I am beginning to think that Ethan might be the reincarnated Harpo Marx! Lol~
Why?
Ethan still is not big on talking. He has said "Mama" and "No" on separate occasions, but then he doesn't repeat himself.
But this little guy loves to whistle and he is REALLY good at it. Better than some adults I know, even! He likes to whistle if there is a show theme song that is on the TV that he likes and he also just walks around the house whistling.
He does remind me of when Harpo Marx would whistle and gesture to get his point across. You always knew what Harpo was talking about without him having to say a word. Ethan has used similar training methods on his family to great sucess. =)
The other day, he reminded me of a dwarf (Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs) as he was carrying these containers out of his bedroom to stick on the sofa in the front room and he was whistling while he was working.

The One Who Shall Remain Nameless
Poor Grandma....
Mommy made the mistake of mentioning the 'Forbidden Name' before leaving for a doctor's appointment this afternoon while Grandma was going to be watching Mr. Ethan.
This 'Forbidden Name' causes Ethan to go into such a tizzy lately!
What is this 'Forbidden Name,' you might ask? Simple. Kai-Lan.
Ethan has one Nihao Kai-Lan book. He also LOVES watching Nihao Kai-Lan on nickjr. This weird obsession of his has started over the past week or so. You cannot say 'Kai-Lan' without seeing Ethan do a happy dance and point to the TV.
Evidently, he believes that every time you utter her name, you summon her to your television.
He will not give up on pointing and grunting to the TV until she is put on.
I am not sure if he adores Kai-Lan, or Rintoo. Who knows? All I know is this baby is nuts for the show.
The other day, he actually tried to speak Chinese at her request. She asked us to say 'dig' in Chinese, so naturally Mommy said it. Ethan got excited and did his best to say it as well... Well, as close as he could get. It was cute and he was so proud of himself.
I love him, but am slightly saddened that there is already another special lady in his life besides me. Boo-hoo!!!
