Maine Maple Sunday

On Maine Maple Sunday, Gigi, Steve and Auntie Kim went to Brookridge Boilers sap house with us in Lyman, Maine. After visiting the sugar house, we went home and visited for the day.

Potty training

Ethan has officially started potty training. It is going to take some time but we'll get there.
(He did manage to pee in the toilet so success). :)

Mr. Potato Head

Early this morning, Ethan was wishing he could see the plow. Unfortunately, he did not see it.

During the evening, Ethan was playing with Mr. Potato Head. He thought it was fun to put Mr. Potato Head's arm in his head, as seen below.

It's a girl!

We have known since December about Jes' pregnancy but today we officially found out that Jes is having a girl. Jes' due date is early-August 2011. Ethan is going to have a little sister. :)

Quality Pepere time

Ethan eats some of his favorite breakfast foods: homemade French toast, Cheerios and strawberries.

Pepere reads, "Little Blue Truck."

Ethan's Yo Gabba Gabba shoes

We bought two pair of shoes for Ethan on Saturday but he wasn't too happy with the Yo Gabba Gabba shoes. But the next day (today), he loves them!

A very busy day!

This morning, Ethan watched some of his favorite Sprout shows as snow fell outdoors. After a little while, we traveled to Red's Shoe Barn in Dover, NH and Ethan received two new pair of shoes. Ethan now wears a size 9 toddler shoe! After shoe shopping, we went to Market Basket, then came home. Ethan was a big help at home as he helped Dada with the laundry, with some of the cleaning and recycling. Ethan's reward for all his help? A bath! :) (He loves baths).

66 degrees

It was a beautiful 66 degree day & Ethan wanted to shovel the snow outside. We didn't mind as it kept him occupied.

St. Patrick's Day!

Ethan, Dada and Pepere traveled to Poor People's Pub in Sanbornville, NH to celebrate St. Patrick's Day but unfortunately, the restaurant was too busy. The three of us decided to return to Sanford to celebrate this special day. We met up with Mama and Nana at the Backstreet Grill.
