Aw Grasshopper!!

Wow it has been a month since my last post. I have just not felt like getting on the computer after getting home. I had all most 300 emails to go through. Of course most of them were junk.

The fam is doing well. Ethan's mouth looks great. We hit a milestone about a week ago. He can now drink out of a straw. We were celebrating when he finally got the hang of it. He does make a sucking sound though that really gets on my nerves if it is too quite. He is trying to repeat everything that we say to him. He has his speech evaluation on July 25. I will be so happy to start therapy. I got to change my hours at work so that I can get home earlier. I know that I will have to work with him at home.

Here are pictures Hannah's 4th birthday. It was Hannah Montana of course. We bought her a guitar. I think we might get her into lessons in the future. There are pictures of her and Ethan playing in the water. Ethan likes drinking the water. Then there are pictures of our 4th celebration. Ethan was in awe of the fireworks. He was not scared of them at all. Finally there are pics of Ethan's new hair cut. Greg started cutting it with the razors and messed it up. The razor needed to be oiled. After he oiled them he shaved it all off. It makes me think about the old t.v. show "Kung Fu". I always remember the monk calling the little boy Grasshopper. So, Ethan's new nickname is Grasshopper.
