a video and some pictures!

I've been procrastinating posting any pictures, because I've felt like I need to put up everything since I last posted. Ha. I'm just going to post a few recent pictures now and then one day when I'm feeling very productive I'll post the very cutest pictures taken during my blogging break.

I'm promising pictures in return for a favor. Please go to this website and watch Brett being famous in his band's new video release! It is so very awesome. Each time I watch it, I like it better! So please go watch the video and then tell all your friends to go watch it too!

And now that you have done that, here is my beautiful baby!




I can't believe I'm such a slacker. I haven't really taken many pictures since Christmas! Yikes, it's time to start snapping again.

journaling

I was talking with a friend of mine who told me to start writing a journal about everything that Ethan is doing, so that I can give it to him when he's older. I was ready to run out to a stationary store and get a pretty new book to write in when I remembered that I have a horde of cute little journal books in my office. And then I was reading an article in my parenting magazine about powerful Mom bloggers and I remembered my sweet little blog! It's the perfect answer to an Ethan journal/photo album/whatever I want it to be. Hooray!

Currently, Ethan is asleep in the room that has my external hard drive with all the recent photos on it, but never fear! Pictures will be coming shortly.

Ethan is so big now! He's cutting his first teeth (two at once). He is cruising around, standing for a second or two on his own, growling like a car or motorcycle all day long. We got him some little cars to play with and he pushes them around going, "grrrr, grrrr". He waves bye-bye to people, but only after they are already gone. He has 8 signs: cracker, milk, more, finish, dog, cereal, bye, water/book/somethingerother (we don't know quite what he means with this one) and 5 words: banana, Mama, Daddy, bye-bye, up. He is the sweetest, most well-behaved baby in the world. Ethan is always smiling and laughing. He jams on the guitars and bass with Daddy every day, singing and strumming the strings.

We are happy and well and I'll post some pictures soon so that everyone in the world can see my beautiful baby!

family history

My parents' friends filmed our family back in 1991. This is great!

christmas delight

Brett and I made a couple of Christmas albums a few years ago. We are trying to scrape some Christmas money together and so are selling the CDs/MP3s. If you are interested in Christmas, french horn, guitar, and 8 Betsys singing simultaneously...this is for you!

We have 11 songs (give or take) on the CD and we would like $5 for each CD. If you would like only a few of the songs, I could figure a per song price as well.

You can sample some of the songs on my myspace. Let me know if you're interested!

cell phone pictures

I missed these in my last post. Brett took both of them from his phone, so they were in a different file.
