9 months!


Where has the time gone? I can't believe our little babe is 9 months old already!
Here is a summary of what has been going on:
-He is 9 months old with an adjusted age of 5.5 months
-Sleeps 12 hours at night (now only if I could get the dogs to at least sleep 8 I would be doing good!)
-Eating rice cereal and got to try some apples today (his first taste was crunched nose and shaking his head but then he liked it ;)
-6 month clothes (just pushing out of the 3 month)
-Size 3 diapers
-Probably about 14 pounds
-Almost sitting (can sit for a few seconds on his own but not long enough to leave him that way)
-Rolling over
-At night he rolls over and sleeps on his tummy, moves to the top corner and lays across the crib (it made me nervous the first time he did this)
-Loves story time... has even made it clear he doesn't like Dr. Seuss books which I am hoping will change soon
-Loves to fly... on my legs that is
-He is on a routine! I was so happy when we were able to establish some sort of routine! He usually takes 2 naps and goes to bed around 8 (we plan on changing the routine so he goes to bed at 7 now that Marks schedule is changing)
-Smiles... and smiles a lot
-No teefers yet although I think one day they are just going pop up



And because every post is better with a picture....
Ethan is so funny during his baths. He still isn't sure what to think about them. He has been doing this thing with his hand by his mouth where he is like tapping his fingers against his mouth like he is in deep thought.

I have decided that this month I would dedicate my time at night to his scrapbook album. Wow... I am just now realizing how big this project is going to be! I have sooo many pictures and most of them are not edited. I took some time tonight to organize the pictures. Any scrappers out there with some tips on how to get this project done before 2020 let me know!

About Me

This blog started as a hobby for many reasons. It later became a way to keep the family up to date on our micro preemie baby, Ethan. Now as Ethan is nearing the 8 year mark with a little sister of 5 years I am finding a new reason to document on this blog.

Last year we were told by the school that Ethan had cerebral palsy, a blindspot and dyslexia. That is what started it all. I started taking him to doctors to find out what was going on and why this hasn't been discovered before now. In April 2017 we were told that he has executive functioning disorder. What the heck is EFD I thought?!?! After the doctor explaining it to us he basically said that if we don't start making changes now he could fall into the ADHD or possibly the autism category. Ok... so now what? What can we do?!? Well this blog is my way of documenting it all not only for me but also to help others find their way thru similar situations.
