Ethan has accomplished so many new things this past week that I feel like my little baby has aged so much. Earlier in the week (Tuesday 5/18), Ethan showed us his new skill of rolling around the room. I had placed him in the center of his bedroom and ran to the restroom. By the time I came back (it was a quick trip!) he had managed to roll to the opposite side of his room! Unfortunately I didn't actually see this happen so I wasn't sure if he had rolled or scootched. I found my answer the very next day when he rolled across our living room floor! Chris and I are quickly learning how important baby proofing will be based on the fact that Ethan got a hold of the DVD player, Molly, and a filled laundry basket. Let the games begin!
While driving home from the sitters on Tuesday, I could hear gum chewing like smacks accompanied with whispers coming from the back. After adjusting the mirror, I noticed that Ethan was practicing talking by repeating the "dadadadada" syllable over and over. I quickly texted Chris to inform him that his son was practicing saying his name the entire trip home.
After bath that night, Chris hovered over Ethan on the changing pad while repeating "dadadadada" himself many many times. Lo and behold, Ethan began mocking Chris and continued to say "dadadadada." Imagine Chris' excitement to know that Ethan's first word was his title! How proud!
And lastly, our little one is growing into quite the piggy pie. He wants to be fed constantly (every2 hours) as opposed to the typical 3-4 hours. Last night while eating dinner, he finished off an entire 3 course meal: sweet potatoes, avocado, and apples! I bet the sitter's going to have a wonderful day today when that comes back at her :)
