TRICK OR TREAT

Last weekend, Ethan went on his first trick or treat adventure. It started with a pizza party at a friends house. Ethan is the short one on the end!



Ethan was a bit younger than the other kids, but held his own. He was able to walk up to different houses by himself - grab candy out of the bucket, then come back to dad and mom! He lasted about six houses and of course mom and dad inspected the treats carefully after it was all over.

Changes-a-bunch

Were heading up to Ethan's first birthday next week--and boy has he been growing up in preparation for his birthday!

1. He's starting to walk. He has been a great cruiser for months, but only recently has he gotten up the courage to take steps alone. We still have to bribe him with crackers, but he's getting better. Check out this video (I hope it works, sorry it is sideways I don't know how to flip it)!




2. He now has 8 teeth! That's 6 new teeth since Christmas.

3. He has developed attachments. Not too long ago, he wouldnt look twice at any of his stuffed animals. Now he loves the--and in particular a blue monkey which he kisses all the time.


4. No more bottle. We phased it out over the past month or so, and he's doing great without it.

5. Cow's milk. Whole milk, yum!
