Ethan will turn 8 months old next week. He is still a very big boy but now that he is getting around a little more I think he will start to thin out a bit. He is now crawling all over the place and his favorite activity is standing up. He loves to stand up againts the couch, ottoman or the new play table that he got this week. Occasionally you can see him stand up on his own for a quick second but he does fall down alot. He is very determined and I expect that he will walking before too long. He has had a few very difficult weeks of teething. He is getting 6 teeth on the top all at the same time! As you can imagine this has created some significant discomfort for all of us. When his teeth arent bothering him he is a very fun and happy kiddo.
It has been a pretty busy fall. Ethan had his first trip to an apple orchard, his first GRE family day and his first trip up north which included his first barn dance. As you can see in the picture below the barn dance didnt really hold his attention as he crashed in his stroller for most of the event.
