Check Up!

I took Ethan in to his year check up yesterday and it was madness! Seriously, I was at the doctor's office for almost two hours because of all the sick people there. Ethan was having a ton of fun throwing items from my purse up in the air and watching people's reactions. Such a silly boy. Then he saw the doctor and he got really shy. Such a silly boy. Then he saw the nurses and started to give his flirting smile. Such a silly boy. Seriously, I love this kid. He is getting more fun everyday. Except he has his first sickness ever! He has a very minor cold. The doctor said he didn't think it was a cold, just more teeth coming in but that it could be a minor cold. He didn't cough or flem as much with the other teeth that came in so I'm pretty sure its a cold. He acts just fine most the time. He was a little sensitive yesterday but I'm sure its because of all the shots he got. Poor baby. He was loving the nurses until they stuck him in the legs with six different needles! Anyway, his stats are great. He weighs 21 pounds (25%) and is 30 inches tall (50%). He looked so grown up standing up on the scale. My baby's all growed up!

Some things he does now:

-He walks like a pro! Seriously, you would never know he learned to walk a little over a week ago. He is also trying to run.

-He says uh-oh anytime he drops something.

-He throws things up in the air and laughs every time.

-He gives fake sad faces, shy smiles and cheesy grins. Love it!

-He knows the sign for all done so when I put him in his highchair and he doesn't want food, he starts waving his arms like crazy!

-He now understands what night-night is and likes me to put him to bed. Most of the time, he is a major daddy's boy but nighttime is my time. I love it because he'll cuddle with me on the way to his room. Oh how I love my baby!

-Any time I ask if he wants to see dada, he starts to wave because most of the time we have to leave to see Brian.

-He sits and looks at his books forever sometimes.

-He understands more how to play with his toys (i.e.-putting balls in holes, blocks in blocks).

-He knows how to play peek-a-boo by putting something over his head and then uncovering himself multiple times. Sometimes when he's eating, he'll put his fists over his eyes and want to play then. He laughs pretty hard when Brian plays with him. He loves his daddy!
