Firsts

We have been treasuring a lot of "firsts" in the past few months. I'm not talking about firsts with the twins. I'm talking about our leader of the pack- Ethan. Ethan, the lucky first-born, will always pave the way for us as parents, and prepare us for the future x2. Here are some of the most exciting "firsts" we've celebrated recently:

-Last month Ethan started writing his own name! He signs in each day for preschool...

-Ethan is swimming very well, with his head under water! A few months ago he was somewhat fearful of the water and would never put his face in the water, but now he's a confident swimmer and loves going to swim class.

-Last weekend Ethan went skiing for the first time! A few weeks ago he and Nick went sledding and afterward announced that he thought it would be fun to try skiing. Last Saturday Ethan had a ton of fun taking a ski lession and then skiing with Nick. They both had a blast and Ethan keeps asking when he can go again.

Here he is rock'n down the slope. Pretty soon it'll be time for a family trip back to the Rocky Mountains!
