At 13 Weeks

Wow, time has been flying at our household. It's been 13 weeks since Ethan's arrival and we are still standing (sometimes only barely). It's been quite the adjustment for all of us (including Kona), but we are getting the hang of being parents. One thing that we understood right away is that a cranky baby = cranky parents, therefore, we try hard to ensure that Ethan is well fed, changed and gets enough sleep, and the hard work has paid off. Ethan is nice and plumped and very healthy. Not only that, he is learning to sleep through the night which is incredibly nice for mom.
A few milestones has been already reached for Ethan, he's socially smiling now, cooing and "talking" lots, enjoys his tummy time and has even flipped himself over from tummy to back. He's working on going from his back to tummy and he'll get there soon as he can already get halfway there. He's still not too interested in his toys right now, but loves to look at lights. Overall, he's doing great and mommy and daddy are truly proud. Sadly, one member is getting the short end of the deal and that's Kona. But don't worry, he gets his "time" once baby is down for sleeps, but one thing is for sure, he's the only member of the family getting solid sleeps since Ethan has arrived. Lucky guy...
