This is the story of me, Ethan Maxwell, the newborn son of Andrew and Sylvia. It will follow my journey through life from my Mommy's tummy to my birth on May 17, 2007 and beyond. Then Daddy will make it my personal diary for family and friends. Hope you enjoy the ride with me.

My Stand-In, "Shane"

Hey everyone, it's Ethan Maxwell here with the latest update.

First, here's an updated picture of Me inside Mommy's belly. Man, are these quarters getting cramped! Hi Mom!!


Mommy and Daddy have been very busy getting ready for my arrival (it is supposed to be May 20, but maybe I'll trick them and come earlier?). They are so excited/nervous about me joining the family, that they went out and got a "stand-in" of me to practice with. Really though, he is being used to get my brothers Kona and Zeus used to having me, Ethan Maxwell around so they won't get all freaked out. My stand-in is named Shane, and Daddy took pictures of him checking out all my new stuff. Here they are:

Here's Shane relaxing in my crib with some wedges to keep him secure. Dude, DIG those pants, are those mine you're wearing? Creepy!

Shane on my changing table with Mommy and Daddy practicing diapering...EASY don't forget the butt cream guys!

Shane on my swing...looks cool. This is right next to Daddy's desk so he can watch after me. And I can practice launcing my breakfast at the height of each swing!

Shane in my Play Yard....spacious! What's with the naked flying bears?!?!

Shane on the Play Yard changing station where Daddy will wipe my stinky butt!

Check out my SWEET ride! Hey Bud, don't get too comfy in there! Chicks will DIG me!

Daddy also wanted Lil' Shane to help him practice around the house...here he is helping with some electrical work.

Here's Shane helping Mommy with the laundry...good job Dude, those are some white looking whites!

Shane helping Daddy with washing the cars...
Okay, enough of the kidding around. Daddy has a pretty warped sense of humor according to Mommy, and no doll was harmed in the making of this blog!

Well, I am only a month away from making my World Debut. Check back to see when the BIG DAY comes!

Till next time...back to tumbling!
