So the day Ethan turned 8 months old, he started pulling himself up on furniture. We were very excited and proud and took all sorts of pictures. Every time he did it, Chris or I would point it out to each other. Well, the excitement lasted about 2 days until Ethan started pulling himself up in his crib instead of going to sleep!The first time it happened, it went on for AN HOUR AND FORTY FIVE MINUTES!!! Finally I had to pull him onto our bed and lie there holding him down. He was out within five minutes. That night he wouldn't fall asleep until 9:15 pm, was up at 11:45 pm for an HOUR, again at 3:15 am, then woke up at 7:15 am! (He usually sleeps until 8:30ish)
As I write this, I'm listening to Ethan shrieking (yes, he shrieks like a girl, it's hilarious!) in his crib as he stands there. I can't help but smile. What a blessing he is to me. He brings me so much joy, that even those moments of frustration are quickly forgotten.

Yeah!!! You're on! Okay, I can't believe Ethan is EIGHT months old! He looks like he should be a toddler - oh my goodness! Annika JUST started pulling herself up about a week ago! I can't believe I'll have a one year old next month! Crazy! Great job on the blog - keep 'em coming!
you have a blog! Yay:) Was it easy to set up? I can't believe Ethan is so old either! I was just looking at pictures from our first trip to winnipeg--I always think of Ethan as being older than Kallie (which he obviously is) but in my head, I don't think of him as ever being younger than she's ever been, but in those pictures, he's only 4 months old--that's 2months younger than Kallie is now! That's so crazy!!!! Anyhoo--I look forward to reading more on your blog:)
CUTE!~ Babies...I don't understand it. I'm so awkward. But I like hearing about your life!~~ Miss you. I can't wait to play with Ethan one day!
