Well, Ethan has passed the 5 month marker, and boy is he getting big. He is now rolling over, and prefers to sleep on his stomach, with his butt sticking in the air. He is eating rice cereal once a day now, and he loves it. He actually finished a whole bowl tonight. Next week we will start him on a new food (perhaps bananas). He loves bouncing in his bumper jumper, and splashing mommy in the bathtub. He cracks up when Daddy tickles his chest with his beard, although it does leave a pretty good beard rash.

This year we celebrated Thanksgiving by hanging out with all of our wonderful neighbors. We weren't able to see our family, but we did skype Grammy in the morning. We hopped from neighbor to neighbor, mooching all of their food. We started at Adam and Andy's, moved to the Dolan's, and finished our night at The Heskett's house with a deep fried Turkey. We are so lucky to have such great neighbors.

Christmas is fast approaching, and we can't wait to see our family (who we don't see enough). Luckily, we are going to Jersey this weekend for the annual Rechenberg family hootinany, so we will get to see Daddy's side of the family.
