Christmas Pictures

Look at the concentration! He unwrapped a couple presents on Christmas Eve, but he actually wasn't interested in unwrapping on Christmas.

He was interested in the toys he got though. He found his little walker/car first thing and we had to take it away because he didn't want anything else after that, it was too fun!

Riding along on my automobile!

Cheeeeeese!

This was him playing with his giraffe and he found a button that plays music. He kept dancing to it, it was really cute!

Pre Christmas Pics

Here is his reaction when we finally got batteries for the train and turned it on. He just stared at it, unless we turned it off, then he got mad.
He doesn't really like to wear hats, but he looks so darn cute in them!

Our little elf, what a cutie!

Oh Christmas Tree

These are some pictures from Zeke's first reaction to the Christmas tree! He did really well with the tree, tugged on the branches a little, but that was it.

Exploring Under Things

Here is Zeke getting abducted by a UFO!

Lately he thinks it is super fun to climb under (and up into) things. This is the first time he did it with his exersaucer. He also climbs under the table and up to a chair so you can't see him. I think he likes hiding, or getting stuck!

This was his latest one, climbing under his walker. He's pretty smart to figure out how to put his head up straight.

Over

Daddy put him in his walker but apparently he didn't want to put his legs in. It's funny how he acts like nothing is wrong, it's no big deal his foot is practically around his head.

Well he's not actually over something but he looks so cute standing by himself, I had to throw a couple of these in!

In

We put up the train but didn't have any batteries for it so at the time, the box was funner than the train. He acts like he is riding a sled or something!

Of course he pulled all of the toys out of his toy basket, that is the fun part. But then he climbed in the basket and thought that was fun. He looks huge in this picture.

We got a new baby backpack and Zeke thought it was so much fun to be stuck to daddy. He was giggling like crazy and was just so excited!

This picture is blurry but it captures the look he had.

Are you ready for some football

Zeke was in playing with Daddy. He got down and was playing on the floor.
Here he is posing for the camera again.


The cute part was Brigham was watching football and Zeke kept getting into it. He would stop and watch for a few minutes, then go back to playing.

He keeps looking up at the TV. I think we have a little football fan.

Tumble

Ezekiel is constantly pulling himself up to things now. He does really well getting up and down. When he does occassionally fall he just lays there like, hello, I fell.
It's cute to watch, almost as if he falls in slow motion.

He's such a good boy! He hardly ever cries, even when he gets hurt.

Hello Santa

On Saturday we took Ezekiel to see Santa for the first time. I wasn't sure if he'd be scared or excited. Especially because by the time we got there he was due for a nap 3 hours before. So he was good but not excited because he was soooo tired. He was mostly interested in the suit, especially the bells. He didn't cry and he didn't rip the hair out of Santa's beard like he does on our toy Santa. So it was a success!



The lamo's said we could take pictures but when we got there they would only allow us to take 2. So here they both are.

Here is Zeke at the end of the day fighting to stay awake. He made it on two 15 minute naps instead of at LEAST 2 hours of naps. So tired, but still so cute! He's such a good boy!

On the Move

Here is Ezekiel showing off his crawling skills. Of course he has time to stop and pose for the camera!

Ezekiel was playing so I went to make him a bottle, when I came back he was standing up playing. I left again to get the camera. He started to cry. As soon as he saw the camera he stopped crying and posed. He kept the same big smile the whole time the camera was out!

Cuddle Bug

Oh, this one really got me! His cute litte hand wrapped in Daddy's. He's so precious!

He snuggled a lot when he was a baby and then he stopped. But lately he has been quite snuggly again, and we love it!

Of course he will still stop and pose for the camera. He loves the camera!

He has been starting to cuddle up with his blanket at bedtime. He didn't have his blankie with him so he grabbed his towel and rubbed up to it. Not the best pictures but he's still super cute!

Baby Tigger

Besides his new fascination with walking, bouncing is definately his favorite. He bounces whenever and wherever he can. (Your arms until they die, your leg, head, excersaucer, jonny jumper ect.) I love the grasp he has, like he's riding a horse.

The wonderful thing about Tiggers, is Tiggers are wonderful things, their tops are made of rubber, their bottoms are made of springs.... I think his legs really are springs!

I guess the Winnie the Pooh theme really fits, he's just Tigger!

Wow, 10 months already!

So big, so smart, and so old! Zeke has been going crazy the last week with learning new things. He moved from the army scoot to crawling, mastered sitting himself up in one day, pulls himself up to everything and walks along the edges, and he wants to walk so badly, but still can't do that alone.

He still makes lots of cute faces all the time!

And this one shows how big he is getting. He's over 20 pounds, probably close to 25 now!

Happy Thanksgiving

He sleeps like this a lot lately. Now that he can sit and stand he doesn't go back to sleep very easily, he would rather play, then eventually he literally falls to sleep.

Here is his Thanksgiving feast! Just kidding, he ate a little bit of everything and liked it all.

Ben tried to convert him into a U of U fan, but obviously he doesn't like that idea. Go BYU!
