Ethan at 9 Months


I can't believe I let Ethan's 9-month birthday (and my birthday) on July 25th go by without posting his photo!  In the past month he has become much more mobile, making it more difficult to get these blog posts up.  Anyway, here are some tidbits about 9-month old Ethan:

  • He has 2 new teeth -- the bottom middle teeth.
  • He learned to crawl...first forward crawl was on July 22nd and he has been getting progressively better and faster every day.
  • He had his 9-month check-up on July 26th.  He had his vision checked (perfect) and iron levels checked (also perfect).  Because they pricked his foot to test his iron, they gave him half of an orange-flavored Icy Pop to distract him....so, he's had his first official lolli too.
  • He weighs 19.0 lbs.
  • He is 28.25 inches long.
  • He is getting too tall for his infant carseat now...and almost too heavy (ours only goes to 22 lbs).  Unfortunately, our Safety First Convertible Car Seat doesn't fit rear-facing in our Saturn (it's too tall and we can't get the angle right because of the seat-slope), so I'm trying to find a new convertible car seat that will fit and keep Ethan rear-facing for as long as possible.  
And more exciting news is that for my birthday present, we are going to take a trip to Disney World in September!  Cayne has never been and of course, neither has Ethan so I will get to have fun experiencing it with them.
