OUCH!! Poor Ethan!

On the way to the hospital. He never moved at all. I asked him if he wanted a treat and after a minute he finally mouthed yes. Jeff felt so bad driving to the hospital all he could think about was when he broke his collarbone and his mom drove him to the dr. He swears she was looking for potholes in the road to hurt him as much as possible. He drove so slow to try to protect his baby. Such a good daddy!
He kept trying to play with toys. He is right handed and his right collarbone is broken so he would move his arm to play and immediately put it back down and say ow. So sad.
So daddy played for him.
His new "broy" (bra for little boys).
He hates it and never wants it on. His poor shoulder hurts all day and night but he is pretty tough and doesn't complain very often. He is so brave! I love my sweet little boy.

Conference weekend 2009!

Car lifting.
Ethan can lift it!
Look what I can do!
Look how high I can lift it.
Ethan on a big boy bike!
"Old daddy" he still looks sexy!
Ethan got to feed the rats Cheerios after they scored a basket.
Rats play b-ball!
This is their new favorite game at Cosi. They are so funny. Everyone laughs as they run around.
Easter egg hunt a week early.
There were only 3 other kids in Ethan's age group.
He was so funny, running over eggs to get one clear across the field.
Daddy and Ethan planting flowers for an underprivledged medical clinic.
He mostly put dirt on top of the flowers, but he tried.

Our first easter egg hunt of the day!
There weren't any eggs, but there was candy thrown everywhere.

Crazy day at the zoo!



Baby Elephant!

Welcome baby elephant! Born March 27th 2009 weighing 290 lbs.
Too tired for all the company. His mom wanted him to get up, but he just couldn't
Daddy drinking water from the pond. Ethan thought this was hilarious.
He was so close.
I can be an "l-nut" too!
Daddy "l-nut".
Welcome!
Mommy bear and her cubs!
Ethan would duck behind things and jump out and yell "Surprise"! He is such a clown. He doesn't always hide before he jumps out.
"Surprise!"
This goat must be a Pack. No hair on top, but plenty everywhere else!
Joe Cool hanging out in his new shades and sun hat!
Cheese! Don't mind the dirty shirt, daddy gave him some juice and he spilled right before we took this picture.
Where did he go?
There he is! Such a big boy.
Austin's new love...suckers! Any kind, any shape,Ethan leftovers, whatever, he loves them all!

Ethan is such a great big brother!

The Pack's family soccer game!

Shout out to Grandma and Papa!

Soccer

Austin loves the swing!


Ethans newest love...soccer!

Big boy underwear!
After four pair of underwear in an hour Mommy gave up and put the pull up back on.
But isn't he so darn cute. His skinny little body looks so cute in big boy pants.
Happy family playing in the slightly chilly spring weather. We love it!
Ethan loves the new neighbors dog Mia, or "Mema" as he calls her. He always talks about her and wants to go pet her. Luckily she is a very sweet dog that loves Ethan too!
Ethan saw Mia poop outside and talks about it all the time. the conversation goes like this... Ethan: Mema poops outside Mommy: really? Ethan: Ethan poops toilet Mommy: oh good boy! Ethan: Austin poops everywhere! Mommy:yes he does. Austin has been pooping out of his diapers at least twice a day for weeks. I swear if you feed him 1 ounce of baby food 3 come out. Explosively!
Our new favorite family activity. Out in the backyard, and over the fence into the empty field.
Just hanging out.
Watching the bubble show Ethan is putting on for him. Always so happy and content.
I love bubbles! Thanks Aunt Daryl! We love our christmas present.
Concentrating very hard to make it work. He is such a funny kid!
Happy St. Paddy's day! Austin and Ethan took turns wearing this hat all around the zoo. Everyone was laughing because they were so funny about it. Ethan would put it on and strut around like he was the collest thing ever. At least they have good self-esteem!
Look at those cute front teeth. I love them!
Big boy standing up to play.
Mommy stays close to catch him when he falls. He always looks at me like I pushed him down.
I thought this picture was funny because austin always makes a face and I never knew why, then I realized Jeff has the look on his face in this picture. I guess they do look like their daddy!
Apparently austin is ready for big boy food. Ethan left his plate of chicken on the couch and Jeff wasn't paying attention. I came back into the room to find Austin with handfuls of chicken and his mouth totally full. He didn't choke and he seemed to do okay with it. I guess it was his way of telling us he was hungry.
He is such a little garbage disposal. He quickly eats anything within reach. I can't tell if it is because he is hungry or if he is just trying to get some before Ethan eats it all.
