Happy Independence Day!

Ethan had a very fun 4th of July this year! We went to Grandma and Grandpa's camper up on Lake Holcombe. Ethan had a great time playing with cousin Victor and mom had fun hanging out with Aunt Jenny and Aunt Michelle - and grandma and grandpa too!



We went for a boat ride! Ethan liked it OK - except for his life jacket. Mostly he walked around the boat and wanted snacks. He really liked it when mom or dad would hold him on our lap and sing to him.
Here he is helping Grandpa Mike drive the boat! That's a pretty big responsibility!
What could be better than corn on the cob for dinner? Ethan loved eating it straight off the cob.
At night we went to see some fireworks. Victor enjoyed the experience, but Ethan - not so much. While we were waiting for the fireworks to start, all he wanted to do was run WILD in the dark through the big crowd of people - very stressful for mom! Any time mom or grandma would chase him and then pick him up he would throw a tantrum. Then, when the fireworks finally started at 10:30 - he SCREAMED - so, he and mom immediately packed up and headed home.
Here's a shot of Ethan content and smiling before the chaos at the fireworks began.
