Ethan turned ONE

Well I can't believe a year has actually gone by. Our little Ethan has went from a baby to a toddler. What a year it has been. He has grown so much. I've posted his stats so you can see just how much he has grown.


WEIGHT & LENGTH:
Birth: 8 lbs 6 oz, 21 1/4 in
12 months: 21 lbs 14 oz, 31 in

Things that he has learned over the past year:

His first word was Mama, although he only said it a few times we still count it as his 1st word. :) His next word was Dada and now he says it constantly, although I don't think he actually puts the word and the meaning together. He is also saying Nonna and Hey occasionally, but not consistently. He is also babbling A LOT these days so we are working on getting other words out.

Rolled over at 4 months; Started sitting at 5 months; Crawled at 8 months and finally he is walking now at 13 months. Check out the video below:


He is also into everything these days. Some of his favorite things to get into is the kitchen drawers that have his sippy cups, plates, bowls, etc. We have to pick these up several times a day b/c he takes them all out. He also likes to drag food out of the pantry and he loves to pull mommy's makeup out of her drawer in the bathroom.

He also has some favorite toys which include books, a rolling turtle and a truck and he Loves his Police Cozy Coupe. Check out his picture below.


Overall, he is doing really well and we are extremely proud to be his parents!

Ethan's Birthday Party


Thank you to all who came to help us celebrate Ethan's 1 year old birthday. We had such a blast. His party was jungle theme based and very colorful. We had a blast hanging out with all our friends and family. We miss you all so much. Ethan really loved his cake. I thought he was gonna be one of those kids who wouldn't even touch the cake, but he surprised us all. He dug right in and ate some of the yummy delicious cake. His face is proof that he loved it. Just see the pics below.
