Family Cradle

Ethan is the second generation of Meyers to sleep in this hand made Cradle. It was made for Eli by his Dad, Ed. All of Ed and Vicki's children slept in it. They were able to send it to us so Ethan could have his turn!

All of the children's names are carved into the bottom and Ethan's will be soon. Sometimes I put Ethan in it while I'm folding clothes and rock it every now and then. He loves it!

Our biggest Blowout EVER!!

Ethan had his biggest blowout he has ever had to date! We got up around 9am (I know, it was late) and Ethan had nursed around 7:30 so I knew he was not hungry. He always has a bm when he first wakes up so I put him in his crib until he was done. Well, he was happy in there for awhile and I got a few chores done around the house. Little did I know why he was so happy until I lifted him up and found this:



Yes, I know it was gross to take a picture of it. But it was his first big blowout. I had to have a record of it! I tried cleaning him up with wet wipes but that didn't work at all. In to the bath happily he went.

Ethan in the Sun

Ethan discovered a patch of sunlight on his Kick and Play. He spent a good 10 mins trying to grab it! Who needs toys?!!!

Another day at Yoga

Ethan and I went to yoga again last week. Here he is getting ready for class. All the babies lay on their blankets in front of our mats. Ethan is one of the youngest there but he always enjoys looking at the baby next to us. They are usually rolling over or trying to crawl off. I'm sure he's looking forward to doing the same. He was so good last week and didn't cry at all!

April's Visit

My sister April escaped from "boot camp" long enough to come visit us for the weekend and catch up on some much needed sleep! We did wake her up long enough to go eat a Joe's Crab Shack.

Ethan has passed the shell fish allergy test! He sat on my lap while I ate my crab legs. If you can't read it, the bib says "Let's get Crackin"!

Happy Day

This yellow suit is so soft! He posed himself for this! I think he was trying to get his fist in his mouth but missed. This is what happened when I took the hood off:

Ethan outside in his sun hat. He loves it outside! I got this one of him and Harry while I was cooking dinner.

Revenge of the Squirrels!!!!

This afternoon Ethan and I went for a walk in the backyard and this is what we found:

Our 2nd bird feeder and the Hummingbird feeder had been maliciously chewed down!!!!!! They attempted to chew through the cable wire holding up the sunflower seed feeder but didn't quite get through that one yet. I told Eli we are going to have to use some type of wire to hang them. Any idea what a squirrel can't chew through and you can buy at Home Depot?

I just don't understand why this year they are so interested it them. Last year they never touched them..... I've always love all animals, except for mean ones. I am now beginning to change my mind about the fuzzy rats that call themselves squirrels!
