Happy 1st Birthday Ethan!

Ethan's marvelous dinosaur birthday cake that Marcy made. We were all very impressed by her "skills"
The traditional eating of the cake. I think Alexis still wins at being the messiest, yet Ethan definately wins and getting the most in his mouth. Happy Birthday Buddy!

Notice: Camera is Sick

I'm doing a little better here and there with updating posts. Yet as of last week, my camera is under the weather. Adon was playing with it and I asked him to hand it to me (because he isn't supposed to be playing with it without help) and as he was handing it to me my sweet two-year-old accidentally dropped it on the tile. Lukily it still will take a picture and I figured out how to get the lense to go back into the camera but it won't focus very well. So until further notice I may have to used picuters from the past or from other people's camera. Maybe a few fuzzy pictures won't be too bad, I'm not much of a photographer any way.

Adon Loves Snow

During Collin's naps, Adon and I go outside to enjoy the newly fallen snow. Yes those are socks on his hands because he wants gloves like mommy but I've misplaced his mittens. I should have looked in his little pockets. He is pointing to the cool blow up lawn decorations that our landlords have in the front of their house. He really likes the snow globe.
Here is Adon by the snow globe. He is in his new snow pants and last years coat that still fits him. He loves to wear Collin's hat to go swing. My camera ran out of batteries before I could get cute pictures of him swinging outside. He doesn't care how cold it is.

Here is my sweet boy. I can't believe he is two. He loves to go outside and play in the snow. That smile melts my heart no matter how cold it is outside. Adon's word for snow man is "ninos" wich in spanish is children, I think. I don't know where he learned that but hey.

My New Best Friend

Two big stuffed bears arrived on Christmas Day. This one is at Grandma and Grandpa Egberts house. I thought this was such a cute picture of Collin looking like he had found a long lost friend and started talkig to this huge bear. Adon and Collin also recieved a large, white, CocaCola Bear that we have been saving since Aaron's CocaCola days.

Splish Splash in One Big Bath

Adon being splashed by his little brother.

Collin is finally big enough to hang with the big kids.

All four cousins in the big tub at Grandma and Grandpa Egbert's house. Ethan is on oxygen for his RSV but he is still as excited to be in the water as any one else.

What a cute guy, I love his big brown eyes and to see him so happy.

Bomb's Away!

Collin is getting pretty good at eating almost anything. Today we were having plain old oatmeal and formula since his bowels really didn't need the fruit. Any way he gets so excited to eat that he flings his arms toward the bowl and spoon. This time he got the spoon and it flipped end over end and splattered my baby's face with goo. Needless to say we got a picture just in time before he realized that he didn't like goo on his face.

Multitasking?

Here is how the Wilson boys do thier chores. After clearing the living room and kitchen of obsticles, the boys turn on a movie and let "spot" our roomba vaccume. Aaron calls it multitasking. He is entertaining and cleaning.
Collin is a little unsure about "spot" He has gotten better though. He used to cry when we put him on the ground when Spot was working. But now he just needs to be able to keep he eye on him. Spot will bump into Collin and not hurt him but Collin doens't like that at all. It is Adon's chore to vaccume the house with Spot. Our only rules are don't stand or sit on Spot, and when Spot is tired (batery dies) then its time to put him to sleep (plug him in).
