Midnight moonlight shining through the curtain lace
Paints a perfect picture on your perfect face

One sweet angel sleepin’ in my arms
You are the promise I knew God would keep
You are the gift that makes my world complete

And you’ll never know how much I love you
But I’ll keep on tellin’ you my whole life through


Now I believe in miracles and you’re the reason why
So dream on while I sing you, my angels lullaby

Labor Day Weekend - Lake Wenatchee

Over Labor Day weekend we went up to the Bath Family's cabin, near Lake Wenatchee. Here are some pictures from that fun day!

5 months old today!

Our boy is 5 months old today - I can not believe it! He's growing soo dang fast.

Not much going on these past few weeks. Trying to get my back to a place where I feel comfortable again. I have a feeling - until Ethan is older, it might be awhile.

Other than that just gearing up for Grandma Shirley's visit next week! Yeah!

I have tons of new pictures to add to the posts....so Enjoy!

Horrible Week for Mommy!

Well, the title of today's post doesn't even begin to tell you how bad my week has been. To start off - I caught Tom and Ethan's cold. Probably worse than both of them combined, in my opinion =) But we went to the grocery store on Monday and as I reached and twisted for that loaf of bread *SNAP* went something in my lower back.
The pain got progressively worse as the day went on and by Tuesday - I could not move. I told Tom...this pain is so bad, makes the c-section recovery feel like a walk in the park. It hurt like a *%#&^@( *% ^#@&)*(@ <------ insert ALL expletives here!
So Tom stayed home from work Tuesday and Wednesday as I couldn't even hold Ethan. So, Daddy was on 24 hour duty. I still can't lift Ethan...which breaks my heart. I sure missed him, and Tom while I was flat out.
Today I feel better - not 100% - but I can at least feed and hold Ethan now. I still can't lift him but I am improving. Needless to say that cold I had...went away =)

I still have pictures to post - I will get to those probably this weekend. Our little boy is growing up so dang fast. He now holds on to your shoulder or wraps his arms around your neck while you are carrying him. He's very interested in what you are eating now - and gets mad if you don't *share*. I think I might try the cereal again next week and see how he does.
He seems to be sleeping better at night....but I haven't been on night duty in a few days, so not really sure. But he is just the sweetest baby to be around - and I'm not just saying that =) He is really easy going and takes most everything in stride and just rolls with it....
Well, I'm gonna close for now as Ethan is napping and I'd like to get a few more things done before he wakes up. I haven't been able to do anything around the house and daddy's priority ahs been Ethan - so the house needs a little attention.
Hope everyone is doing well...the weather is about to take a turn around here - Thank Goodness! I'm ready for fall and winter. TTFN!

Happy GrandParents Day!!!

Today is Grandparents day - for those of you who keep track =)

Ethan is just getting over his first cold. I'm sure he caught it from daddy - as now mommy has caught it from Ethan! It's so hard to watch him with the snuffy/runny nose - as he can't *blow* or sniffle....so he threw up a couple times but it was all mucus (sorry....TMI!) I think he was gagging. At least he got rid of it.

The doctor's office told us to have him sleep in his car seat in his crib so that the mucus runs down....and doesn't run into his lungs. The first day or so he didn't have an appetite which they were a little concerned about him getting dehydrated - but that didn't last long. He's been eating fine - just runny nose and some coughing.

We were supposed to go the Seahawks game today - but because he wasn't feeling well, daddy went with a friend - and mommy and Ethan stayed home. Good thing though - now I don't feel good =(
The Seahawks game should be alot of fun - whether they win or lose - as this is the first home game of the season...so a lot of extra things going on and hopefully some good giveaways...which I have already put dibs on =) Hopefully, we'll be able to get to another one this year - but Grandma Jane doesn't give those tickets away too easily.

Mommy and Ethan went to a Baby Shower yesterday - one of my employee's (ex-employees...since she's having a baby) is having a baby girl...I have to say Ethan was very well behaved! I am so proud of him! It was good to get out and nice to see some friends and meet some new people. Seeing all that pink....makes me think about trying for a girl. Not anytime in the NEAR future - but maybe in the future!

That's about it from our part of the world....Hope everyone is doing well!

(I've got pictures....but daddy has the camera at the game...so I'll post some soon)
