Strained Kisses

This October went by so fast, I could hardly keep up with it. I kept busy playing with Ethan, and I even made applesauce with my upstairs neighbor from the apples in our backyard. We had a lot of good weather --which was great for playing in the park, but as soon as November came we got our first snow. Ethan thought it was cool.




Like always, we've added some fun movies of Ethan with his silly antics. Personally I love the dancing to "If I Were a Rich Man" (and yes, I know his pajamas don't fit, but we ran out of laundry that morning. Still, I love his bed-head). I've decided that since having Ethan, I've smiled or laughed more per day than I ever did beforehand. He makes me laugh so hard, and I love him so much. Oh, and thank you to Richard's sister Andrea; she lent us the little slide to help Ethan work off some energy when the weather is bad. He loves it. By the way, we gave Ethan a haircut the other day, and got some before and after pictures to show you. As you can tell, he doesn't really like haircuts, but he did okay for the first half while Richard juggled in front of him. He got hair all over him, and us, and it made his back look like that of a very hairy man. I don't think it's any premonition of the future, I don't think he has the genes for it, but who knows?

Great job on the haircut! That is a difficult thing to accomplish with little guys.
Do you cut Richards too?

Yes, I cut Richard's hair, but it's a little easier since I can use the clippers on the back and sides. Ethan would freak out with the clippers, so I just use scissors on the whole thing.
