I'm 1/2 years old!

Ezra turned 6 months old yesterday! The time has flown and Ezra has accomplished so much! He has survived 2 surgeries, countless doctors visits, and racked up somewhere in the ballpark of 50 grand in bills (thank you insurance)!

He has enjoyed visits from family, seen a lot of the sights, and endured some freezing cold weather. He has gained 7 pounds and grown 7 inches. He has a smile that melts his Mom's heart, and a laugh that always keeps his Daddy coming back for more. He really likes to exercise, especially kicking his feet. He loves songs such as "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" (he gets to be the spout) and "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" because they have actions.

He also for some reason loves "The Chapel Doors Seem to Say to Me". Every time I do the Shhh! Be still! part he gets a huge grin on his face. He holds his own bottle, loves to eat cereal and is diving into the world of veggies quite well.

He loves toys, especially ones with tags or that make noise/music. He sleeps through the night, takes long naps and is always a happy camper. He lost all of his hair, and grew most of it back.

He loves to eat his fingers and suck on his toes.

He often talks to himself and us (especially while eating), and even gives an occasional scream. We have loved every minute with him and look forward to the next six months!

The next six months will be even more fun! Hopefully he's done with surgeries for a long time!
