No crying over spilled.... tea

Today is absolutely GORGEOUS! I met some other mama's and kiddies at the park today and we had fun. Silly me, I forgot my camera. For those of you who really know me, you know this made me real sad. I was hoping to get some good pictures of my cutie having a blast. Oh well, I decided to go into the archives and pull out some pictures you haven't seen. I didn't have to go too far back when I found some that made me laugh!
A week or so ago Matt and I were sitting in the living room eating dinner. He had a HUGE plastic cup full of sweet tea on the end table next to the couch. I saw Ethan eyeing it and told Matt to move it so he wouldn't go grab it and spill it. So Matt moved it and wedged the cup between him and the sofa.... thinking it was safe. You know where this is going. Ethan came up and grabbed the cup and it spilled EVERYWHERE. All over Matt and our couch. It poured down and was pooling under the cushions. So we took the cushions off and wiped them down and cleaned up all the tea. We left the cushions off the couch so they could dry. That's when we saw Ethan crawl up and pull himself up onto the couch with no cushions. He thought he was all that. He started walking back and forth on the couch. So Matt and I moved the cushions in front of the couch on the floor just in case he fell, it would catch him. WELL, he thought those were meant for a different reason. He walked to the edge of the couch and jumped off! How brave! So then we lined the edges of the cushions with pillows because he was jumping so hard and rolling off. He had a BLAST! The boy has so many toys, but this is what he chose for his entertainment. He did it for 15 minutes at least. Crawling up on the couch, jumping off, then crawling back up. Back and forth, back and forth! We loved watching him laugh and have so much fun!
Anyhow, we're off to Charlotte to visit my brother and his family. It is my niece's birthday party this weekend. I am so excited to see them. She is hilarious and so cute! I can't believe all these kids around in my life are growing up too fast! Slow down, ok?!!!!
