Ethan has started doing a ton of things this week! It is crazy how much he has grown and learned in just 9 months! I know it would be exciting if I told you that he finally learned to crawl...but I will not tell a lie. No crawling going on around here.
This past Monday Ethan started saying his "d"-sound. Now it is the sound he uses most, "da-da-da-da", I cannot wait until he finds out it means Daddy. On Thursday he turned 9 months old! Wow. These months have flown by. Trent and I were looking at pictures of Ethan as a newborn last night and oo-ing and aw-ing over how TINY he was. I feel like my little boy is all grown up! On Friday he started clapping! I have been practicing clapping for weeks with him, moving his hands together and clapping my hands, but, wouldn't you know it, he clapped first for Trent. I was getting out of the shower and Trent says: "Caitlin, come here, I taught Ethan how to clap!" As if clapping twice in front of Ethan is all there was to it! Although, with as much as he loves Trent, maybe it was!
Also, as this week has progressed, Ethan has become extremely mobile. He still doesn't crawl, but he can pull himself forward on his hands, twist his body, roll around and finally make it to where he wants to. It is so slow that you don't really realize he is moving that much, but if I walk out of the room for a minute, I come back to him in a completely different spot! It is nice to see what kind of things interest him and yet still not have to chase him around a bunch...I am scared for that day! Please let it not come until April ;).
