I cant believe it has been 2 months since I have posted any pictures. Things have been really busy around here. Ethan is now six months old. In July Ethan had surgery to correct a slightly underdeveloped urethra. It wasnt major surgery but it felt pretty major to us. We were in and out of the Childrens Surgical center in just a few hours but we struggled through 2 pretty crazy days and nights and did double diapers and lots of vaseline for a few weeks. The really good news is that everything appears to have been successsfull.
In general Ethan is a pretty happy and smiley kid. He loves to smile and giggle, full on belly laughs dont happen too often but you can tell that he is having fun. He is developing his own little personality and love it. He is a very curious little guy and I have a feeling that he will be that 2 year old that gets into everything. He occasionally sleeps through the night but it isnt a regular occurence. He is eating solid foods now and we hope that increasing the amount of cereal will eventually fill him up enough to get through the night.
We are getting out and about a lot more wtih Ethan than we did with Isabelle. I'm not sure if it just because he is our second kid or because his general attitiude is pretty good (probably both). Last week we went to Biaggi's (one of our favorite restaurants) and Ethan quickly determined that the table was is favorite dish.
At his 6 month appointment Ethan was in the 97th percentile for length, weight and head size. He is 28 1/4 inches long and weighs 21.5 pounds. He isnt the biggest 6 month old in the world, but he is fairly close.
