Vitamin E Deficiency

I have discovered that I have a major vitamin 'E' deficiency. Well, more like an imbalance. I am getting plenty, if not an overdose, of vitamin E1, but hardly any of the equally important vitamin E29. Have I seen a doctor about this you ask? No, actually that's the problem... Don't worry, I'll be okay. It just makes me pretty tired and irritable. And when I do get any vitamin E29 it seems like I don't take advantage of it, because I am distracted by all the vitamin E1 in my system. I'm really looking forward to this next week of vacation where I'll be able to dilute some of my E1 and concentrate on E29 a bit.

(I guess an overdose of E1 can't be too bad a thing... he's pretty charming.)

P.S.Thanks for the Christmas clothes Grandma Ursic!

Reading Time

Ethan got some blankets and snuggled himself in the chair yesterday. He was being pretty funny, so I tried to catch a minute on video. I need an invisible camera so he doesn't get distracted. I love how he gives the book a hug and then pretends to read it. So cute! if I do say so myself... :)

Ethan Tree

Ethan looks so excited every time he goes for our Christmas tree. I feel bad every time I have to tell him "don't touch". So last night I pulled out our little tree (courtesy of Grandma Ursic) and Ethan and I decorated it with his toys. He got such a kick out of it I think he forgot about the big one. We'll see how long that lasts.

That's why we had him!

Yesterday after church Eric found Ethan finally doing something productive. Ethan found the mop in the laundry room and dragged it over to the entryway to clean. This is quite impressive considering that I hardly ever clean the floors when he's awake. I didn't think he even knew what that mop was for.

Go Cougars!

I was surprised to find out just how many of my friends here in Spokane are Ute fans. So I feel kind of bad posting about how GREAT the game was! And I just want you to know that it is all Eric's doing. He single handedly (or footedly) won the game for BYU with his awesomely loud bleacher stomping during the Utah plays.

Thanks Uncle Steve for the great tickets!

This is a bad picture, but it's the best angle we could get with the cougar. It was super crowded.Eric wanted to rush the field, but we were trapped in by the old folks surrounding our seats.

Thanksgiving

Sorry, I've fallen behind with the blogging. I just haven't been feeling it lately. Ethan's sick... again. And when he's not happy... nobody gets any computer time.

We went to Utah for Thanksgiving. Ethan and I were there a week, but Eric just flew down for the weekend.

My brother-in-law Ryan had the great idea of making festive hats to get us in the Thanksgiving mood. They turned out really cute.

"why'd you steal my land mommy?"

I think Ryan was a little surpriesd at how willing we were to wear silly hats for dinner.

Ethan loves spending time with Uncy Sam. He cried when Sam left the room and followed him everywhere. Sam was great with him.

It was freezing, but we had a lot of fun playing at the park across the street.

It was fun strewing Grandma's kitchen utensils around the house for a change.
