Happy Birthday, Ethan!!!

Oh, Ethan, today you turn three! I can't believe it's already been three years since you entered this world. My pregnancy with you was great! I only gained 18 lbs. Labor was equally was wonderful. You were out in 4 minutes...I barely had to push. (Thanks to your 9lb7oz brother who proceeded you 19 months earlier)



You had SOOOOO much hair and came out with your bottom lip sticking out.

Here you are just a few hours old, already enjoying those fingers.

This is your first bath at home. And your bottom lip once again sticking out.

Here you are two months old. This was one of my favorite outfits.

And the priceless smile and eyebrow raise that you get from your Dad.

I tried to scan a picture of my mom and I to compare to this one. You really look like me.

Your first birthday !

Gotta love Daddy!

Just a few months ago. You love to feed the ducks. Funny thing, it is something we did alot when I was pregnant with you. As a matter of fact, the day I went into labor with you, we were feeding the ducks and Colton actually got bit by one.

Your face is full of expressions. I can almost always tell what you are thinking.

Cute, Sweet, and Incredibly ornery!!

I love you so much, bug. Your personality is so unique. And even though your three's will probably turn me grey. I wouldn't want you any other way. You keep me on my toes. I love how you like to "nug" (snuggle) with me on the couch, how you stick out that bottom lip so far I fear it'll fall off, and how you are a boy through and through. You are fearless (except when it comes to Santa)!

I hope this year is a great one for you. I have really enjoyed watching you grow these past couple of years. And I am thankful everyday to have you in my life.
