nine months old. yikes!

e is nine months old.
yikes!
he is getting so big so fast. 



he used to lay down and play on the crinkly doctor paper, not anymore he was wiggling and trying to escape.


he looks like a giant in the baby scale! i wanted to cry a little bit because the scale used to look so big compared to him.


the doctor said he looks great and is growing along the curve.
he weighed in at 20lbs 10oz and is 28.5 inches tall he's my giant baby. 

these days easton is:
* crawling like a champ
* more curious than curious george
* loving food and has a well rounded variety of fruits and veggies he loves, current fav is the pumpkin banana combo
* pulling up on everything, couch, chair, coffee table, walls, baby gate, baskets {he is so close to walking}
* sticking his tongue out and blowing spit everywhere
* a dancing fool, anything with a beat gets his hips movin' and groovin'
* sort of waving good bye, its irresistibly cute
* attempting to mimic sounds and mouth movements, you  have to maintain his attention first
* S C R E A M I N G during diaper changes and when changing his clothes.
* still not sleeping through the night, but the doctor has assured me that its gonna get better and that not all babies sleep through the night.

we are working on getting on a little bit of a schedule, we have a morning nap usually after breakfast and are working on nailing down that afternoon nap. e is such joy and brightens every room he is in, you just can't help but smile at his silly faces and dancing moves.

.hospital.hospital.hospital.

wow it  has been a cray {'cray' is what the cool kids are saying for crazy these days} week. one of my goals this year was a weekly blog update along with more organization. well life happens and i missed the first week of the year.

this week started out normal enough, it was the week that we were going to get on schedule and finally recover from the holidays and new year, and then mom went to the ER and was admitted into the hospital and will have been there for a week tomorrow. thankfully it was nothing major or life threatening, just very painful for mom and super stressful for all of us. hopefully she will be home tomorrow afternoon. despite all of this, we have been so blessed with love, support, and prayers. it has been a v e r y l o n g week. 

after 5 days of being cooped up mom finally felt up to going on a little stroll, we took her down to the 'healing garden' it was pretty overcast and a little chilly, but so nice to be outdoors.


one of those windows is moms room



we are so thankful that mom is healing well and will be home soon.

heres to next week being the week we get back on track!
