This is how I roll


Last week I had put baby Ethan on his blanket for some "tummy time". I looked over a few moments later and he was flat on his back. I took some pictures of this first "roll" but dismissed it as a fluke. After all, Cassidy's first roll was at 4 months and her second roll was at 7 1/2 months. Baby Ethan is only 3 1/2 months old! But lo and behold, just a few days later he rolled from his back to his front, which is funny, because he hates being on his tummy. He does it all the time now. Harvard, here we come!



Last night we went to fireworks. We were all having a great time before the fireworks started, especially Cassidy:


We were worried about Baby Ethan, thinking he may not like the noise of the fireworks. We had talked about fireworks all evening with Cassidy and she acted so excited. Plus, last year she liked them o.k. So we thought she would do great. Boy, were we wrong. She started screaming as soon as the fireworks started and she had to hug Joel and not look the entire time. She absolutely refused to even turn her head and peek at them.

Baby Ethan, on the other hand, thought it was great:







We had fun, anyway.

Oh, in case you were wondering, our seller pushed back our closing a week, and so we are not moving tomorrow; we are moving on the 12th. So now it's back to procrastinating and getting stressed out because we're still not packed. Lovely.

HI!! I Love your little Ethan. And I love the name by the way. If I have a boy I wanted to name him Ethan but it would be Ethan Allen and that would be lame considering the famous decorator. Anyway, I just wanted to say hi and how cute your posts and family are. I hope your move goes well. Hey does Michelle have a blog? Tell her hi for me too if you can. I'll check in again soon. Love ya

We also had a baby who loved the fireworks and a scared toddler. I guess the age when fears really start.?
Good luck with your delayed move. Sometimes that can be more, or at least extended, stress. I wish you well!
