We took all of these pictures yesturday :)
Wow -oh my oh my does time fly. I always remember people telling me "they grow up way to fast". That is the truth they do, Ethan has grown so quickly almost right before our eyes. Today we felt Extremely happy and blessed to celebrate Ethan's 9 month birthday. We love him to pieces.... we cannot even describe how much love we have for him. It is such a strong endless kind of love, we have never been so in love in our entire lives.... Ethan is all over the place CRAWLING and pulling himself up on everything. If I am lucky I can finally sit down during nap time or after bedtime. He is everywhere all day every day. Ethan is learning-doing something new everyday- he is quite the explorer. Ethan still does not have any teeth.... but is teething very badly. Today we had Ethan's 9 month check up. Our amazing pediatrician Dr. Moustafa said Ethan is doing Excellent and was very impressed on how well Ethan is learning. As always Ethan was a show off for the Doctor. He was talking away, clapping his hands, being a complete hoot! I will say when the doctor tried checking Ethan out, Ethan was not a big fan of that.... he began to cry and pull away allot. I felt like I worked out at the gym for an hour after our doc appointment lol!!!! Moustafa explained to me that Ethan is going through the Mommy stage, and will have bad stranger anxiety ... this explains everything. Ethan has been such a mommy's boy ( I am not complaining ha!), and if he does not know you ...watch out... he puckers up and cries.
We were told by doc that Ethan can start stage 3 foods ..... yea!!!
Ethan :
- You love to snap your fingers ( well try) to any kind of music, along with dancing.
- Bath time continues to be your favorite part of the day.
- You mock our facial expressions and sounds.... you will look when we say look at light, car, dog. you are very smart.
- You LOVE your dog DORA :) It is hard for mommy and daddy to give you food because it goes directly to Dora.

-Outdoors is your new hangout .
-You love to play with Burke, and pull his hair( not nice.... we have to say NO NO)- You wear 12 month clothing- today you lost an ounce... but grew allot.... Doc said because you are extremely active. You are almost 19 pounds.
- You are not a big fan of sleeping through the night, you still get up at least 2 times - and strangers.
- You love your new push car. If we put you in it Life is Good.
