Happy New Year...

Ethan has been having a blast lately and it really shows. He is saying more and more words every day. His newest are "yogurt" ("Yach"), "glasses" ("Gach"), "Ach" - which means 'again', "Bus" - which he never stops saying (literally everything is a bus!).

All else is well. Mom and Dad are working hard and just still trying to get the kid to eat anything other than chicken nuggets, meatballs and crackers :) I guess it's a little better than that, but still not great. Yesterday he took a bite of a carrot stick so we're getting somewhere (of course he didn't swallow it, but a bite is a bite!).

Enjoy the recent pics from the Children's Museum and some cute ones at home.

Summer in SF




We've had some amazing weather here -- it's our Indian summer and Ethan has been loving it. We went swimming at a friend's house and a public pool outdoors and went to the beach. He's a real California boy! Enjoy the pics and I'll post more from this weekend hopefully tomorrow.

PS - Glad our Houston family is safe!

It's been a while!

I promise (this time I really mean it) to start posting more, but things have been quite busy in the Walter household.

Ethan is fully running around and very hard to keep up with these days. We're having a lot of fun with him though. He's saying more and more words and really taking in life every day. It's so much fun to watch him see something for the first time. We took him camping last weekend and he loved being outside so much. He really is an outdoorsy kid - which we love! He ran around the campsite and hiked up hills while other kids sat stationary and played. Ben and I got a workout just chasing him all weekend.

He also enjoyed Tahoe with Ben's family. We went swimming, hiking (not me with my broken ankle), and exploring. He spent time on the beach and loved playing in the sand - only dry sand, of course. He discovered that ping pong is his new favorite sport, just second to basketball. We really have to invest in a ping pong paddle and ball for him soon.

We're looking forward to our trip to Baltimore over Labor Day to see the rest of his family. For now, enjoy the pics of our recent adventures and stay tuned for more to come! Click here for recent pics.
