Say Cheese!!!!

I could just sit and kiss this little boy all day long. He is the happiest little boy ever and he has the most adorable smile. Just wanted to share some new pictures of this super cute little boy.

He has so many different faces. And he is very expressive.

The classic smile.

The slightly confused or fixated on something look.

My all time favorite tongue. He does this a lot. I am not sure if he just found it and loves to play with it or what. But he does this all the time and it is the cutest thing ever.

The, I'm incredibly happy smile and melt your heart smile.

The, mommy, I'm hungry or want to be cuddled in a blanket look. He does suck on his fist every once in awhile. Not a lot, but when he is hungry or needing some lovin.

Eli was shooting his nerf gun the other day and Uncle Justin thought it would be funny to stick one to Ethan's head. We all laughed and he almost started to cry, it was the saddest thing ever. I think he could sense that we were laughing at him and he kind of got his feelings hurt. I was kind of sad.

This is Ethans most favoirtest thing ever. He goes crazy in this thing. I will try really hard to post a video of him in it, but my computer just doesn't love posting videos all that much. I don't know if I am doing something wrong or what, but they just don't ever work. I will try again though and see if I can get one.

Mommy Brag Moment

Yes, this is a 24 piece, very similar colored puzzle that my son ( two and half year old), did entirely by himself. Pulled it out of the box, put it together, and came and told me he was done. What the crazier thing about this is, is this is not his first one. He has actually been doing them for awhile now, probably about three months, but he at first could only do ones that had many characters on them and really drastic different colors. This one has very similar colors on all of the back ground, so really the Timon and Pumba are the only different colors in the picture. I was super impressed with my incredibly smart little boy.

I sure do miss this weather!!!

A few weeks ago we decided to wash the van the good old fashion way. Eli thought this was the greatest thing ever. He had so much fun getting wet with his dad. They did a pretty good job. If it hadn't turned so stinking cold lately, I would have them do it again. I just love this first picture of Ethan. I just cant get over how perfect he is. I mean really. Look at that face, it is just so pure and perfect. And look at that little half smile. Isn't it so precious.

Eli's Inner Self Coming Out....

Family Fun Bowling

So it has been a really long time since just the four of us have went a done anything together. So a few Saturdays ago we had the whole day to just spend with each other. I asked Eli what he would like to do. I told him that we could do pretty much anything. So of course, he wanted to go bowling. Which really was okay cause Matt and I actually really enjoy bowling. It was so much fun. Sad to say, Eli actually beat both of us. Of course he had a little help from the bumpers, but seriously, we really did loose to him. It was crazy. It was a perfect family activity. Thanks Eli for picking such a fun thing for us to go do.

Ethan was even getting in on the action.

Patiently waiting.
He was so excited. He really does love bowling. I could go just to watch his excitement. I love it.

2010 Buddy Walk

A few weeks ago we took Lara to the Down Syndrome Buddy walk. They did a really good job organizing this. There were tons of fun games to play, Lara and Eli both had a blast. We met our parents there and they enjoyed the festivities as well. Lara's dance class PALS also performed at the buddy walk. I will try to see if I can get a video posted on here, but no promises. My computer doesn't always accommodate videos. I don't know if I get them to big or what, but they seldom work for me. So here are just a few pictures of the buddy walk.

Not much to say about that.....

Fun Fall Photo Shoot

I really just can't get enough of pictures. I am not sure why I love them so much, they just make me happy. And my kids are just so photogenic and cute. They are really good little models for me. So there really isn't to much to say about this post. We went up to the canyon a little while back before the weather got all crappy on us and just took a few fun pictures. I was mostly trying to get a few new ones of Ethan, but he still was not quite old enough to sit up or really stand up against something for to long so I didn't really get to many good ones of him, but there are a few.

Ethan loves his daddy sooooooo much!

I did manage to get a few really cutes one's of Lara, which is good cause I need a new one to replace the one I have hanging in my living room.

This is Eli being a super hero.... SOOOOO CUTE!

SO SERIOUS.....

Love this kid. How can you not just want to pinch those cheeks?

A pretty okay one of the two of them. Not the best, but still a pretty good one.

One of my favorites.

Aunt Heather had thrown a handful of leaves at him and he was trying to catch them. I actually think it turned out to be a pretty cute picture.

Lots of Lara, but she loves to model for me and I am happy to oblige her and take pictures of her.

Such a cute little smile.

I sure wish the shadow wasn't in this one. It didn't look this bad when I was taking it. But still a cute one.

I love this picture. Even though I can't see his cute little face. I just love the hands in the pockets. He is so skinny. Does everyone remember how big of a chunk this kid use to be? He has definitely grown into his weight. He is such a handsome little boy.

I wish he was looking at me. This one is a pretty good one of him, he just wasn't really smiling.

SAY CHEESE!!!!!

The best one that I could get of the two of them.

This smile is so sweet. He is just a handsome baby. Just like his brother was.

I just want to kiss him.

Those Cheeks.... I just want to kiss them.

Love this face. It makes me chuckle ever time I see it. Not sure what was going on. I just snapped the picture at the right time.
