We went to see Santa this past week and that was fun. Well, it was fun for everyone except Ethan. Lets just say that it is a good thing that Santa only comes around once a year. Although I am planning on this same picture (only Ethan a little bigger) next year.

Ethan does this thing where he puts his hand in the air and you are supposed to say "Yeah! Ethan!" for him. Like he needs more attention right? That is why he gets angry at the end of the video. Because I am not saying "Yeah".

I know it probably seems like all I ever write about is Ethan - which gets boring I know. But seriously nothing else happens in my life. I don't have a car so I stay home and the only other thing that happens is.... nothing. We play all day and then sleep all night and start over the next day. But honestly I can't think of a better way to spend every day. Granted I wish it was possible to potty train a 10 month old but that I can live with.

We had good week this last week. Jacob's new schedule is awesome and I love being able to plan things with set days off! On Friday we went down to Salt Lake to the Jazz and Lakers game. We bought some season tickets from a woman on line so our seats were pretty decent. Ethan had a sleep over with Grandma Youngerg (mom) and that was nice since he wouldn't have had a good time at the game. We did win however and it was a really good game. Jacob, of course, had us wearing our jerseys to support the team. It was a fun night.

Ethan is a growing little weed and we are loving every little minute of it! We put up our Christmas tree and decided that our best bet was to put it in the play pen. So... Christmas with kids is different but it is also so much fun. Ethan loves to pull himself up to the tree and rub his head in the branches - what a goof!

He also likes to get up close and personal with the camera. He has 4 teeth now - 2 on top and 2 on bottom. He loves to bit everyones fingers who are dumb enough to still stick them in his mouth.


His favorite thing to do however is try to get his Papa's X Box remote controller. They are very elusive and always out of reach. Every now and then he will get a finger on them and think they are the coolest things on earth. We can tell when he has one because this odd silence falls into our home and we can tell that he is playing with something that he is not supposed to. And when he is not trying to put his fingers on the controllers he is trying to put his tongue on them. We are surprised that anything in our home has survived the amount of druel that it has had to endure these last 10 months.


He has also started doing this thing where he scrunches up his whole face instead of just smiling. It sometimes is a little scary looking but it is cute too! He usually snorts right along with the face which just adds to the cuteness of it all. I can't believe that he is already 10 months and is looking more and more like a little boy every day. It makes me sad but I am so looking forward to being able to watch him run around and play at the park and learn to ride a bike and all of those things that we will get to do when he is older. I am, however, not looking forward to tanrums, school expenses, and not to even mention having to send him off to school in the first place. Oh well, we will just have to deal with all of that when it comes I guess!
