Watch out - He's sad

Ethan's pouty face is so cute, we just had to catch it on camera. There is a video that accompanies this, but I don't want everyone to think I'm a bad mom. I figured I'd just include the pictures.

Look at that crocodile tear!

Didn't know it was possible to stick that lip out so far.

So Expressive

My little burrito is so expressive - I can't help but snap his picture all the time. I have included captions of what I'm pretty sure he's saying.

HEY....how YOU doin?

When are you making my bottle woman?!

Cheese! I'm smilin pretty for the camera.

This is not so much what he's saying but what he's doing. He can't figure out why he isn't able to roll from stomach to his back, but it's because he always gets his arm pinned.

Sleep Tight

I came into Ethan's room to check on him the other night, and this is how I found him - cute little booty high in the air!

Christmas

I have never gotten into the decorating spirit for Christmas before this year, and I am loving it! Although we are on a strict budget, I've found some cute things to decorate with. More to come for sure.

This day is bananas!

Ethan is a growing boy (in case you haven't noticed) and he is ALWAYS eating - but what else is new? I got these little contraptions that you can put food in to prevent them from choking, and until now Ethan has hated them. Mostly because he can't figure out how to stick it in his mouth. But today I put a banana in it and he loved it!

I had to add this picture. He looks like a little angel!

Nom nom nom...

This is a total Billy face..

Fleating. Flirting and eating at the same time. He multi-tasks.

Lettered Cottage

One of my absolutely favorite blogs to follow is the Lettered Cottage, which is a do-it-yourself blog, and it's actually becoming pretty well-known! This couple is amazing and has impeccable taste, and they also know what it means to live on a budget. Click here to see how they renovated their fireplace for $80!

Byers' Sealing

Today I had the opportunity to witness something truly amazing: the sealing of a family in my ward. Last year, this family adopted two boys from the foster care system. First, I had their oldest son in my Sunday school class, and wow was he a challenge! But as time went by, he and his brother slowly changed into the amazing little boys they are now. Don't get me wrong, they are still rambunctious, but their desire to learn and genuineness is so inspiring. I now teach the youngest boy (9) and he is my joy on Sundays! His answer to everything is an excited "JESUS!" It makes me laugh just thinking about it. I'm so thankful to their family for allowing me to witness that very special moment between them. It's a day I'll never forget!
