Fun Times...

This is just a post of random fun pictures we have taken lately. So, Ethan recently received part 1 of his hair cut. I’m trying to get him ready for one year portraits, but I am not a professional barber. I’ve learned that it works better to do hair cuts in phases. It’s difficult for...

Playing Catch-Up...

We have heard your cries and apologize for the lull in posting. I will try to finish catching up on summer photos in time to post about Ethan’s upcoming First Birthday. I cannot believe I am planning his one year old birthday party. I’m definitely that mom that gets weepy thinking about her...

Pool Time...

For Nguyen’s day off we decided to have a family pool day. By “day” I really mean about an hour, but for an 11 month old it might as well have been all day. Ethan is funny about the water. He’s only interested for a few short minutes and then just wants to play in the grass. Apparently,...

Gadget King...

Ethan’s favorite things have buttons and lights and are usually the exact things we tell him he cannot have. It’s like he has a sixth sense about electronics. He can tell when we take the batteries out of something. But it is pretty cute to watch him hold the phone over his shoulder like...

Picnic At The Park...

It was a beautiful day and we felt the need for a picnic. Ethan enjoyed crawling around in the grass and trying to chase the birds. He also had a lot to say about his new favorite fruit. ...

Louisiana Vacation Part 3...

On our way to visit friends in South LA, we stopped by the newly opened Gone Wild Safari park in Pineville, LA. It was great and we had a blast. Jerry the Giraffe was awesome, and to be honest, was the inspiration for Ethan’s birthday party theme. Ethan was much more engaged this go around and...

Louisiana Vacation Part 2...

Next on our list of fun things to do in Shreveport was to visit some animals… Gators and Friends to be more specific. Ethan was not very enthusiastic about the heat, but he did show some interest in the animals.

Louisiana Vacation Part 1...

We had a blast visiting Andrei for his 30th birthday party in Shreveport. While we were there we decided to try to find fun things to do with Ethan. The water fountains at the Barnwell Garden and Art Center seemed like a good choice. Nguyen and I enjoyed touring the park while Ethan slept. Then we enjoyed...

My First Spaghetti...

Ethan has been rather particular about the texture of the food he likes to eat. So, I was surprised and super pleased when he had so much fun eating spaghetti for the first time. Spaghetti happens to be my favorite childhood meal, so his pleasure in eating this meal was near and dear to my heart. I think...
