Christmas!

Trying to take a family picture...

At Grandma Sharps house. As always Kaylin has a sheepy.

Cute little Ethan man. This picture was taken the day after he was diagnosed with pneumonia. What a trooper.

Opening presents!

Always loving picture taking!

Utah Trip

7 months old

We took a trip to Utah for cousin Jason's wedding. We stayed with Aunt Emily for a week with Grandma Sharp too. It was so much fun! We saw, Uncle Nathan, Aunt Breezy, cousin Devon and Stephanie. Aunt Meagan and Grandpa Sharp came for the weekend too. Ethan loved being outside (almost as much as Kaylin) and one day he fell alseep on a blanket on a warm fall day. He got sick with a cold the first few days and made it impossible for me to sleep through the night, but like always, just before we came home, he was sleeping great! He loved being babysat by his cousin Tyler. They took baths together and Tyler told his daddy he loved giving Ethan kisses. So cute!

6 months old

Ethan learned how to sit up this month. He loves being able to see everything and play better with toys. He is loosing his hair and curl, but growing in is some blonde! He loves to held and will let you know when he wants food! He is an eating machine! You could eat anything in front of him and then will throw it all up afterwards and then want even more! Aunt Meagan came to visit this month too. He loves her almost as much as mom!

Ethan loved his first try in the Johnny Jump Up. He also still loves being wrapped like a mummy! Grandma Clarke calls him "tamale man".

3 months old

Ethan is a happy baby. He loves to laugh and smile, especially at his sister. His hair is curly and loves to stick up! He's always watching something (usually Kaylin) and his eyes are always wide open. He also loves sleeping in the swing and is the most adorable thing when he's asleep! (aren't all kids?)

Cute Little Sleeper

3 weeks old

A kiss from Kaylin

Bringing him home

Meeting Kaylin for the first time. She was in love with him. Kept trying to make sure he wanted his passy.

Who is this little thing???

First Bath at home. Needless to say he did not like it!

BUt he calmed down after we wrapped him up. He sure likes to be wrapped.


A tired mommy and a 10 day old Ethan.

Jaundice in the NICU

He had to wear purple eye patches in the incubator under Bili Lights. The Jaundice was gone in 2 days.

He had an oxygen tube, a feeding tube and an IV.

A Baby Boy

First time holding him. He was 7 days old. Still wating through a tube, but he didn't need all his IV's. Still on oxygen though.

Sweet Ethan boy. He was so sweet. While all the other babies would cry and fuss, he was so calm and quiet. His nurses loved him.
Ethan Chase was born March 1, 2005 at 3:35 pm. He was also born 5 weeks early due to high blood pressure and kidney problems. But he wasn't as lucky as his sister. He stayed in the NICU for 10 days until he could come home. He had a concaved chest from pulling in on his lungs to breathe, labored breathing, underdeveloped lungs with fluid in them and couldn't breathe on his own. It was a very hard time for us, but we knew he was being taken care of properly.
