I spoke too soon

Unfortunately, I spoke too soon when I said that Ethan was being such a good baby. He was good for about two weeks and it was heaven, let me tell you.  But now he is back and as cranky as ever.  I am thinking he is finally going to break a tooth or something because he just hasn't been very happy the last week and a half.  He usually is pretty good when we take him places but recently he has been such a stinker.  If anyone holds him besides me or Brian, he screams like they are hurting him. I know he's just sensitive and I feel so bad for the little guy.  He isn't so bad when we're home but still pretty sensitive when he gets tired or hungry.  Anyway, I know its just a phase and we love him so much. Last night we went over to Missy and Brad's and Ethan was just being fussy when Brian just laid him on the table and put his hat over his face.  Ethan started to laugh so hard. It was so cute I wish I had my camera with me.  And Ethan has found his feet.  He discovered them a week ago and now can't get enough.  He tries so hard to put them in him mouth when he's in the Bumbo.  Its so funny and he's accidentally taken off his socks a few times as well. I love the surprised look on his face when he does it.  So cute!

I finally got Ethan to eat cereal.  I just had to try a different kind. I got oatmeal and bananas and he loves it. I think this kid is going to love food that has lots of flavor because he still won't eat rice but he downs the oatmeal. I can't wait to try real food to see how he reacts.  It'll be so fun.

This weekend we went down to hang out with our friends, the Van Camps.  It was so fun and I wish we could see them more often.  They are the friends that Brian went to school with before his mission.  They are such good people and I absolutely love their little girl, Kylie.  She is just too dang cute. They are trying to potty train her and it was so funny.  I definitely am not looking forward to that part of being a mom.  Hopefully, Ethan is just a natural and has no problems. Yeah right!

After we hung out with them, we spent the night at my mom's so that Brian could do a gas line for Casey's (Heidi's fiance) brother the next morning.  It was fun to be able to hang out with my mom and Heidi and to be able to watch conference.  I love conference and I love to hear the prophet speak.  He is just so amazing and so are all the apostles.  I absolutely love them and know that they are men of God.  How could you listen to them and not know that?  They are so amazing.  Anyway, Sunday we just stayed home and were lazy watching conference, then went to Brad and Missy's for dinner and games. Thanks again guys for a fun night!
How could you not love this face?  So cute!
My two handsome boys. I love these two more than anything else.
