Month 8

Ethan turned 8 months old a week in a half ago. He is still exclusively breastfed. and weighs about 17.4 lbs. I think it's about time to retire his 0-3 onesies now and today I noticed it looks like he may be outgrowing the "feet" in his 6 month footed pants. He has this fake wheeze he does now like darth vader when he's happy/excited. He also is standing now and will let go for a few seconds. He says "gaga goo" and if you ask him to give you a high five he will. He also has the LONGEST tongue and sticks it out all the time and we say "lizard lizard!!". I left him alone with his da-da overnight for my birthday and he seemed to do ok without me but wes said he didnt get any sleep all night. I didn't either ironically enough. I was on "Ethan's schedule". He got his first polio vax last month and I think that made him not feel well. A few days later he got a stomach virus and was sick for an entire week straight..and passed it on to Yia & Wes. He also went to his first baby friend birthday party over the weekend Ryann Hanrahan my friend Carrie Nielsen's daughter. He cut his first tooth (the bottom middle one) but it still only halfway in I think (and it's been a month). Today I felt and his second one right next to it cut through! I think that's it for updates. I think/hope he'll be walking next month! :)
