Look who's sitting up on his own!





He did this for the first time on my birthday last Monday. What a great present. He does just great until he gets really excited and kicks his legs and waves his arms and loses his balance.

Woah, I'm way behind!

But there's a reason I'm so behind. I've been working my tail off getting my independent study classes done. And guess what? I FINISHED!!! I took my finals last Tuesday. Yay. I can officially graduate now. Hallelujah!

So these are pictures of an excursion we made back in the middle of June. There's this cool park in the middle of the city that is like this overgrown jungle. I was dumb and had flip-flops on, so we couldn't do much exploring, but it was still pretty. And Ethan LOVES his snugli. He doesn't care where he is, as long as he's sitting up front with a great view.

Do I have a mark on my face?

It really hurts.

Right here.

Not here,

or here so much,

but right here.

Nope, ship-shape.
We were a little slow cutting Ethan's nails...

Fun with Grandpa

What a cute little egghead.

Coldplay is yummy.

Everything's up to date in Kansas City

So we've been living in Kansas City for about 3 weeks now. Ross was accepted as an intern at one of the "big four" accounting firms, KPMG, this summer. They have offices all over the nation, but he's working at the one in downtown Kansas City. I'm so proud of him since he was chosen as 1 of 6 interns out of 100+ interviewees. So far he's really enjoyed it. I'm particularly jealous this week because he is blocks away from Disneyland out in California right now doing "training." They are renting out Knottsberry Farm for one evening this week. Training? Please.

Anyway, we're staying with some friends who knew my family in Manhattan. It's really the perfect situation for us. They've been great. So far we really like the ward and area we live in. And I'm not so lonely by myself all day!

Ethan is growing like a weed. He is currently into the following activities:

- Singing and cooing to all ceiling fans. He is extremely vocal.
- Giggling as he realizes he's grabbed onto something.
- Cuddling with his mom.
- Grabbing his toes.
- Spitting up over 10 times a day. (This is NO exaggeration!)
- Pushing himself up from his tummy.
- Being tickled on his feet and stomach.
- Holding his hands together, like he's being very thoughtful.
- Furiously chewing on his hands.
