LOL!

The other day I was driving and feeling generous. I was at a backed up red light and I stopped early to let this guy out of a parking lot and go in front of me. I was expecting a curteous wave or some kind gesture. HE BLEW ME A KISS!!!!! LOL!!! I turned SO red and I could not stop laughing. I didn't think I would be able to drive. It was hilarious and very unexpected. He was pretty cute, too, should have taken down the work number off his truck. LOL, just kidding. It was kind of nice though, I haven't had that happen in a LONG time LOL!

Ethan turns FIVE!

Ethan is five. Last month, that is. I am a little late getting things on here. I remember when he was born. Something I won't ever forget... birthing a 9 lb 14 oz baby. Wasn't too easy LOL! Here are some pics from the birth.



So this is what you look like with an almost 10 pound baby inside you!


The big guy. He was so bruised up from my pelvic bone. Poor little baby. I was holding him and having a sweet moment alone with him and a nurse came in and she looked at him and grabbed him away from me and started trying to get him to breathe. I said, what are you doing!? And she said he is turning blue, he must not be breathing. I said, It is a bruise. Oh, she said and handed him back to me. Oh ya and I also noticed about this time that Ethan has webbed toes on his right foot just like his daddy LOL!


Ethan's family party. We had fun. Ethan liked his balloons and cupcakes.


Guess what his favorite present was, a lightsaber. He loves Star Wars! And now Indiana Jones and Iron Man.


Ethan also graduated from preschool at the end of May. He had a great time during the year and learned a lot of social skills. He loved his teacher, Ms Karen. She was the greatest.

Happy Mother's Day from Ethan



Ethan brought home a present from preschool that he made me for mother's day. It was a cute wooden frame he decorated and inside is the picture here. Along with the gift was a card. Here is what it said inside...

Happy Mother's Day

My mother's name is Melissa.
My mother is 6 years old.
My mother has brown hair.
My mother weighs 6 pounds. (LOL not even at birth)

My mother's favorite...
television show: Spiderman

Ethan's thoughts

Friday we had some scary weather and the tornado alarms went off. I got blankets and piled the kids in the closet and I watched out the window. Ethan came out of the closet and asked me, "Is a volcano coming, mom?" I laughed so hard. It was a great comic relief in a stressful situation.

My friend, Heather, came to visit Friday and she brought my kids these little rubbery toys that you put in water and they grow. Ethan picked the dinosaur one. Heather told him that the next day when he looked at it, it would be bigger and even bigger the next day. Later Ethan asked me if dinosaurs were mean. I told him that some were mean. Then he said really worried, "I don't want my dinosaur to grow!" I told him it wouldn't grow that big and then he said in a very disappointed way, "But I want to ride on its back!" So funny the way kids think.
