Growing

Well Ethan turned 6 months old at the beginning of this month. He is just getting so big!

His stats at the doctors...

Weight: 14 lbs and 8 ounces (5th percentile)

Height: 25 1/2 inches (20 to 30th percentile)

One the day that Ethan turned 6 months we gave him some peas mixed in with rice cereal and he actually seemed to like it. However after his doctors appointment and we got the go ahead for baby food he did not like his peas! So we don't give him peas but he does really well with his baby food and he seems to really like eating his baby food.

He LOVES carrots! This is a picture of him attacking the spoon! haha

He also really likes squash! He really likes water too. We have given just a little bit of water every so often and he really likes it.

So far he likes carrots, squash, mixed vegetables, green beans w/squash,

pears, applesauce w/blueberries, bananas!

Look who is holding his own bottle!

And sitting up like a big boy by himself!

He loves his bear that Grandma Bell gave him for Christmas!

I love this boy so much!

He loves this big bear that Uncle Tyrel and Aunt Vandy gave him too! It is soo big compared to him!

Ethan is growing up way too fast. I am sad to see him grow so fast but I am also so excited for these new and exciting times with him. He is so much fun and we think he is getting close to crawling. He loves to sit up by himself, he is not a pro yet but he is getting there. While we were in California for Christmas he gave Brandon kisses for the first time on December 30th it was soo cute and I can't wait until he does it consistently. He has the best laugh and I can always get to him to laugh so hard and it is so fun. He rolled over from back to tummy on January 2nd and has been getting so much better at it! We love him so much and are so thankful to have him in our lives!
