Ethan's Christmas Update

Climbing on my new toy...

Nonnie, Pop, Uncle Andy, and Mommy and Daddy

Here I am with Buck. I love to pull his tail and touch his eyes.

Hello all. Mommy and Daddy say that it's my turn to update the blog. Let's see.....I had my first Christmas and it was so fun! I wasn't quite sure how to open the presents but I love playing with all my new toys! I got to spend time with Nonnie and Pop and Uncle Andy. I also got to spend time with my Grandma and Grandpa, my counsins Casey and Ava, and my Uncle Seth and Uncle Matt.

In other news, I am 9 1/2 months old. I have 2 bottom teeth and I love to crawl all around the house. I am close to walking; I love to stand while holding on to the furniture. I can wave and dance when Mommy and Daddy ask me to - they think it's so cute! I went to see the doctor for my 9 month check-up the other day. No shots this time - yay! She said I am a very healthy boy. I am 19.5 pounds (30th percentile) and 29 inches long (75 percentile). I am looking forward to my first birthday in March - maybe I will be able to open presents by then.

Hope to see you soon!

Denver Trip

A few weeks ago, Jake and I took a little weekend trip to Denver to visit our friends Page and Reagan. The day we left was the big Snow Day in Houston so we were a little disappointed that we missed it, but luckily we got plenty while we were there! We ended up not taking Ethan (the thought of schlepping the stroller, car seat, bottles, diapers, etc...) made me nauseous, so he stayed with Jake's parents for the weekend. I think it was a good idea because it was SO COLD and the altitude was even getting to me and Jake so we can't imagine how Ethan would have done.

We had a great time! The boys went skiing in Breckenridge while Page and I hit up the outlet malls to do a little Christmas shopping. Here are a few pics from our trip:

Christmas Card Sneak-Peak

Jake and I thought we'd try to take a few shots for our Christmas card - so we got Ethan in front of the tree the other day with a few ornaments and viola! :) Not professional but still cute.
Here are a few of my favorites. Gotta love the drool on the first one!! Ethan's first tooth finally poked through last week (bottom right) and its neighbor is not far behind so he's drooling like crazy!

T-R-O-U-B-L-E

Ethan is trouble these days! He's into everything, including crawling up the stairs and pulling all the ornaments off the Christmas tree... But he's also so much fun!! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving too. Ethan ate some bread, stuffing, and sweet potatoes!
