Ethan's 3rd Birthday!

I'm slightly behind in my blogging, but I did another birthday cake a couple of weeks ago.  This time it was for my second born, Ethan.  Ethan has such a cute little personality.  As a baby, I couldn't have had two different kids.  Timmy was full of personality, very smiley and bubbly.  Ethan was so even keeled.  He still didn't spend much time sleeping, but he was pretty easy going.  He was always fascinated with whatever Timmy was up to.  You could tell that he just couldn't wait to get up and follow Timmy around.  It didn't take long enough for him to be up and around after his big brother, just a few steps ahead of him in development.

Ethan enjoys life to the fullest!  He's really messy, and I think that's so cute because he just enjoys life that way!  He didn't walk until he was about 15 mon. old, but man, that boy could crawl!  I had an oooold pair of black jeans that I would put on him to go outside.  He would crawl just about as fast as Timmy would run, through leaves, mud, you name it, it wasn't going to stop Ethan.

Now, Ethan is full of personality!  He laughs and giggles very easily.  Everything is funny to him, especially at bedtime, ha ha!  He's also very tender and loves hugs and snuggles.  When Matt and I took him out for dinner on his birthday, he asked to sit by Daddy.  He kept giving Matt hugs and sitting right up against him the whole dinner.  He likes back scratches.  He LOVES his big brother Timmy.  I love sitting and talking with him.  He's very exact about what he wants to tell me, but he's never in a hurry. And I think has the most adorable blue eyes ever! (Well, really, all my boys do. ;))

Ethan couldn't decide what he wanted for his birthday cake.  First it was Buzz Lightyear.  Then it was a Pirate Ship.  Then he saw Timmy's Mack cake and wanted that.  Then for a few weeks, he went back and forth between the whole lot of them. Finally, he very firmly decided that he wanted Mack, just like his big brother!  So here's Ethan, with his very own Mack.  Happy Birthday Big Boy!  I love you!
