3 Months Old

Ethan just finished celebrating his first Thanksgiving. He had a great time going to Lebanon and seeing his Grandma and Grandpa, aunts, uncles, and cousins. He got to meet his Great Grandma Moots for the first time. He knew she was special because he gave her the biggest smile.

It's Gettin' Cold Outside

Ethan is now 10 weeks old. He's looking more and more like Daddy everyday! This week he has really started watching things and people. He has located his hands and likes to look at them. His fingernails have also located his face and he looks like he got caught in a cat fight! Now he wears socks on his hands to keep the money-maker safe! :) Sock puppet show anyone? We have smiling and bubble blowing down pat now...laughing should be next. I can't wait for that!! We love to laugh.


Now that the colder weather has started in Ethan has been trying to stay warm. Thanks to friends and family he has lots of cute fall/winter clothes.

I got an IDEA!

2 Month Check up and Fun with a Burp Cloth

Ethan had his 2 month check up the other day. He has grown so much! He is now 12 lbs and 13 oz and 24 inches long. He is hitting all of his milestones and super healthy. The doctor was very impressed with how much Ethan was talking while he was there. He was great during his 3 shots. He cried when they were giving them to him, but was fine right after. He slept that whole evening and still slept all night too. What a great baby we have! We will go back again when he is 4 months old. I'm sure that it will be here before we know it. These first 2 months have flown by!!

New cool headband!

Ethan likes to grab his burp cloth and hold it close to his face. I thought we could have even more fun with it!!

Hey Ethan, wanna play a game??

First Halloween

Ethan had a busy Halloween. We went to show off our costume at Grandma and Grandpa Vangrootheest's house Saturday night. They loved his bear costume and took lots of cute pictures. After that we went to Grandma and Grandpa Brown's house. Cousin Tegan was there and she was dressed up like a ballerina.

 Grrr!

On Sunday evening we participated in Trunk or Treat at our church. We decided to dress Ethan up as a Kan-Zou fan. Chris is a KU fan and I am a MU fan...so Ethan is a little bit of both! We made him a little onesie with "Kan-Zou" on the front and "02" on the back. He was exactly 2 months old on Halloween.
