Ethan's Pumpkin Song

Ethan learned a new song at school today. I love hearing him sing and love that he is having fun at school. Here is a snippet of my little performer and his hyperactive sister (you'll see).

Ethan's Third Birthday Party

Here are a few pics from Ethan's Birthday Party. It was at the police station and Dwayne gave everyone a tour of the station and then walked us over the the fire station. The fire men were on a call but they let the kids play on the truck and everyone had fun. We ended the party with a visit from MaGruff, the crime fighting dog (Dwayne in costume). The kids were divided on this; some loved him and ran up to give him hugs, and some were scared and burst into tears, including Carly who ran out of the room screaming. One little girl (Amanda) asked her mom, "Mommy, did that dog come here to scare us?" We later told Carly that Magruff was really Daddy in a costume, and she laughed but still did not want to go near him! Just goes to show that even with your best intentions, you can't please all kids all the time!

Ethan's New Bed

Well, Ethan made it through his first night in his new bed. He only got up once after we put him in the bed and tucked him in. He said he wanted to look out the window and see if it was light ouside and time to wake up. Then he went back to bed and slept the whole night. Let's see how tonight goes! It helps that he has new Car sheets and a matching blanket. He told me they are very cozy! Thanks G&G and Grandmama & Grandpap!! Here is a picture and a video to show you.

Progress?

Yesterday when Dwayne picked up Ethan from pre-school, his teacher told Dwayne that Ethan was making some progress with potty training. When Dwayne asked if Ethan had used the potty at school (which he has never done before), the teacher said no. Confused, Dwayne asked what then had Ethan done? The teacher explained that they have a timer that they set to go off every 1/2 hour. When the timer goes off, all the kids are instructed to go to the bathroom and try to use the potty. Ethan hears the timer go off, runs to the bathroom and stands there and watches the other kids go! That's my boy!
