We Have a Walker!

Ethan took his first steps two days after he turned one. Then he did a pretty good job walking for about a week. Then he stopped. He refused to do anymore walking or even standing really. For two weeks he would just scoot around- not even really crawl. Then two Friday's ago he started up again all on his own. By the next Tuesday he had it down.

Let me present to you our walking baby:

Video Time

Ethan is growing so fast! I love it! He recently learned to army crawl. I was hoping to put off the crawling until Christmas was over. I couldn't hold him back any longer. Two weeks ago he decided that he was done spinning himself in circles. He wanted to actuallly get somewhere. It all happened so fast.

Wednesday looked like this. Slow and steady.

By Friday he was a speedy- well speedier?

This video is just for fun. Last week Ethan started sniffing everytime I gave him a bite to eat. Nothing was sour. Everything was fresh. Mostly peas, carrots, and oatmeal. Now he will bust out this face anytime. He will squint his eyes, scrunch up his nose and and sniff away. Love this kid!



Rolling Over (Part 1)

I call this part one because he can only roll from his front to his back. Now I feel like he was born doing this, but that probably isn't the case. So let's just say that he has been doing this for a while. The only reason that I am now noticing it is that last Saturday I finally decided to show him how to roll from his back to his front. All week he has been trying his hardest to do it on his own. He always gets stuck on his arm. When I give him that extra little push he needs to get to his front, he hates it! He will do anything to get to his back as quickly as possible.

So here is what it looks like. Go Ethan Go!


And SUCCESS!



Oh yea, and he sits up!

Sometimes it looks like this... (love him!)


But most of the time it looks like this!

Way to go Ethan!
