Get Well Soon Daddy!

We had a pretty good weekend despite Ben's nasty flu. It's a bummer that he didn't get to enjoy his weekend, but we hope he's on the road to recovery. Ethan is up to some new tricks - lots of rolling and getting on all fours and rocking, but no crawling yet. We don't think it will be long, though. He also had another good swim lesson -- he really is a natural :)

Enjoy the picture and video below. Click here for some more cute ones.

Fun in Boulder

Ethan had a lot of fun in Boulder with Aunt Michel and Uncle Jason, and particularly with their dog Charlie. Admittedly, Ethan was a bit fussy all weekend and we think he might be on the path to his two top teeth...stay tuned.

Despite a little crankiness and the cold weather, we had a fun visit and owe Aunt Michel a big thank you for watching Ethan while Mom and Dad skied together. It was a perfect day for skiing, and I'm so glad we decided to go and that we came home in one piece. All in all, it was a good weekend -- quality time with family, exercise and some good food! What more could you ask for?

Ethan (and Mom and Dad) are looking forward to relaxing at home this weekend and can't wait for more family time with Mom-Mom and then Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Katie coming up. Sorry for not so many great pics, but Ethan kept us busy this weekend. Click here for a few good ones.

Happy New Year

Mom has been busy the past few weeks, but we've still done some fun things worth reporting. We had a good New Year's Eve with lots of Ethan's friends over (We had 6 babies/kids here ranging in age from 3 weeks to 2.5 years!). Most of the babies cooperated and the parents were able to eat a lot and have fun. Ethan has started swimming lessons and seems to be a pro already. He is fine when we put his whole face in the water which really impressed the teacher, and he hasn't cried once.

We're looking forward to some great upcoming weekends/photo opportunities. We're off to Boulder on Friday to visit Michelle & Jason and then a few weeks later Mom-Mom comes to SF and then Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Katie. Ethan can't wait to see everyone. In the meantime, here are some pics to hold you over. You can see how many I have to take to get just one smile!
