One month older and wiser too!

Ezra turned one month on Sunday and Bob and I had our own little photo shoot to show off how much he has grown. At his one month check up he weighed in at 9 lbs. and was 21.5 inches. The doctor was really impressed with how alert and strong he was.

Ezra loves to sit up like a big boy! It gives him more to look at.

I've been wanting to share a few little things about Ezra since most of you are not around to get to know him yourself. First off he has crazy hands. It reminds me of the claw from Liar Liar. It's as if he has no control or at least it's obvious he doesn't realize he has control over them. He constantly grabs at his face or gets his fingers stuck in his mouth. He probably thinks we are awful parents thinking that it's us torturing him. It's usually a pain when he is trying to "help" himself eat, or when he wakes himself up, or the fact that it is impossible to keep his hands wrapped in the blanket. I just can't wait to see what he does with them when he realizes they are his own hands.

I love this one! He looks like a diaper model trying to be an underwear model!

Ezra also hates being dirty, but what he hates more than that is having his bum changed. He screams the whole time until it is over, and there is no sense in trying to calm him. (Actually he has been a little better about it lately.) He also loves to stare at his dad. As if Bob needed his head to get any bigger over our little guy. He is also really smart and is forced to spend his awake time with mom learning. We practice our non-crying sounds, learn colors, objects and even letters. I know you think I'm silly, but just watch, he is going to be so smart! Well this post is getting a bit long so I will have to save the rest for another time.

Here is Ezra singing "Do as I'm Doing" with Mommy!

This shows Ezra's careful balance of old man and mullet hair!

P.S. We had Emily Russ take some family photos of us, so when we get them we will be sure to post them for you!
