Ethan turned one!

Ethan turned one on the 21st of February. His birthday celebrations lasted for weeks! We are setting the bar high for future birthdays... Ethan and I spent two weeks in Utah to help 'babysit' my siblings while my parents were in Australia. Chris met us there this past weekend and we were able to celebrate Ethan's birthday with both of our families. He is one spoiled little guy! I don't think he felt too bad about all the celebrations. He LOVED the cake and LOVED the ice cream even more.

He had his one year check up today. He is one tough dude! He had to get 4 shots and only cried while he was getting them, he immediately stopped as soon as I picked him up.
Stats:
Height - 30 inches 50th percentile
Weight - 21 pounds 45th percentile
Head - 85th percentile...

A few fun facts about Ethan at one:
- He is walking! He is getting better every day. He'll walk across the room but if he falls he defaults to crawling.
- He loves to be on the move. ALWAYS. Keeps mom on her toes.
- He is a great eater. Will eat anything we eat. Favorite foods include: blueberries, bananas, oranges, pears (basically any fruit), pancakes, scrambled eggs, avocado, and ice cream
- He still LOVES the park, dogs, balls and trucks.
- He is such a social little guy. He loves friends!
- He holds his mouth open wide when he is focused on something. Funny guy.
- He is strong! He has an incredible grip. It's hard to pry something from his fingers.
- He is FINALLY sleeping through the night. Thank goodness!
- He has 8 teeth with more on their way
- He uses his little pointer finger to point at everything and is getting the hang of waving hello and goodbye.
- He is such a happy little boy. Always smiling.

We love Ethan so much and are so blessed to have him in our family!
