Little E at 4 and 5 months...



Where is the time going? My little weed is growing, growing, growing! He has so much personality, I just love him:) I haven't updated my blog in awhile because the site keeps changing on me and I have to re figure everything out:( Any who, E weighed 17 pounds 6 ounces and was 26 and half inches long at his 4 month appointment. He was a trooper...especially when he was getting his shots:)

Currently, Ethan is really into his hands these days and is starting to look at his feet. He is starting to sit up unassisted too and is starting to inch forward on his belly a little. E doesn't have any teeth yet, but I am sure they are not far off because he really enjoys stuffing both of his hands in his mouth and chewing on them! I can't say I am wishing for them though because I am still breastfeeding him and am not looking forward to the day he bites me;) I never went through this with Henry because I pumped and gave Henry a bottle when I went back to work. I also lost my milk supply early on due to sickness:( So we shall see what happens....

Ethan is not as good of a sleeper as Henry, but he sleeps well. He sleeps from 8:30 to 5 most nights, with random 11:30 or 3:30 feedings. So it is not so bad. E has done a great job adjusting to daycare after being home with mommy for 5 months. He takes his bottles with ease and is working on sleeping in a crib well during the day. His 6 month appointment will be coming up soon. We will soon see how big my chunker has grown. We will  also be embarking on the new adventures of trying solid foods!

Ethan is 3 months!


My little E was 3 months last Friday! He is growing so fast. He weighs about 17 pounds and is 25 inches (he has had one drop of formula:)). E weighs 2 more pounds more than his big brother Henry did at this age. I am thankful that I have be able breast fed Ethan this long without being attached to my pump and bottles. Breastfeeding is so much easier this time around and I have had an abundance of milk this go round.  Hopefully, I will be able to breastfeed E longer than I did Henry:) Ethan has been smiling and cooing a lot lately. He loves to talk to his mommy while he's eating, popping on and off the boob talking and smiling away. He also loves to play on his jungle gym, swing, and his car for tummy time. E has also been on many outings with his big brother Henry.  Yesterday he went on his first swing ride at the park and today he took a spin in his Jumperoo.   He is growing up so fast...I need to freeze time;)






















Fourth of July


Love my boys! Henry is 22 months and Ethan is 3 months:)
