Ethan is 5 Months

Ethan reached the 5 month mark on April 12.  He can now roll from tummy to back and from back to tummy.  He can take his lolly out and can manage to put it back in his mouth.  Ethan still loves to laugh and is working on being able to sit up.  Olivia and Ethan enjoy "talking" to one another.  This is especially noticeable at night when Olivia has been tucked in her bed and should be sleeping.  As I get Ethan ready for bed he squeaks and squawks in high pitched tones and Olivia echoes the same noises from behind her closed bedroom.  They are my two little song birds.

 It is fun watching Ethan as he grows each day.  Another milestone worth noting is Ethan's ability to grab, reach, tug and pull.  He loves to grab my spoon while I am eating, my phone when I am talking and my hair whenever he feels like it.

Although the post title is quite telling the video leaves no room for questions.  This is what we do for entertainment.

In other news...upon doing a little research I found that this is the 100th posting of the blog!  Happy 100th Post!  In other other news we are three days away from knowing where Dennis will be serving as pastor for an indefinite amount of time.  When I started the blog two years ago a friend mentioned the name of the blog "Matyas in Missouri" and asked me what I would do if we get a Call out of the state.  Interesting question.  Time will tell.

Happy Easter!

Olivia's pink egg is empty and so is the tomb.  He is not here, he is risen!  Jesus has risen, he has risen indeed!  Alleluia!
