8 Months

Ethan has five teeth now and loves to put EVERYTHING in his mouth.  He's crawling around at lightning speed and pulling himself up on everything.

Go Dodgers!

Ethan went to his first Dodgers game!  We had a great time and Ethan did really well for having to sit for so long.  Though the Dodgers lost we had a great time with our family visiting from Minnesota!

Disneyland

Sunday we went to visit Mickey and his pals at Disneyland. 

Cousins

Cousin Kyle, Taya and Ella joined Ethan for an end of summer photo shoot.

Ethan's first haircut

When we were in Minnesota Ethan also got his first haircut from Brian's cousin Chris.  Although fun at first, Ethan grew tired very quickly.

Minnesota

We had a wonderful trip to Minnesota!  We went to surprise GG, Connie and Greg for their 60th birthdays and boy were they surprised! We had lots of fun having all twenty-two of us together and it was the first time everyone could meet Ethan.

This was Ethan's first trip in an airplane and he did great!  This was also his first night in a hotel, fun for Ethan, not for Mom and Dad! Ethan even went on his first boat ride; he was not too happy in his life preserver!

Bath Time Baby

Ethan had just gotten out of the tub and he was just relaxing in his robe.  He also wanted to show off his two little teeth.

Summer Fun

We've been having a wonderful summer so far.  Ethan has been able to go swimming a few times with GG, Bops, Auntie Kristin and his crazy cousins.  We also made it out to a splash pad with the girls from MOPS.  This past weekend we were able to get together with our couples group friends for a BBQ.

Seven Months

We had a great time taking Ethan's seven month pictures yesterday!  Since we have been doing this every month he is becoming more and more comfortable with the camera.  We even got to take photos on a Harley, just like Daddy used to have.  (No, we will not be getting a real one, nor will Ethan ever ride one!!!)

Hungry Little Boy

Ethan is growing like crazy!  He's crawling all of the place and pulling himself up and over anything he can.  Ethan loves to chase poor Ginger who is still wondering when he will be returning to wherever he came from.  He has two little teeth which he's using to nibble on everything.  His diet has also grown considerably and this week he had his first go at a sippy cup.
