Such a sweetheart! I'm glad you posted so many pictures. They're all so cute. Erik did a great job on the picture with you. Hope Ethan will let me give him lots of hugs when we get home. I'll have eleven months to make up for.

I have not gotten on to read blogs forever- these pictures are amazing! What a sweet little guy! It never ceases to amaze me how fast they change after their newborn pictures, so glad you were able to capture such beautiful pictures!
