Our boy, Snaggle

After much attempt, Ethan finally got rid of one of his top teeth. Due to this, he is officially dubbed with the title of "snaggle". We constantly make fun of him, but he's good about it and laughs along with us. Took a look at the E man! Now he's gotta pull out that other one and get rid of his nickname!

No, this isn't the marathon you were thinking about when you read the title... this is Ethan's way to prepare himself for the new Harry Potter movie! For some insane reason, he has been obsessing over the movies. It started with one little innocent preview of Half-Blood Prince, and he took off at 100mph running his mouth about "having to see it!"

So my mom told him that she would let him see it- but only if we saw all the other ones first to get what's going on. Ethan was all for it. So, to count, this past month we have this record:

Sorcerer's Stone: 1

Chamber of Secrets: 6

Prisoner of Azkaban: 4

Goblet of Fire: 2

Order of the Pheonix: 1

We don't have Order of the Pheonix, but got to watch it over in Heber Valley one night. Ethan is LOVING this! When Tal got back from BYU Baseball Camp, he awarded Ethan with Sorcerer's Stone. He was up on cloud nine!I felt like the posters for the 5th and 6th movies were a bit dramatic for the blog...


So we started out "official" marathon.
We have already watched the first 2 and now onto the 3rd.
Wish me luck!

Discovery

Today I was working on a Pedigree chart for science when my mom called grandma and asked for names. After receiving some, we looked back and realized that one of the names was Louis E. Lamb, pronounced "Lewis". That happens to be Ethan's exact name (we're actually not sure what the middle name actually is, but that's for another time)... anyway I thought that was pretty funny enough to share. Ethan has a namesake!

Abouts: Lewis Ethan

Since Ethan's birthday is today, I thought we might as well tell you seven things about this little hunk that you may not know:

1. His life is revolved around playing baseball. Seriously. His dream, his direction, and his motive is pretty revolved around the spectacles of baseball. Of course, you can't deny his inevitable love for all sports, but if I were specifically going to pick out one, it's baseball. When we were in the South, he was trained by his brother, who is continuing to raise him in a baseball world. He ended up pitching and striking out nine-year-olds, and once a eighth-grader. He is very, VERY competitive.

2. Camping is one of his favorite activities to do. Whenever we announce a camping trip (one that we aren't hosting, because of course, we are new to the whole "camping in Utah" thing...just wait!) he is the first one in and out of the car, and is always ecstatic about fishing, riding four-wheelers, playing baseball....ANYTHING! He just loves to go camping, and is always the first to call the tent.

3. He's short. Very, very short. When he was younger, we got him tested and took him to numerous doctors because of his small size. He is still pretty short for his age, but is continually growing and isn't afraid to face people taller than him. For such a small guy, he's got a HUGE heart and competitive streak.

4. He loves Stars Wars and Indiana Jones. He's obsessed with seeing and watching the movies, getting the action figures and toys that go alongside. For Halloween, he's going to be Indiana Jones, something we aren't sure how to dress through.

5. He's really good with kids. Whenever he sees a little baby or toddler, etc, he always asks to hold them or is very nice about playing with them. He turns into such a sweet little boy whenever a kid's around. Although he is one himself, he somehow turns a light on inside his heart and becomes such a great, cute little baby-sittin' boy.

6. He is fast. When I say this, I mean just a tenth of a second behind Talmage...which is crazy insane! For his age and height, he can beat whoever you want him to. Weightlessly flying through the air. That's our E-Man!

7. He can't take a loss. So that's why he's a winner.

We love you, Lewis! Happy 7th birthday!

Where Did Time Go?

This little studmuffin is seven years old....where on Earth did time go?

Thanks, Michele!

Happy Birthday, Lewis Ethan!

To celebrate being Seven on October 5th (tomorrow), Ethan and his cousins, Sam and Jon, partied hard at Jump-On-It along with Tal and Max. The Rose boys, the Lambs, and Jon Neeleman are three great kiddos! Afterwards, they hit McDonalds and... well, just see for yourself.
