Organize

Ethan has many toys and I have tried multiple ways to keep them somewhat organized, but lately I have felt like we needed a better system, so I have invested in this.

So far Ethan has been really great at putting his toys in the right bins. I think I will help him by labeling them with words and pictures. I know that the excitement will probably wear off about how "fun" it is to put away your toys, but I sure hope it doesn't.

Buzz Lightyear to Preschool

Today was wear your costume to school day. Ethan was so excited to wear his Buzz Lighyear costume and to show all of his friends.

Ethan looked so cute in his costume and many of the little kids were so excited to see a Buzz Lightyear. One little boy kept touching the wings and belt of Ethan's costume and saying how cool they were. If you know Ethan this makes him very uncomfortable and he immediately froze and kept giving me a worried look. So I distracted them by taking a picture.

All the kids were so cute and I can't wait to see all the neighborhood kids in their costumes this weekend.

Sorry Ethan is always looking away in these pictures, but he was a little distracted by all the things going on around him.

Pumpkin Man

Ethan's second field trip was to the Pumpkin Man. I was not able to go with him, but he had a great time with his friend Cole and his Mom. Ethan was able to get a pumpkin and he was very excited to show his Mommy and Daddy when we returned home from work.


It has been fun to see him learning about letters, colors, shapes, and numbers while also having a great time in school.

He is growing up so fast, boy time sure does fly when you're having fun.

Sick Boys

Ethan and Landon have both had the flu this weekend, and boy it has not been fun. It all started last night when we were heading home from Salt Lake and Ethan threw up in the car four times. Thank goodness Wendy was with me to help catch the chunks.


Even though Ethan was so sick he kept thanking me for washing his blankie, he is so sweet, I love that kid.

We had to take a couple of baths also, but the boys seemed to really enjoy this part.


We were up all night and I think I got only about an hour and a half of sleep. I was so exhausted that I had a little melt down this morning while adding my 4th load of laundry to the washing machine. The boys are doing a lot better now, and so am I. It is amazing what a shower can do for you.

I am glad that I don't have to work until Tuesday, and that Aaron will be back tomorrow too. I knew something bad would happen when he was gone, it always does. Come home soon my love.

Fish Farm

On Ethan's first field trip he went to the fish farm. They had just learned about fish in his class and he was very excited to go.


He was all smiles before heading out to the fish farm.

Ethan with his fish, he didn't want to hold it. He kept saying that it was slimy.


Ethan and his class made fish puppets to take home. He loved cutting his puppet with scissors. He really loves being with his class mates and asks to see them all the time.


My little boy was so exhausted that he fell asleep instantly in the car on the way home.
