Sunday Afternoon - Ethan

This fabulous August afternoon, while Austin was independently playing in the sandbox, Ethan and I hung back a few feet in the shade and hung out. I had my camera. (Don't I always!?) I took the opportunity to snap a few shots - of Ethan, and of he and I together. I find the timer on the camera takes better pictures than my husband (sorry, Michael, but its the truth). Gotta take advantage of the self-timer! If your camera has one, USE IT!!! :)

Yes, he's crawling on all fours! Yikes!

This one is my favorite of the two of us!

It Has Been a Long Time...

...since I have seen either one of these women; particularily Miss Tiffany. Her mom Lori entrusted me with parts of her life many years ago as the official babysitter for her...I got the pleasure of knowing Lori as she works with my mother. I believe Tiff was around the innocent age of one when I met her. A few years later her older sister Brittany came into the picture and I had two lovely girls to love up. And did I ever! I do get the chance to see Lori when I venture over to Point and dash into Fleet and I'm lucky enough that she works when I'm there running around the clothing department looking for her...but it has been awhile since I've seen either of her beautiful daughters. Brittany is off frolicking around Florida (lucky girl!) so I missed her tonight. It was a treat having Tiff and Lori over...I'll take any of the Firkus women when I get a chance! (And Kenny too! hehe)

The Long Thread

In perusing the web tonight, I came across this fabulous site for 50 crafts for kids.....I think I'll have to knock a few off the list with the boys! They look rather interesting, and fun!

Just...Ethan!

Just hangin' in the grass...

After Sasha dropped her stick on his toe....

Ahh...all better, I think.
