Ethan will be 4 weeks tomorrow (Sunday 1-23-11). He still spends most of his time sleeping and eating. The short times during the day when he is awake and not fussy are precious! He spends his time looking around and turning his head toward mommy and daddy's voices. He has even started watching toys that are moved in front of his face including the monkeys on the mobile in his crib. It is hard for us to tell how much he has grown since we see him everyday but he has already grown out of a few outfits.
Ethan Joseph Spaeth was born on Sunday, December 26th, 2010 at 10:36pm. We went into the hospital at 5:30am that morning for the induction and things progressed quickly. I was at 10 cm and ready to push at about 3pm. Bryon and Amanda were both in the labor/delivery room but Ethan was just not ready. He wasn't turned in the proper position in order for the pushing to have an affect on him. The doctor came in about 9pm and told us that a c-section was the only way. After that everything was a breeze, at least for me. Bryon told me I was snoring through half of the procedure. Everything went well and Ethan was born a healthy and happy baby.
