Let There Be Sleep!

Well, Ethan is sleeping..I hope. I swear, being a mother brings so much worry.

"Is he breathing?"
"Did he get caught and that is why he is not fussing"
"Is he mad at me for letting him fuss for a moment?"

blah. but usually those are not true, just part of being a mommy, for me at least =}
Well, Ethan was exhausted from yesterday. My dad came over for his weekly Saturday stay so that the love and I can sleep...Amazing, yes! Well, Sunday we went to breakfast at Bob Evan's, then cleaned up some before Lawrence had to work. Well, then my dad asked us to go to the park, so we went to the park and watched him played Tennis and Ethan and I went for a stroll...It was so nice out, but I wish we were able to swim...but we are saving that for a time when daddy can come so he does not miss out on his first swim =D

So, all that sun and activity wore Ethan out and he went to bed at 7:30 pm. He usually goes down by 9, but we had been trying to get him to bed by 8 or 8:30, since he seemed to sleep as long either way...Well, 7 is too early for him it seems! He woke up at 5 am to eat, then played, and now is battling a nap which the nap seems to be winning currently, so I decided to make a post before my busy day begins. =} So 8:30 pm is the latest for bed for him now, since 5 am does not work for the love or myself..hehe.

Well, Ethan had his doctor's appt, and it went well! He weighed 15 lbs 7 ounces, I believe, and is 27 inches long! He is in the 95% for height and his head circumference (Thank daddy for that one =D) and like 50% for weight. The doctor is not worried about weight because just at the office she could tell how active he is. He LOVES tummy time, and trying to crawl.

Yesteday Ethan finally figured our the jumping part of the 'jump-eroo'...finally! So I caught a little video of him jumping with grampa Jay, which was adorable. He also 'scoots' backwards and now forwards..and he did crawl 1 length, and I have video for proof. Sorry grammypoo, that is what happens when you abandon us for a cruise! =}

For the 4th of July, Lawrence and I went to his friend's house for a party, then with his friends we went to a school for the fireworks (that were awesome! And we got an amazing video, woohoo!), then back to hangout. It was so nice, but we kept catching ourselves talking about Ethan..hehe..cannot escape him even when we are supposed to be 'young and free'. We just love him too much and missed him! Ethan will get his first fireworks next year, he was too young this time around. He slept great through all the fireworks this year =}

Well, I should try to nap while I can...The love works til 2 pm ish and then we are going to go swimming if warm enough....

Oh, Tiffany finished all of Ethan's pictures that she did, and the disc should be here any day now. I am excited to upload his new pictures and then get some more taken next week, the 17th or such.

Well, good update for a couple days missed. =}
