Ethan is 15 months!


Ethan is my little firecracker! He has so much personality:) He is a truly happy baby. The only thing he dislikes are long car rides.  A few weeks ago, we went in for his 15 month check up.  He was a trooper getting his shots! He weighed 26 pounds and was 31 inches long.  He is currently in 18-24 month clothing depending on the brand.  Henry was a bit taller at Ethan's age, so he wasn't in 18 month clothing as long as Ethan has been.

Ethan has turned into such a blondie.  I often get asked where his lovely, blonde locks come from.  I always respond that it is on both sides of the family.  Maybe my next child will have red hair and we will have a complete collection;) Ethan still loves to eat everything, even veggies.  There are not many things he will turn down!  He loves playing peek-a-boo, high five people, and touch fingers for ET phone home. He also loves to sort things, take puzzles apart and play with his choo, choo trains and cars.  His talking is screaming at the moment.  He can say mama, dada, hi, bye, vroom, and he barks like a dog.  He waves hi and bye, signs a few things, and is an expert on the stairs and a great walker too.  At the park, he loves going up and down the slides and ramps. Ethan also loves the beach and the zoo.

Ethan is such a better sleeper now than he use to be. He sleeps all night and takes at least one great nap a day.  Lately, he has been sleeping til 9 ish. Giving mommy and Henry a little extra time in the morning to chill out:)  Ethan is currently learning that he cannot take every toy Henry is playing with and Henry is trying to be the patient, understanding brother (unfortunately their is a lot of screaming on both sides). Henry has nicknamed Ethan, EB and it has stuck (for Ethan Bethan, Henry loves to rhyme names or things).  Soon Ethan will be starting daycare again. I hope he stays healthy. We had a terrible last school year.  I am starting a new journey with YL essential oils, so I hope they will aid me in keeping my EB well!
