Morning Pictures

These are a few pictures we took from Saturday morning this weekend. Ethan's been getting better and better at sitting up on his own. He's still got a bit to go on having complete balance, but he's definitely getting there! Ethan turned 6 months on Friday and we took him to get his JCPenney pictures today. Although he fell asleep the minute we got into the store, the photographer was flexible and we strolled around the store for 20 minutes to allow him to nap a bit. It was a bit rough to get smiles out at first because he was groggy, but I was very happy with how they turned out. I will post those in a week or so, once they are availble online to post.

Ethan's been experimenting with his tongue lately, he likes to stick it out and he'll watch us if we do the same and he kind of tries to mock what we're doing. We have his actual 6 month appointment on Wednesday this week so we'll give an update on his height, weight etc. I'm just hoping he'll be ready for a bigger carseat soon, as it's getting very difficult for me to lug him around in his current car seat.

Note the tongue sticking out...this definitely helps keep balance while sitting up. :)

We also went shopping for a few new toys today at Wal-Mart, as Daddy was just sure that a little boy needed some new things. It was like Dave was a kid in a candy shop once we got to Wal-Mart. I manned Ethan in the stroller and Dave went to work trying out all the noises and spinny things for 6m+ toys. In the end we got a little farm yard activity set that makes noises and a penguin blow up thing that makes noises when it wobbles around. Pictures to come in future posts of the newest additions of toys. As you can see from last week's post I think we need to invest in a toy box next time instead of more toys!!
