Ethan....

-Sits up completely alone and very steady.
-Can lean backwards onto James or I (like a 45 degree angle) and sit up straight by himself
-Still tries to sit upright from any laying or angled position. (bouncy seat/carseat/stroller)

Oh, they are doing so well and so darn cute! Do you still love being home with all day? I feel so very blessed that Chris is able to allow me and Kyle to do this. I feel like a broken record that I tell him so much, but I know he likes hearing it. Men and their egos, you know! :)
