Last week end

So now that the week end is almost here..

let me catch you up on our last week end!

Friday:

Went downtown with Tony, George (his brother) and me.

Oh and Billy Ray Cyrus made a quick appearance. ;)

Saturday:

I went to a Baby Sign class while Tony and George watched Ezra.

It was awesome. We all just relaxed at home for George's last day here.

Sunday:

Ezra's 1st haircut!!

Bought Ezra new shoes.

Went to the park.

this is life

I love where I’m at in life. I love that I’m experiencing the joy of raising a son, and at a young age too. I really look forward to the excitement of finding out I’m pregnant again.. someday. I’m married to the best husband I could ever imagine. I love that we don’t have everything we want . . . but we dream. A lot. We know someday we’ll have more than we have now, but we also know that life isn't about what we have. Life is too busy. The other day I was praying for God to bring peace and rest to our family. We need to find that daily quiet time with God and with each other. When you are so peaceful, and so rested.. life seems SO GOOD. Ha.. speaking of peace and rest..(side note) I can’t tell you how many nights in the last week a cricket woke me from mid sleep .. chirping at the top of his lungs. Is that what you call it.. chirping..? Each time I've had to get up and go sleep in the living room. It’s ridiculous. . he’s hiding underneath the baseboard. I hope he dies soon.. poor lil guy. OR if he comes out.. I’ll gladly take him outside. Life is good.. we've come so far!!

PS- Just found a cricket belly up on my bedroom floor. Pray that was my midnight friend!!

Our 12 step program

Ezra is now the member of our local 12 step program. ;) Hehe.

Yesterday Ezra took 12 steps with NO help. He's trying so hard and walking all over the place. We're so excited and proud of our little boy. New talents other than walking ... 1. attempts to whistle. 2. says 'uh oh' when he drops something. 3. calls for 'deedee' in the bath and knocks on the wall for him to come. Now here are some random pictures.

Ezra's having a bad hair day! ;)

Sweet Boy.

Don't turn your back on 'em for a SECOND!

(at least not around a container of wipes.)

We took family pictures & Ezra's 1 year pictures on Saturday. I'm so happy with the way they turned out! These are a few of my favs. (before they've been cropped and all)..

What else have we been doing?

swimming

tending to facial bruises

spending time with my family

taking walks

watching kiddos

relaxing

jumping on pogo sticks
