Happy Birthday Ethan

Ethan, from the moment that we knew you were on the way, we wondered what you would look like and could not wait to meet you. From the moment that we met you on March 31st, 2008 at 8:12 am, we knew that you would complete the family perfectly!

The first few months at home were spent getting to know each other -- you loved to watch Benjamin and our dog, Shelby. Your fussiness as a new born each night was quickly forgotten as you began to smile and laugh at us. You amazed us by rolling over early and crawling at 6 months. You walked at 9 1/2 months and have not stopped since. Recently, you added running and climbing a flight of stairs to you list of accomplishments. Your face lights up anytime Benjamin is in the room. You even follow him to time-out! You have an obsession with your stuffed doggie and never really liked bottles. In fact, you finally convinced us that you were through with formula at 10 months (you have had only table food since 10 months old and can sign "all done" and "more"). You never took a paci -- believe me, we tried. You are always smiling and love to show off your 4 teeth!

Ethan, we are so glad you are part of our family and have truly loved the first year with you. We know that you will continue to amaze us in the coming years -- Happy Birthday Pie Man!
