A fun Weekend!

We went to Papa and Mare's house a couple weeks back....it was so much fun! The sun would make an appearance every so often, which was sooooooo NICE!!! For those who do not live in WA, we are having a VERY LONG winter/spring :( Here are some pics from the weekend:

 Mare and Ethan playing hockey:

C'mon!:

 Ready,                                                                                 Set,

 Swing!                                                                                                    Whew!

 Papa bought these for Ethan for 'loud' noises such as saws; however, they worked for the ice cream maker on this day:

 See that bug:

 Ice Cream is READY:

 Nope, not an ice cream headache, this is his CHEESE smile:

 A bit too much:

The year in review....

In the last year:

Brock accepted a new job in Tumwater....yipppeeeeeee, no more 45 minute commute! In fact, he works so close that he has started riding a bike to work! He is really enjoying his new job, and being closer to home.

Kaylyne has continued teaching 3rd grade, and is gearing up for SUMMER vacation. The school year has been stressful due to so much emphasis on test scores, Ethan being sick often, and being sick herself.

Ethan has had a GREAT year! His sitter situation is still confusing, but I think that we have found the best of both worlds....He is loving 1 day a week preschool with Mare. He enjoys puzzles, counting, playing guns, and dinosaurs.....TRULY a BOY!!!!! He has taken swim and gymnastics....he can't wait until he is old enough for 'sport' leagues. 

Here is the year in pictures (no particular order...sorry):

A local company, Babylegs, was looking for models who can sit on the potty. I sent in a picture of Ethan and he was chosen! It was sooooo much fun to be apart of this:

 He has been on their website for almost a year:
