Slept through the night for the first time!!!!!

He may be almost 11 months old, but this is a first for Ezra. He slept all the way through the night without waking up!!!!!! We can hardly believe the day is FINALLY here when he sleeps. Praise Jesus for sleeping babes!

10 months!

10 months already? Ezra is growing so fast. He is truly a delight and such a wonderful little boy. He likes to spend his days climbing, exploring, laughing, playing games and reading books. He likes to swing at the park, stroll in his stroller and is generally up for going anywhere. He is still super alert and is always busy doing something or looking at something assessing his world. He has been enjoying hanging out with his baby friends, I think that they are all getting to the age where they are beginning to understand playing with.

"How is he sleeping?" you may ask. Well, about the same is the answer. At night he is still sleeping only a few hours at a stretch. Hopefully this will be changing soon, mamma is getting REAL tired. I thought for sure that by ten months he would be sleeping through the night...wrong. However, the his naps during the day have been going great. He is taking 2 naps during the day and they are about 1.5 to 2 hours at a time.

Ezra also has gotten his first tooth. Yup, one little one on the bottom with another ready to pop through any day now. So sweet, our little boy is going to have a mouth full of teeth so soon.

As expressed before we LOVE Ezra and feel so blessed that we get to be his parents to raise him, love him, teach him, protect him and steward him.

Spring is here!

Don't mess with this bandit.

Happy 9 months to Ezra!!!

9 months, really? Oh man, time really does go by so fast. Ezra is still a wild child, not sleeping very much. We were hoping that at 9 months he would not be waking up at all at night...no such luck. Not only is he waking up a bunch still he is now refusing to go to sleep. For a while there he was a champ at going to bed, he would go straight down and sleep for a few hours. Now he just stands in his crib hollering at us to come and get him! Back to square one of working on a bedtime with him.

Wild tendencies aside, he is so sweet. He still loves to be carried around and likes to look at everything. Ezra loves to eat food! He will eat anything that we give him. Current menu options include sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, avocados, applesauce, baby mum-mum crackers, quinoa and rice.

He crawls, mainly to get to something that he can climb. Climbing is his new favorite thing to do. As much as he loves climbing he has yet to figure a way to get down, which means he crashes, poor guy.

He is truly a delight and we love him so much. We probably say, "i love you" the most to him throughout the day. Our hearts just overflow with love for him. Even though most days look the same they are filled with so much laughter, delight and love. It is fun to watch Ezra explore his world and discover new things.
