Ethan's naps

A very tired boy at 4:32pm today.

Same time of day in July.

Does it look like he is giving me the finger?

More silly family members

The artist gene is our the family. Thanh and Thao both have an artist sole.

Light weight drinker,

this is what a little does to my brother.

Makes him wanna dance!

My sister Thanh looks great in everything.

Look how she rocks the apron.

Our extended silly family.

Aidan is cloud watching. Ethan is swatting the branches of a cherry tree with his stick.

Mr. and Mrs. Bitting

( The day after we were engaged)

I love this guy.

Not only for his great genes that created our children but for everything that he is:

Handsome

Honest

Devoted.

Thank you Kyle for making me a Mrs. Bitting!

Extreme Bikers

What's with all the padding?

Aidan and Ethan think they are ready to jump the bikes off a ramp.

They asked if Santa would bring them a bike ramp.

"Santa, if you are listening, please make it a very small ramp made of plastic and an allowance for the snack machine in the emergency room. Many thanks. " -Mom

Little life

Dear Little Life,

I thought I felt you wiggling around a couple days ago but I was not quite sure. You seem to be most active when I am trying to settle down for the night. Daddy put his hands on my tummy last night and felt movement too. There's no mistake it was you. We can't wait to meet you little one:)

Love,

Your Mama & Papa

A special birthday indeed

Muscles and a farmers tan, that's what our three year old is made of. Ethan had a family party with special guests Grandma and Grandpa Bitting along with Aunt Thanh and Uncle Brian. They always travel the distance to be with Ethan whenever possible.

Being three is our family comes with alot of Independence. Like the free will to decorate his own birthday cake. Fabulous Ethan!

Notice BIG brother Aidan is no where near the great task of blowing out the candle. Ethan did it all by himself.

Aidan picked out a couple play dough presses for Ethan. One was an ice cream press which couldn't be more appropriate for Ethan. Aidan also made Ethan a very nice birthday card. See?

Grandma and her boys.

Three generations of ice cream loving Bitting men.

The unveil of a grand birthday gift.

Three years old. Ethan has a big year ahead. Preschool, and being a BIG brother and a little brother at the same time, so many responsibilities for such a little guy.
