I am feeling a serious lack of narrative finesse these days, so I will simply share some pictures of the cute one and call it a night.
ready for his close up...
On our walk today; hard to believe this is the same path I used to take for walks when he was a newborn in his stroller.
Now he runs...
and laughs...
Why is my child drawn to the ghetto-mobiles at the local park? This would so not pass inspection...
Please note the steering wheel, on the ground.
Realizing he can't drive the red steering wheel-less car, he seeks out this hot pink number. Sadly, it too is sans steering wheel. Clearly the park is experiencing a rash of steering wheel vandalism and theft. 
Ethan points out a real car driving by. I bet that one has a steering wheel, mama...
Ethan moments before coming down the tube slide on his tummy...
Ethan, moments after coming down the tube slide on his tummy. Loved the slide; was not such a fan of the face plant he took at the end of the ride. Little man got a mouth and nose full of grainy wet sand and gravel, and considering he's a picky eater (and he prefers his nostrils gravel-free, go figure), he was NOT pleased. This picture was taken after Mama attempted to de-gravel him to the best of her ability. It only pissed him off more. Shocking, I know... 
All better, and back on that damn hoopty (he has managed to replace the steering wheel, the mechanical genius)...
This ride needs no steering wheel....this is Ethan, mid-"WEEEEEE"

Seriously adorable. He really does look like a "little man" hiking along the path.
So cute!! That was hilarious.
Isn't it sad when they get a mouthful of playground cushioning material? I'll never forget the trembling mulch-covered lower lip, the "why did you do that?" expression. Poor little kids.
So cute! Love your disclaimer that you tried to help him before you took the crying pic-- I am guilty of the picture first; help second, myself.
I am so jealous of the park-- we are getting another foot of snow as I type this.
Hoopty...I am laughing so hard right now. And what is it with playground cars -- ours has one like that too!
I am so jealous you are having playground weather. We're getting another 5 inches of snow tonight. Jack cried when we took him to the park last week in the snow -- it was so deep he couldn't walk and he just sobbed, "Hooooomeeeee" until we picked him up.
There is so much expression in his eyes. He's absolutely adorable!
Such a cutie! It's amazing how quickly he's grown. We're going to get another big snow. Seriously reconsidering relocating from the midwest!
He is so adorable Sarah!
