Nice Quick One

We were at Grammie O's house the other day. I was sitting on the floor, with my back up against a chair in the living room, and I was holding Sayda. Ethan was standing on that chair behind me. Then all of a sudden, I was completely not ready for him, and he jumped onto my head from behind me! All his weight, pushed my head forward, and hurt me SO badly! I went to the chiropractor and got it better…. what a little rascal!

And I had to write this so that I remember these times… we take walks a LOT since we moved into our house on Bird Dr! Well much more often now, we only push Sayda in the stroller, and Ethan walks on his own, like Diella. Well Diella and I are constantly slowing down so that Ethan can catch up. He's such a laid-back, take-his-time, leisure walker! Takin it all in, I guess, hehehe.

Ethan is still not at all interested in learning to go potty…. but we're trying. Last night daddy was explaining to him about leaving that in his diaper. Ethan's response to daddy was, "sorry." Jake said to him, "don't say sorry to ME, say sorry to your butt!" …. and sure enough, Ethan then replied, "sorry my butt." HAHHA!

Every once in a while lately, Jake and I find ourselves saying we think that Ethan might be into his terrible two's. Its just these mini fits he throws, or just when he's overly whiney for no reason. It really pales in comparison to his big sister's bad times, so of course we're still teaching him through it, but most of the time its pretty easy to brush off. Remembering how horrible it was when we and Diella were going through that, I guess now I'm able to look at it as a blessing in disguise! Having the hardest ones FIRST, that way nothing else seems so bad, haha!
