Weekend with Grandpa


This past weekend Ethan turned 2 months old, and had a visit from Grandpa. We all had a great time. Grandpa is so good with Ethan, and Ethan slept on Grandpa's chest for over an hour. We all went to a party at Adam and Andy's house, and then we went back to the house to watch football and drink milk. Ethan was all partied out and slept for 7 hours.
Today, we took Ethan for his follow up ultrasound for his hip dysplasia. We have to wait for the doctor to consult with us, but the ultrasound tech said that she saw improvement in his condition. If this is true, the little man will only have to wear his harness for 3 more weeks. Mommy and I can't wait until our little boy is free of that contraption.

Ethan Shannon

So Ethan is almost 8 weeks old, and in typical fashion, we are just getting around to documenting his life. Although we have a nice camera, we don't feel like we are documenting his milestones as much as we  should. We are still getting our system down, and trying to get little man on a routine that won't drive any of us too crazy. He just started smiling for us, and is pretty good at keeping his hed up during "tummy time". I am perfecting my system for getting him to sleep at night, and lulling him back to sleep when he is fussy. Jenn is doing great too. She has such patience when it comes to calming Ethan when he is in his witching hour. All in all, Mommy and Daddy make a pretty good team.
