One Month!

Ethan is now one month old! Time has flown by. Last night was a big night for us--Ethan slept in his own room. It actually worked out so well and I am glad we made the transition. When he slept in our room I would wake up at every little noise he made and I would comfort him every time he whimpered...which led to a VERY tired mommy. So now I feed him and put him down in his own room and only go in there every 3 hours or so to feed him. After I fed him he fussed for a few minutes the first time I put him down, but I let him cry (SO hard for me to do!) and he went to sleep. After that he slept and woke up only to eat. I actually felt rested this morning when I woke up.
We got out of the house last night and went to watch Daddy's softball game. We had fun, even though Ethan slept the entire time in his car seat. =)

3 Weeks Old!

Ethan had his first trip to Greenwood to visit his grandparents this past weekend! It was a lot of fun for us and I'm pretty sure our parents really enjoyed Ethan being there.

Here are a few pictures...He already looks different!

Playing with the color on my camera...his passy is the only color

We laugh b/c almost all his pictures are on his boppy pillow

His blanket

He had his first real bath in Greenwood; he did not really like it, but he has liked them since then

First Dr. Appointment

Ethan had his first pediatrician appointment today. We just love Dr. Flowers =) He did great--he gained 9 0z, weighing in at 8lb 9 oz. The Dr. said that was great b/c most breastfed babies just gain enough weight to get back up to their birth weight. He hasn't gotten any longer, but it sure feels like he has.

He is in the 50th percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height! We are hoping he continues to be tall, but I guess you really can't know this early =)

Big Week

Ethan had a big week this week! He had his first trip to Wal-Mart and his first babysitter (my mom). My mom offered to watch him while Scott and I ran to get something to eat.

He has his first Dr. appointment tomorrow. We are anxious to see if he has gained weight or gotten longer. He seems to be getting bigger every day!

Ethan loves his daddy
