6 Weeks!

Ethan is 6 weeks old today! Can you believe it?!? Time continues to fly by, yet go soooo slow. It's a weird stage to be in. Ethan has so much personality already. He loves to smile and laugh... especially when we change his diaper. Never met a kid who likes to have their diaper changed so much! He's a tootin' machine... he loves to drop the biggest bombs when mommy feeds him, but for the most part he just loves to drop bombs ;-) I suppose we'll be thankful that he's "regular." haha. Well, I weighed him this morning and he's a whopping 12.4 lbs and measures in at 22.75 in. long. No wonder Bry's and I's backs hurt all the time. I don't even bowl with a 12 lb. ball!

Well, the excitement of the week is putting Ethan in the Bumbo. You're supposed to wait till they're a bit bigger, but he's doing so well holding his head up that we thought we'd give it a try anyways... here's a couple pics! I did try Ethan in the Jolly Jumper, but he just got pissed at me. It's WAYYYY too big for him, but he loves to stand so much that I thought he might like it, BUT he just yelled at me. We're hoping to get him the round play seat soon so he can try standing "on his own" for a while. My cousin is supposed to lend the play seat to us... we'll post pictures of that.

Last, but not least, Grandma Janet has really helped Ethan enjoy his bath time. We started a new routine... she distracts him while I bath him. It's seems to be working really well. He enjoyed his bath more than ever today. I think it's the happiest I've ever seen him.

Well, I know you all just want to see pictures.... so here you go. Oh, I almost forgot... Ethan said "Hi" during his bath today. Grandma Janet was there too... I'm not making it up. ;-)

Today during his very happy bath time!

Ethan gives daddy a big bear hug ;-)

He loves his daddy!
