Crawling among other things...

Ethan is almost 7 1/2 months old and just learned how to crawl this weekend. We knew he was going to soon but he just couldn't get his arms and legs to coordinate. So Grandpa Moots showed him and talked him through it and within hours of that first lesson, Ethan crawled his first few inches! He now goes immediately to the trash can, entertainment center, and book shelf...all of which are not for babies!! So we are certainly having to stay on our toes when he is on the move!

He has his 2 bottom middle teeth now. He's a big fan of chewing things with his new chompers. He's eating Cheerios and crackers like a pro! I was feeding him dinner one night and all of a sudden he pulled out a cracker from his high chair and started eating it! I didn't even see it there, he was saving it for later I guess!

He loves to pretend like he's talking. It's cute...except for he likes to do most of his practice in his crib at 6AM. So I have to listen to his chatter on the baby monitor during my last few precious minutes of sleep before I get ready for work.

The weather is getting nice now and we just bought a jogging stroller to use for my 5k training over the next few weeks. Ethan likes the breeze through his hair and putting his feet up on the tray in front of him. We are certainly getting good use out of the new stroller! We both enjoy our running buddy, Lauren, she helps keep Ethan occupied and entertained!
Bad hair day!
