Mamarazzi Monday

Out in the internet world there is a term for Mom's like me: "Mamarazzi" :-) So what does Ethan do at home during the day when Daddy is at work?






















We sit outside in the sunshine and watch the birds and ducks while listening to the song of nature...






















Well, maybe not every day, but sometimes! However a more realistic picture of our day is this...






























I was thinking about how I hadn't had a moment to even think about blogging this week since Ethan's been busy getting into everything when I started to realize how frustrated I was feeling. I figured the best way to de-stress would be to laugh at what he was up to and sit back and take a few photos (in between stopping him for getting into too much trouble that is!). Ethan's favorite things to do are stand, grab a stuffed animal to stand with/take along for the mischief adventure, and crawl around the house trying to get into the same things over and over again. :-) And when said things have been removed from where he can get into them he either tries again to get them in their new place or he finds something new that I previously thought was "baby proof". 9 month olds are tiring fun!













































































































































































































































Ethan's two favorite accomplices:






















Carl the Penguin















Little Bear (My bear from childhood)

Not pictured is Ethan yanking on the vertical blinds and pulling paper shreds out of the paper shredder bin, but those are also two majorly fun things that he likes to do! The paper shredder is relocatable, unfortunately Ethan is good at getting around the obstacles that I set up to keep him from getting to the vertical blinds.

When Daddy comes home he gets to share in the fun as well!

























































It's hard not to love this boy even if he is a handful!
