine for Ethan and Cory, when Cory works out Ethan loves to join, either by working out or by adding extra weight for daddy.

Christmas and New Year!

Kristen's parents and sister came down for Christmas this year. Ethan has been talking a lot and when trying to say Grandma and Grandpa he ended up saying "Maca" and "Paca" the name has kind of stuck. We had a great time with the family and Ethan really enjoyed opening his presents.



Ehan opening a present from Maca and Paca


One evening when Cory was working late Ethan climbed up on the couch saying "watch, watch." He then took the remote to the tv turned it on and pulled the blanket up around him so he could get comfy.

Ethan was able to get a hold of a bag of marshmellows where he then took them to the couch to devour.


Cory broke his a hand over Thanksgiving and told Ethan he had an "owie". Now and time Ethan has anything on his hand he calls it an "howie". So this is a pic of Cory and Ethan with their "howies".





Ethan went and saw Santa. The whole time we were there he kept pointing and saying "Santa, Santa". I was just really happy that he didn't freak out when we sat him on Santa's lap.



Kristen and some of her friends went to see the lights at the Temple in Mesa. This is a pic of Ethan and Grace they are about to kiss. Ah ture love.






Ethan got and Elmo for Christmas and was so excited. He has a hard time saying Elmo and instead calls him Melmo. which is just as cute.
