A BIG year!

2 days old.

1 year old.

Just thought I'd Let everyone know what Ethan is up to these days:

1-Sleeping (the most important one first). He sleeps 11-12 hours a night and takes 2 good naps a day.
2-Eating. He's usually a great eater. We are working on switching from the bottle to the sippie cup. He LOVES fruit! You should see him shovel in the watermelon, cherries, blueberries, and grapes.
3-Playing. If you ask, he'll throw you the ball. He's working on the shape sorter toys pretty hard right now. Sometimes he gets it, sometimes he gets frustrated and throws it. He also loves things with wheels - pushing them, pulling them, making "vrrrooomm" noises. He'll dance to music and clap too. When Ruby is around, he cracks up at her :)
4-Talking. Bye-bye, DaDa, Mama, baa-baa (bottle), ba (ball), woo-woo (Ruby), and the current favorite "uh-oh." I think he also says "ka" for truck, but I am still trying to figure that out. He also likes to blow kisses, give sloppy open-mouthed kisses, and fake sneeze "choo!"
5-Crawling like a madman, cruising, standing up mid-floor. He's not taking steps on his own yet, but he finally decided (today) that he wants to walk holding onto our hands.
6-Bathing - he loves splashing and will put his face in the water to try to blow bubbles. We are going to a friend's pool tomorrow - I hope he likes it!
7-Teething. There are 8 in there now.

It sure is nice to just be a Mommy for a while!
