Soon to be 1!!

In just a few short days Ethan is going to be 1! We are working on getting the house cleaned & ready for Ethan's party. Matt is going to be off Weds, Thurs, & Fri so we can get things set up. We need to find a place for some of Ethan's bigger toys so they aren't in the way. It's supposed to be nice all weekend which is good b/c we planned on being able to use our backyard.

Ethan is getting more daring. He is trying to stand up without the assistance of furniture. He hasn't been successful yet though. He's been trying walk on his own but he still hasn't found his balance totally so he always ends up plunking down on his little behind. Soon enough he'll be walking. Once he does that we plan on beginning potty training. Both of us are tired of fighting to get diapers on & off of him. We see this as a sign that he is ready to use the potty. We figure about another month & we'll start.

Ethan is wearing 12 mos sized clothes now & we are good to go on summer clothes. He could use 18M & 24M sizes. Things for fall. At the present time he is not really interested in too many toys. He's all about getting into things he shouldn't have. I think my kid might become a computer geek. He seems to go for anything electronic. If you still don't know what to get him I mentioned in the last post about his college fund. You can always donate to that. For anyone who doesn't live close or won't be at his party I put a link up in the side bar to donate through his website. I set up an account for him so that I can easily transfer the money to his college fund. To make a donation though his website just click on the button in his sidebar that says donate. For those who bought his bracelet it's the same thing.

I am so excited about his b-day. It's going to be a fun day.
