If you don't want to hear about poop, then stop reading now. Ok so Ethan has had a problem with having regular bowel movements since he was about two months old. I have had to give him suppositories every seven days for two months then every three days for one month. So this weekend I decided I was done and that I would just see how long it would take him to go on his own. The second day, Easter, he did it! It was so great and really funny because me and Brian got so excited about his poopy diaper. Then he did it again. He pooped on Tuesday morning all on his own. It was so exciting. Last night, he was sitting in his bumbo just loving life when all of a sudden his face went bright red and he grunted really loud. Brian was home for this one so he got to change it. Out came the hospital gloves and about ten minutes later, Ethan had a clean diaper and a big smile on his face. Its amazing, he's pooped three times all on his own in the last five days. I never thought that I would be getting excited about him pooping but its great. I love being a mom. You get excited about the strangest things sometimes. Anyway, enough about poop.
Ethan and I have ventured out a lot this week because I really don't want him to be a home body. I want him to be ok going other places because he just hasn't been very good about that lately. So we went down to my friend, Coriann's, house on Tuesday with Missy and Abbi. It was a lot of fun to see her and her little girl. Then yesterday, we went to lunch with my dear friend Randi, with Missy and Abbi and Randi's little boy, Gavin. He is the cutest little guy, making us laugh all during lunch. It has been a fun filled week so far but now we're home because I need to just breathe at home and so does Ethan. I usually have been going to water aerobics on Thursday nights but I have a bad headache today so it looks like lots of T.V. and cuddling on the couch with Brian tonight. Oh shucks!
