Ethan Douglas Jahner: 10-11 Months

One more month, and Ethan will be one year old!! It's hard to believe almost an entire year has gone by since he was born. Ethan has been a very busy boy these last two months. He loves balls, electronics, Nick Jr., clapping his hands, playing mommy's piano, dancing and singing to music, and voicing his opinion. He is very good at throwing balls (a future baseball player perhaps!) and pressing every button he can find. He's such a smarty with cause and effect and loves to see what happens when he pushes buttons. This is great when he plays with his toys...not so great when he's constantly grabbing for our phones, laptop, and TV. Climbing up and down the stairs has been another favorite these last couple of months and hasn't been without a few tumbles along the way of course. But he's learning and is pretty fearless for the most part. He continues to walk along and between furniture, stand on his own, and take a few steps here and there (when he really wants something), but so far crawling is his preferred and fastest mode of transportation. This last month, he spent some time at Como Zoo with his nanny Brittany, he travelled back to N.D. and met his new baby cousin Aubrey, and he picked his very own pumpkin at the pumpkin patch. He also got to spend some time with Grandma Gloria, and he has been quite the "busy little bee" going to two Halloween parties. We love every moment with our busy, busy little boy and can't wait to celebrate his first birthday next month!
