All About Our Boy

So I know I do a lot of posts about Ethan, but once again, this is my journal and he's all that I do all day long. So here it goes. Ethan has been such a happy guy lately. The last few days, he's taken good naps, is really happy when he is awake, and is very playful with us. I make monster noises to chase after him, but he gets so excited he crawls right to me with a huge grin on his face. I love it! He is so much fun to be home with. Huge accomplishment: a tooth finally broke through!!! YAY! I can't tell you how happy that makes me. All last week Ethan was so ornery and had a stuffy nose. I thought it was because a tooth on the bottom was coming through but it never did. So I just thought he might have been sick. Low and behold, this morning, he had a tooth. All the orneriness was for good reason. He broke his eye tooth on the top left side. He's our little vampire! Brian called him "our little Edward". I love it! Anyway, now Ethan is such a happy little guy just ready to play all day. I thought it was kind of weird, though, to have his first tooth be on top and a side tooth. Isn't that strange? I swear every baby I know has their first tooth come on the bottom front. My child is unique I guess. Must take after his dad :) I took a few pictures of our handsome little vampire and thought I'd share. He's just so cute!!
Here's Ethan after crying so hard one day because he hit his head on our fireplace. He gets all read and splotchy, just like his mama. Its a Mathison thing :)

But he got happy real fast after he saw the flash of the camera a few times.

Just lovin' his daddy!

I love this face and his pajamas. He's so cute in his space jammies!

And here's our little vampire. I know, I'm a mean mom by prying his mouth open like this for a picture, but I needed proof to show he finally does have a tooth! He's been teething off and on for the past 4 months so its huge that he actually has one now.

Yay, I'm so glad he finally has something to show for all his pain. My first 2 teeth were my eye teeth on the top, I have pictures.
