9 Months Old and Counting

Ethan is 9 months old today!  It seems like yesterday that we were anxiously awaiting his arrival (and thinking it would never come).  Again...I am amazed by everything he does.  I will post stats after his 9 month well chilid visit on Wednesday. 


Some of Ethan's favorite things:

Crawling (both army and hands & knees)
Pulling up to everything and standing
Playing with Max and his toys
Chewing on everything! (he now has 3 teeth...and working on more)
Talking
Playing with cups of all sizes
Eating his finger foods

Grandma and Grandpa Visited!

Jared's parents, Mark and Karen, came up for a visit this afternoon. We had a great lunch and fun time playing. Ethan is so lucky to have 4 awesome grandparents to love on him every chance they get. Here are a few pictures from our afternoon.

More Pictures!

Here are a few pictures from the past couple days around our house. On Wednesday we went to my friend and coworker, Molly's house for a little playdate (but I forgot my camera). Thursday we had a fun day of shopping! Well, I did anyway...Ethan got some fun stroller time though. And then today we've just been hanging around the house. Have a great weekend.

He has learned to sit on his knees...so cute!

'Which book should I read now?'

One of his new favorite toys...the laundry basket.

Just Another Monday Night...

Here are a couple pictures from our evening. Ethan loves his piano. It's just the right height for him to pull himself up to and there are all sorts of things for him to chew on. He is getting really good at crawling over to the piano and standing right up.

Random Pictures

It's been a while since I've posted anything new. So here are a few random pictures from the past few days.


Say Cheese! Ethan enjoying some shredded cheddar.



Sticking his tongue out...one of his favorite things.


After bath mohawk, and his cup...another of his favorite things.

Musical boy. (And if you look close, there are 2 little teeth in there)


Rocking out!

Nap Time...

This is how Ethan let us know he was finished napping this morning AND this afternoon. I didn't have my camera handy for the first time, but when he woke up from his second nap I was ready, just in case. He's just keeps amazing us with new things. Have a great week!

GiggleBox

Ethan got to giggling in the bathtub tonight so Jared quickly started recording. He obviously thought the bubbles were hilarious. He makes us laugh with everything he does. We just can't get enough of this kid. Enjoy!

Daredevil

The more mobile Ethan gets, the more courageous he gets. Instead of going around the basket, he just decided he would go over it...he didn't quite make it, but I snapped a couple pictures before helping him.
