ethan spider has mastered "no." from closing his eyes and shaking his head vigorously to holding his hand up and saying "no no no no no no no no!"

he also knows what it means to share...as in "share [insert desired toy/food/drink] with me."

we got him the busy ball bopper for christmas. now ethan loves to dance whenever music is playing. but balls popping out of a toy while music is playing...he went nuts. dancing and squealing with delight. he and isaiah were both pretty excited about it.

other random things:

• diego is "go go."
• his sippy cup is often "gug." don't ask why, because he can say "juice."
• he babbles incessantly and pauses every now and then to allow you to respond.
• he climbs behind you when you're sitting in a chair and gives you a hug around your neck.
• he says "welcome" instead of "thank you."
• his nose is a faucet of snot. perhaps this is a great venue for a new mommy invention.
• ethan is not a picky eater, but he does not like chicken nuggets.
• one of his favorite toys is the phone (the real one). he likes to leave it off the hook and wait for the obnoxious beeping or the operator lady, if you'd like to make a call, please hang up...
• he learned to jump last month. now he jumps all the time. currently enjoys jumping off the couch and chaise. awesome.
