An Exciting Rainy Day

Rain, rain don't go away. Let Ethan's imagination come out and play! Wow! Today was quite the day for Ethan's imagination to run wild. It was our first day back from being gone for 8 days. He was so excited about seeing all of his toys again and of course watching Monsters Inc. again from an 8 day withdrawal. It was the first thing he asked to do this morning when he woke up. Since it was pouring with rain today I did not want to go anywhere. Ethan was completely fine with that. He wanted to dress up as any character he could get his hands on. He started out as one of the monsters from Monsters Inc. You know the one that keeps getting touched by human articles and has to constantly get decontaminated? Here he is as that monster with a sock stuck to his back just like the monster had in the movie. He even walked around the house exactly how that monster walks. He was so proud of himself that he "made" this costume all by himself. Next he was Mickey Mouse, then a dragon, then Bob the Builder.
Then, he was Mr. Incredible. I have been thinking about making him a Mr. Incredible suit for a while now since he wears his "Mr. Acredable" boots all the time. So I took some felt and some tape and made him a Mr. Incredible suit. He was beside himself. He was so excited when I put it on him that he started shaking!
He wanted an action shot too!
When he finally calmed down he got the movie out and looked at all the pictures on the case. He looked at me all sad and said, "Ethan need orange seatbelt (that is what he calls belts that hold your pants up)." Then a couple minutes later he said in an even sadder voice, "Ethan no black unaware." I'll get right on that.

Seriously, your little man has got to be the cutest EVER. I was showing matt the pics and he got the hugest smile on his face...he said it took him back to being a kid and dressing up as superman all the time with his neighbor...apparently it always involved red rain boots and "unaware" on the outside of his pants. YIPES! Do all boys start out the same in life? Super excited about being superheros and wearing "unawares"? What a lucky mommy you are - it must be so fun to see the excitement on his precious little face :)

Hope you guys are doing well!
