Ethan Douglas Jahner: Happy Half Birthday

Six months ago on Sunday, we packed our bags, drove to Unity Hospital, and had our little 7 lb., 12 oz. Ethan at 12:05 p.m., November 29, 2010. Hard to believe six months has already passed! This month, Ethan has been sitting on his own like a little pro, rolling all over the place, and trying to get up on his hands and knees to crawl. It is so much fun to watch him change each week. He continues to be a very vocal baby and loves to listen to himself talk. He also loves to be outside and to go out in public, where he can see the world. He's a very big snoop! We had dinner with Grandma Norby the other night, and I thought he was going to break his neck, snooping on all the tables around us. :-) Firsts this month include celebrating Mother's Day, dipping toes in a cold swimming pool (at auntie Cherise's NP graduation in Grand Forks), celebrating Memorial Day with Grandma Norby and Auntie Cherise, sitting in a shopping cart unassisted, eating Stage 2 baby food, and sitting in mommy and daddy's boat. We're looking forward to the summer, when we can boat and play in our baby pool from Grandma Norby! It won't be long before we're walking to the boat and pool. And how are things on the sleep front? Don't ask....let's just say mommy has accepted the fact that sleeping through the night may never happen. ;-)
