Mt St Helens

My phone got overloaded with pictures for a couple of weeks and was acting crazy so posting was a bit of a problem. This day trip occurred a couple of weeks back. We met a friend of mine from Seattle and her 2 year old, also named Ethan!, for a short hike and picnic. Many snakes, brave chipmunks at the picnic are, and a nest full of baby Robins helped make the trip a winner!

Swim Lessons

Ethan loves the games he gets to play at swim class and today he progressed by blowing bubbles, placing his whole face in the water and by submerging himself. It is fun to watch. I am so proud of him.

Hiking with Papa

Ethan surprised Grandma and Papa by summitting Antoine Peak, the mountain near their house. He learned about horse tracks and never tired of the walkie talkies we brought.

4th of July in Bayview

We had a spectacular 4th of July weekend at the Bitter End Marina in Bayview Idaho. Awesome fireworks, cute parade, great family and friends, boating, and swimming. Next year we hope to include Jeremy!

Last Day of Preschool

Today was Ethan's last day of preschool.  Ethan loves going to school so much! I am surprised at how sad I was when I came to pick him up for the last time. I am sorry that he won't be able to have that freedom and indepence in such a great environment for a few months. He made friends that we hope to play with over the summer.
