Our BIG baby boy


Ethan finally was able to have his 4 month well-check vist at the doctor today. (He is a little late going in with our move and waiting for new insurance to kick in). He had a few shots and even after the nurse poked him with the first one he cried for a second and then looked up and gave her a huge smile. He is going to be a heart-breaker I'm sure.
So, at almost 5 months old here are the current stats:
Height: 28 inches (off the charts)
Weight: 18 lbs 10.9 oz (about 90th% of average)
Head: 44.5 cm (about 90th% of average)

Yes, he takes after his Dad. Aren't they cute? :)

Camping

We've been busy with a lot of fun adventures. Brielle has been camping a couple times in Michigan, but she didn't seem to remember it. I told her we were going on a road trip to go camping (we went in the Eastern Sierras outside of Bishop, California which was about 5 hrs away.) As we drove she kept pointing out hotels for me, since that is what she remembered from our roadtrip from Michigan to California.


When we got to the site however, she discovered that she LOVED the tent. She honestly would close herself in there and play for minutes at a time. It was like 30 minutes which gave me a chance to sit and relax before getting up to chase her again.


Cousin Gavin was able to come up as well. Brielle and Gavin loved exploring their surroundings looking for lizards or just cool rocks.
