Random Things with Ethan

Ethan has been singing Jesus Loves Me sometimes.  Recently he started singing “Yes, Jesus is God, Yes, Jesus is God.” to the tune of Jesus Love Me.  Gary was very proud of his theological correctness.  He asked Ethan if he wanted to be a theologian when he grows up, and Ethan responded, “No, I want to be a cowboy.”Ethan has gotten more into the building phase in the last few months.  He used all of the soft blocks to make this creation.  He usually tears things down pretty quickly after building them, so I took a picture first. However, I was able to persuade him to leave it up until Daddy got home from the office so he could see it too.Ethan has been able to get the keys, put them in the door, and unlock it for several months. He is still working on getting the door completely shut. It’s a quirky door and needs the handle moved several different directions just to shut it. Notice him sporting my boots. He likes wearing Mommy’s and Daddy’s shoes.We bought a bag full of cars from someone moving (the same people we got the train table from). The funny thing is when we were getting the cars, Julie kept putting cars in the bag, and I asked her and Gary if Ethan really needed that many cars. Julie, having 2 boys, quickly said, “Yes!” We are gradually giving Ethan cars, and it seems like the more cars he has the more he is playing with them.  My mom made this quilt and gave it to Ethan this past fall.  He is getting more into using it now too.
