9 months

Ethan turned 9 months on the 4th of July.







is 20 lbs and 29" long.

is so close to crawling and is getting so frustrated that he can't.
is trying to pull himself up on everything. rolls and scoots around all over the place.

loves to eat. Favorites are squash, yogurt, fresh fruit, pizza, yams, carrots, and cheese.

is obsessed with watching us brush our teeth and loves toothbrush and toothpaste, the Minty kind.

zero teeth.

shakes his head no and tilts his head from side to side.

loves to play with toys. Loves things that open and close.

loves going on walks and swinging at the park. And swimming.

finally getting some hair :)

still lives for bath time.

It is so fun for me to watch this baby grow up. I just wish it wasn't happening so fast.

CABO

cabo this year was amazing (as always) ethan did great and I am so glad we ended up bringing him. we had lots of family to help out which made it really nice. dan & i were able to go out a few times alone. we had an amazing time swimming, eating, and relaxing!

we went on a boat ride which ethan loved. he looked around and then got so relaxed he fell asleep.

lots of beach time

ethan turned into a little fish this trip. he LOVED the water.

we went on a zipline excursion which was a blast minus all the hiking in the 110 degree weather.
