Past bedtime fun with cousin Theo from Colorado!

Ethan was excited to see his cousin and received the bonus of staying up late since there is a 2 hour difference from Colorado and Theo was trapped in an airplane all day!

This ones for you Aunt Sherri!

The bike finally made it outside! Decision was made by Ethan! Ethan has been riding this bike in our house (a true lifesaver for our physically active child) since receiving at age 1. I ran upstairs to come down to Ethan on our back deck on a beautiful sunny morning! The glasses he's wearing are safety glasses as he thinks he is a speed-skater (one of his favorite events in the Olympics!)

Fun with Friends in Clare, MI for St. Pat's Day!

Buddies! (They are only 5 months apart. Ethan is a giant and is officially into 5T clothes...he's 3!)

Sleepy Buddies!

Fun daytime activities with the Gallagher Boys!


A well overdue night out with friends! (Babysitter was left with 4 boys...oh boy!) The last stop of the evening was an awesome bakery owned by 10 cops called "COPS and DONUTS". Yum!

Too sweet not to share

Although Ethan plays rough and tough, he truly enjoys his cuddle time. Daddy's cuddle looks like this. Mommy's cuddle would be Ethan and I cheek to cheek. He likes to rub his cheek on mine...cat like behaviors!

Apparently someone is sick and tired of winter....

It is March 6th and where is this childs parents. I ran into the garage for seconds and this is what I came back outdoors too. Ethan's coat, hat and boots were all in a pile on our back patio.

This is "Dee"!

Ethan received this plant at a museum event. He immediately formed attachments to it and began to cry as when we left the building the wind caught it and it flew away...mom was his hero and rescued it. He was the one to name it and since bringing it home he has added the frog looking through the magnifying glass. It is his ritual every morning to water this plant during breakfast.

Bath time!

While reorganizing some areas in our home in preparation to sell it, Ethan found his baby bathtub!
