welcome to the outside world my boy

I feel like Ethan and I have basically been living in a cave all winter. Babies aren't best suited for winter activities so as the warm weather has come here and there, we've tried to get out and enjoy it!

Wheeler Farm


Sitting up on the grass. Did you guys have that apple thing when you were little? I swear we've had it since the 70s. It's Ethan's fav.
At the park.




He's not that thrilled by the swings quite yet. He kinda just sits there like a blob. I'm excited for this summer though because I think he'll be that much older to really enjoy being outdoors. He loves animals so I can't wait to take him to the zoo! Anyone want to come?

And here's a few of him that I took yesterday.....

There's a mirror in his room (or as you may remember as my old room from back in the day) right next to the chair where I feed him. He loves to look into it. This is their reflection.
 Flipping off the camera.

 To prove he has some hair growth at last.




Just a little update on us: Bret has suddenly become a busy guy. He works part time at Home Depot which he really enjoys and he just got a job with Google that he's excited about which he'll do from home on the computer (I'm glad because that means he'll still be around a lot). They're both two good things for him to do while he studies for the GMAT and applies for business schools. He's always been interested in hospital administration so he's volunteering at the hospital ER one morning a week to get a feel for it and see if he'd like to go into that field. But as always, who knows where life will take us, eh?

  1. Laura, he is such a doll. I love that smiling reflection one, and the last one, I could just eat him up. He is so stinking cute. I'm glad you gave us an update, it makes me feel not so far away. It sounds like things are going well. I feel like life always is up in the air, no matter what path you're on. Can't we all just see the future and know where we'll be living, what we'll be doing, etc.? But hang in there. There is definitely a plan for all of us, even when we don't think so. And often times I am the skeptical one. I'm glad you guys are doing well. How could you not, that Ethan is almost edible! I still can't get over that last picture! Too cute!

  2. He is the CUTEST little boy!!!!!! I love him. You guys are cute parents, I love you going down the slide with him :) You'll be the funnest mom! And I love Bret's classic Jazz t shirt! Where did he get that? I like it. That's exciting about the google job! And GMAT, and the hospital... way to dive in Bret! Seriously. Miss you and I'm calling you later... sorry it's been so long!
