We're in OHIO!!!

Ethan and I have really been needing a vacation, so we decided to go to Ohio to visit my sister Sarah and her family. We got here Tuesday the 17th, so we haven't even been here a week yet, but we're already having so much fun! We left our house at 7:30 am, we got to the airport in Houston at 9:30, and our plane boarded at 9:45 am, so we had just enough time to check our bags and walk onto the plane...whew! Needless to say, I was a bit stressed about missing the plane and traveling with a baby, but Ethan was great! He kept waving to people on the plane, saying hi, and then would make his funny face for them (if you haven't seen it, just wait...there are lots of pictures!) He watched Baby Einstein half of the time, so that really helped. We fly back to Texas on March 9th, so we've got plenty of time for more fun...and hopefully we can keep y'all up to speed with more blogging.

We let the boys ride in this little car at the grocery store. I thought Ethan would really like it because there's a steering wheel and a little tv inside with Bob the Builder cartoons...but he just kept trying to climb out the front windshield. Oh well!

It's so cold here and Ethan doesn't own any real coats, just jackets, so Roman let him borrow his big puffy coat. He looks so funny!

Ethan tries to smile for the camera...I love it!

This is Ethan's funny face! He squints his eyes, wrinkles up his nose, and smiles as big as he can...it's my favorite face! He does it aaaaaall the time now. Pretty much anytime he meets someone new he turns on the charm and shows them his funny face.

Ethan got some new big boy jeans when we went to Target the other day. I thought his outfit was so cute and grown up, I just had to take a picture.

Roman and Ethan are just 6 weeks apart (Roman is older), and they've been getting along so well. I'm so glad that they're friends and don't mind sharing their toys. This was Ethan's first time to share the bathtub and he loved it! Roman taught him that if you splash like crazy, it gets even more fun!

Ethan looked so cute today in his fancy church clothes!

He was trying to make his funny face again!

This video is of Roman and Ethan at the mall. They have this really cool play area that has lots of toys to climb on and crawl under...and it's free! This spaceship is obviously their favorite part.

Thanks so much to Jonathan for driving us all the way to Houston. I know that was a long time to be in the car. We're missing everybody, especially Little Jerry, (Ethan's favorite dog), but we're so grateful to be able to spend some time with the Lunts.
