So I don't forget the awesome-ness of Ethan here is what he's doing lately.

#1 - he is potty-trained!! at just over 2 yrs. Diaper for nap and bedtime - underwear all other times and he's really good about telling us when he has to go. He has maybe one accident a week - not shabby for my little boy! Noelle deserves so much of the credit for this one - she was so patient and worked with him for a few weeks (when we'd discussed putting it off and waiting). She came through! He did this with some small "rewards" of stickers and coins.

#2 - talking in full sentences and can carry on a real conversation with you.

me: did you go to gym class today?

E: I did go to gym class today.

me: what did you do at gym class?

E: I jumped in balls. I climb ladder and on and on.

#3 - his favorite friends are now inanimate objects.

#1 friend = Cookie Monster

#2 friend = Frosty the snowman (at grandma and poppa's house)

#3 friend = Clown, a ceramic bank my aunt Joan made for me years ago

#4 friend = A stuffed Easter bunny that he was dancing with just this morning.

he is so sweet to his "friends" saying, "Good Morning Cookie Monster" and making sure that they get time on the potty and sharing his milk with them. He makes me smile so much!!
