All about 'E'!!

The last post was just about our little Daisy so we decided to tell you all that's going on with our little Ethan. He has been growing and learning a lot of new things the past few weeks and just seems to be getting smarter everyday!!! We're so excited to see what new thing he has learned and what little thing he is going to do to make us smile/laugh! Last week Sharifa had to go to her postpardum appointment and had to leave Ethan with a friend since Steve wasn't home to watch Ethan. When Steve went to pick Ethan up from his friend's house Ethan was playing with Thomas', Ethan's friend, Buzz Light-year. So Steve decided to go to Brigham and get Ethan his own Buzz because Ethan is starting to be kinder and nicer to his parents! Ethan just loves his Buzz and we just can't seem to hide Buzz well enough that Ethan won't find him. He is starting to say his letters and knows 1-10 (he can say 5 and 9, but he knows all the numbers!!). His laugh is getting to be contagious and we just love to hear him laugh 'cause it gets us laughing with him! Well, here are a few pictures of the little man himself! We hope you enjoy!

Here is Ethan with all his pine cones!

This last weekend we were able to go up to Idaho Falls and see Grandma & Grandpa McClaskey!! We were very spoiled and got to do lots of fun activities!!! On Saturday we went to the park and played on all the different toys. Sunday we went to church and spent the day at home (grandparents'). Monday, before we left for Utah, Grandma took us to lunch at a very cool and fun place called Leo's!!! We had such a great time with them and are grateful to have such great grandparents!!

Let's play "Where in the Doll house is Ethan Micheal Phillips?"! If you look very closely you will be able to find him (hint: look in the lower right window)!! He loved climbing in the house through the front door!!!!
A Bob the Builder puzzle he made with Grandma!
A Monsters' Inc. puzzle he made with Grandma too!!! He would always call "Boo" Baby D, which is what he calls his little sis!

Playing with Grandma and having lots of fun!Testing the toys at Leo's and loving every minute!Taking a little break to have some food and sodas!!

Get back to the playing. We had a hard time getting him out of there so that we could travel all the way home!!

ONE MONTH OLD!!!!!

Can you guys believe that it's been a month since our little Daisy was born? Well, it has been a whole month and today we took Daisy to the doctor and found out that she is doing so very great!! She is 8pounds 3 ounces, which puts her in the 25%, she is also 20inches long, also puts her in the 25%!! The last time we were in to see the doctor she was only in the 5% and 10%, so she is growing really well and eating good too!! We can't believe how the time has past so quickly! Here's an up to date pic!

Easter 2010!!!

We hope that you all were able to have a very happy Easter Sunday this past Sunday. We were able to have a very happy and enjoyable Easter with our little family and our extended family. Ethan was able to color eggs and really enjoyed coloring them! Daisy didn't color any eggs, but she was involved with the activities. We were able to get lots of pictures of Ethan enjoying the holiday season. One thing we want you all to know is that we are very grateful for the Savior and we know it's because of him we are able to live again. We are grateful to be able to make mistakes and be forgiven of them because of the atoning sacrifice of our Savior! We hope that you all remember the reason for the season and we are grateful for all of your friendships! Here are some pics.!
