So this first post of 2011 is LONG overdue! I’ve been busy doing what I love most; being a mother & a wife. I often think about blogging but finding the time to sit at the computer is few & far between.
Ethan is great and as handsome as EVER!!! He is such a precious little boy and I can’t thank God enough for bringing him into our hearts & home. Time has gone by way to fast. This time last year, I was only 7 weeks preggo and Ethan is now 21 weeks old. He has started teething but thankfully, he’s doing okay ( just a lot of wet kisses from the extra drool) He could care less about all of the teethers & toys to chew on…he’s managing quite well with his fingers. He’s also talking up a storm! I can’t help but wake up with a smile on my face in the mornings when I hear Ethan babbling in the monitor. I guess it’s an added bonus that he’s babbling instead of crying too. I usually just lay in the bed & listen to him chat and anxiously await the day when the babble actually turns into the words Moma & DaDa! :0)
Chris and I talked today about how perfect he is, especially when he’s asleep. I absolutely love our feedings during the night. As exhausted as I am, I have to hold him a few extra minutes after he’s burped and in dream land. I steal his kisses in the night and he just smiles. One day he’ll grow up and “mommy kisses” won’t be cool anymore so I’m getting them in now. He has the most kissable cheeks ever…see pic below!
Ethan had a round of RSV ( THANK YOU DAYCARE) but bounced back quickly with the nebulizer. At his office visit on Friday, he weighed 17 lbs 13oz. He started eating cereal the week of Christmas and every since that time, he’s been growing like a weed!
Can you believe that my husband is ready to talk about number 2 ( pregnancy #5) OMG! He wants to try when Ethan is 6 months! Did he forget that I’m very fertile & we won’t have to TRY for long. Ethan is SUCH a sweet baby and I don’t want to RUSH him and make him grow up. I just want him to be my baby. I’m worried that the next child will be totally different from Ethan and I’d be CRAZY! I already told Chris that I plan to have a headache for the ENTIRE SPRING so be prepared!
Here are some new pics of my GQ Baby! Handsome, right?
He is so delicious! I want to eat him up!!! What a cutie pie! :)
ReplyDeleteHe sure is handsome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome little man! I love his cheeks. So kissable! Glad all is going well. I can't believe he's 21 weeks already - and my little guy is 11 weeks. Where does the time go????
