Ethan turned seven.

Seven years ago today it all started with our little boy Ethan. What a joy he has been. Ethan is very tender and takes care of all the women in his life so well. He is very smart and a talented artist. Ethan's best quality is how polite he is. He is usually the first to say thank you and he is always thinking of others.





Ethan has been talking about this RoboRaptor for several months. We were a little nervous that it would be too complicated for him. Finally, we gave in and we are glad we did. He loves it.







Notice how Kate loved the RoboRaptor in the box. Once she heard and saw it move she was on the run. You can see the fear in her eyes. Run Kate Run.


Last year for Ethan's birthday we went to a brand new Chili's by our house. We had such good memories we decided to do it again.







Then we came home and had cake and ice cream. What a fun Day!









Happy 7th Birthday little guy.

Wow 7 years already. Happy Birthday Ethan! He was the cutest CHUBBYest little baby ever and now he is the cutest handsomest little guy ever! (Remember when he barfed scrambled eggs all over me?) Why do I always remember that!
Anyway, that robo thing looks pretty cool for Ethan and looks like Lance is having fun with it too. ;-) I love Abby's glasses and your family picture at Chili's. Do you just ask random strangers to take your pictures like that? I'm always too chicken!
(Sarah you look AWESOME...seriously, that lady at the store was a moron!)

Glad you guys had a great time. We wound up getting Chili's To Go last night instead of eating in. :) I should have come in and said "hi," but I was a little embarrassed because I was still wearing the same lounge outfit I've had on since Claire was born!
