Busy, Busy, Busy

Well, it's been a little while since I updated the blog. We have been so busy lately. In the past couple of weeks, we have attended the AIA Design Awards, gone to Arkansas to celebrate Callen's second birthday, (I cannot believe he is two!) and been to various Band or school related functions in the area. It has been a whirlwind of excitement.

Ethan is doing great! No more health issues so far! We have started taking daily walks around the neighborhood. He loves to collect little objects and leaves and such while we are walking so he can add them to his leaf collage book that he and Nana made together. He is doing very well identifying so many colors, and he is very descriptive when he speaks. It is so adorable. The other day he walked up to Andy and said. "Dada I wanna drink of cold water please..." So CUTE!! He is also working on using Yes sir, No sir, Yes ma'am and no Ma'am. He is beginning to use them more and more when he is speaking to older people...

We had a blast in Arkansas as usual! Jon and Calli recently bought a really nice 4 wheeler so we all had a great time playing around on it and exploring their many acres of land. It was so nice, and Ethan loved being on the 4wheeler! Such a typical dude... We are going camping with them at Lake D'Arbonne in October, we are very much looking forward to playing around on the 4 wheelers again!!

Last night we were able to attend Red Oak's band competition. It was so much fun, we got to go up into the super nice press box and watch thanks to PawPaw and Nana. PawPaw is the new Band announcer (he is GREAT by the way!) So we were able to go up there and enjoy all the free food and entertainment. Ethan is a HUGE fan of the band, he regularly goes up and attends their practices with his Nana, and he loves to conduct, and play the drums and clarinet with the band as well.

Well, I hate to say goodbye, but we are off to watch the Cowboy game at Unc and Piggy's house. So enjoy the slide show, we look forward to seeing all of you soon!

Love,

ABE
