First Cold

This week Ethan had the sniffles for a couple of days. The poor little guy was all stuffed up. We put the humidifier in his room and let him sleep in his bouncy seat. He recovered quicker than I ever do when I have a cold.

 Poor Little Sick Baby!

Where's ducky?


I love this little puppy dog outfit. It reminds us of our Boxer friend, Champ!

He loves his new giraffe. What a happy little face!

6 Weeks Old

Ethan has been a busy little man the last couple of weeks. He had a great weekend with Grandma and Grandpa VanGrootheest and Great Grandma and Great Grandpa VanGrootheest the first weekend in October. He stayed all by himself with 4 grandparents for a few hours and was swimming in attention and love! When I went back to pick him up, all four of them were standing around the pack and play watching him sleep. So sweet!

This past weekend Grandma and Grandpa Moots came to town and got to spend some time with all 5 of their grandsons. Ethan went to his cousin's soccer game, an outdoor viewing of "Back to the Future", and church. He also did a great job for Grandma and Grandpa while Chris and I went to lunch together Sunday. It was nice to have some time together without any interuptions. Although, we did go to Target right after lunch to get a light-up toy for Ethan. We knew he would love it!

A boppy pillow is not a neck pillow dad!

Ethan started sleeping longer stretches at night over the last couple of weeks. We were so excited when he slept for 6 hours, but now he is sleeping around 8 hours at a time! We can't believe it! We started a new bedtime routine that seems to help him sleep better at night. He gets a bath before bed each night. He loves being in the water. He kicks his legs and moves his arms like he is swimming. I think I am going to have to look into a Mommy and Me swim class soon!
