Ethan went from not taking a bottle to LOVING diluted apple juice in a bottle to holding the bottle HIMSELF in a split second, it seemed. Just like every other milestone of development - each worth heralding as wonderful, but each also a reminder just how big our tubby little lad is getting: much much much too fast. Even Troy said last night that he wished Ethan would stay this age for a few years (Troy - the parent who thought he'd only really enjoy kids who were old enough to play in the back yard). Its just so hard not to melt and love a kid who smiles all. the. time. *love*
