Still Breathing

Well here I go...I don't know how much I can really get written before Ethan gets too grumpy for Nick to handle alone. He has been behaving for a while and as soon as I start to type he decides to start whining ahah. Ethan woke up from 9:30ish this morning (to stay up, he woke up lots of times in the night like always) but he laid on the couch with me for a while before he got antsy and wanted up. He gets in moods where he doesn't want to do anything at all but whine because his teeth coming in are hurting him. He just tries to stick his entire fist in his mouth which always leads to him choking himself. Poor dude. First he chokes eating his bottle because of his reflux and now he chokes because his little teethers are hurting him. Hopefully it gets easier for him once they start coming in, maybe then he will be in a better mood and want to play more. Anyway...back to this morning. So he got in his "i don't want to do anything but whine" mood so I gave him a bath, the one thing that makes him stop crying no matter what. He loves water. Sometimes when he just won't stop crying we go in the kitchen and he sits his little butt on the counter and hangs his feet in the sink. I keep the water running and put the plug in so he can kick his feet in it. That keeps him entertained for a while. I keep going off on these side notes and forget what I was writing to begin with. If anyone actually reads this (Obviously you Julie) it will probably get annoying because I can't stick to one topic. I'm probably slightly A.D.D. Okay soooo he took a bath and then we played on his mat and with all his other toys (he gets bored easily) until Nick woke up. We went to take back our movies to blockbuster and he napped. Nothing really exciting happened after that. We came home, he slept, woke up, played, napped so on. Later on Nick and his friend Donny played putt putt golf and Ethan and I watched. He was being good until it started to rain, then he didn't want to be in his stroller anymore. He was super happy once I took him out and lugged him around with me. I forgot his snugli carrier thing at home so I had to carrier the chunk around with me the rest of the time we were there. Now we are sitting at home and Ethan is jumping away in his jumper. He is starting to get a bit whiny so either he will start screaming because he wants out or he will lay his head down and try to nap. He is silly and always jumps until hes tired and just plops his head down to sleep. When I go to take him out to nap somewhere else he wakes up and starts jumping again right away like he wasn't asleep :) He is so cute. It's weird because he changes sooo much but I'm always with him so I don't really notice. Alicia stopped by yesterday and said he wasn't so smiley last time she was here and that was only a couple weeks ago. It's like he gets more of a personality every day and I love it! He has only rolled over a couple times now, I think his big ole head makes it hard. I wish he would roll over more! He also hates tummy time. I swear that huge head must be heavy to lift ha. His belly button hernia might bother him on his tummy too. I don't know if it hurts him or not. His belly button doesn't stick out anymore but you can tell it's still there. Oh and Ethan is getting really good at sitting up! He holds his toes and can stay up for a long time. He loves standing too. He held my hands and stood for like 5 minutes a few days ago! He's such a big boy! Well he is starting to whine so I'm done rambling....
