Third Month
(October 20th - November 20th)
Ethan was dedicated to the Lord on October 24th. All our friends and family came to see him at church, even Great Nana and Great Grandpa from Texas! It was a great day! We're so blessed to have him and all of our wonderful family and friends in our lives! Thank you to all that were able to be a part of his special day!
He was a banana for his first Halloween. So darn cute! Look at the First Halloween post for details and pictures.
He's very talkative now, making all kinds of babbling and cooing noises. We LOVE it! We've even gotten a few giggles...mostly when he's tickled since he's SO ticklish...poor guy. We're just waiting for the full baby belly laughs. He definitely recognizes each of us and gives us a big smile when he sees us.
We're still working on his hand/eye coordination so he's not quite grabbing at his toys yet but he wants to so bad lol. But he has discovered his hands this month and CONSTANTLY has them in his mouth and rubbing his face.
Ethan absolutely LOVES bath time... splashing and giggling and getting all excited. And just yesterday we all (Dave, me, Grandpa Hills & Uncle Cameron) took him for his first swim in a pool! It was very cute...he LOVED it! It was a riot...
(haha)

15-16 lbs
25" long
Eating approx. 4 oz. every 3 hours = 28oz per day
Ethan is now 12 weeks and 3 days old. I know I say this every month post but wow... that flew. He's growing so darn fast! He's a solid boy that's for sure. We don't really notice how much he grows until we look at pictures or if we hear it from others. He's wearing 6 month clothing already...
This past month was filled with a great milestones. He started 'school' three times a week in November at Little Oaks. They do all kinds of activities with them so he's usually exhausted by the time we get him home. He even did his first art project that we proudly put on the fridge :)
He's a pro at holding his head up now and when we have tummy time he's able to hold his head and shoulders off the ground...such a strong boy! Won't be long now before he's mobile! He loves to play the 'sit-up/stand-up game'. He gets a big smile on his face and gets so proud of himself. So cute. He LOVES sitting up and chillin' with us on the couch and loves to stand up with our help. I think we're going to be in trouble when he's able to move around...

(haha)We're so blessed with Ethan. He's such a happy and content baby. He only cries when he needs something. This next month is Christmas season!!! YAYAYAY so crazy excited! I LOVE Christmas anyway, but this year is going to be so much fun with Ethan. :) So I'm excited for the next two posts ... stay tuned!!
