Doesn't It Break Your Heart

Ezekiel is just plain sick and there is NOTHING I can do to make it better! It just makes both of us very sad.

Papa & Mimi Must Be Coming

It never fails that right before Papa & Mimi get to see Ezekiel he gets sick. So here we are today- Ezekiel fighting a nasty cough, runny nose, and feeling just plain crumby. He has been whinny, crying, and just miserable. Here he is watching a movie- Mommy's attempt at trying to ease a little of his discomfort.

Keeping It Clean

Ezekiel loves to sweep, swiffer, rake, etc., so this week end he had a great time mowing the grass with Daddy. Together they raked up the trimmings, piled them up, and threw them away. Ezekiel was extremely upset when the job was done and is anxiously waiting for the next time he can help Daddy!

Fun Times

Sunday night we were able to spend the evening with our friends the Halls. Ezekiel had so much fun with his friends. Here is Ezekiel, Chloe, and Lexie enjoying our weekly tradition of popcorn, juice, and a movie!

Not So Funny In 10 Years...

Splish, Splash

It seems lately that anytime there is a puddle around Ezekiel finds them and splashes until the water is gone or mom stops him. SO......today after quite a bit of rain- we went puddle hopping. He had free reign to run, jump, sit in, splash in, or just stand in what ever puddle called to him. It was a fun way to appreciate the wet weather.

Happy Valentine's Day

Today we spent the day showering our friends with love. I decided to take Ezekiel around to give his friends a bag of Valentines cookies that we made together. Ezekiel loved giving the cookies and seeing all his friends. He also made Daddy a special valentine and his own bag of cookies. What a great day we had! Ezekiel even got a sucker from a friend which he LOVED and devoured!

Blessings Abound

The Olson family blessed Baby Case with a few gifts prior to his/her arrival. Due to the fact that Baby Case can't do the honors his/herself, Daddy and Ezekiel got to partake in the pleasure of opening the gifts. Ezekiel definitely has Daddy's joy when it comes to presents. Thanks Olson family! Baby Case is so blessed by your gifts!!!!!

A Beautiful Day

We had a lovely day at the park on Tuesday. Ezekiel had such a fun time with all his friends it was tough to get him to go home. He is still asking to go to the park. Here are a few highlights of the day.

Ezekiel can now climb up, unassisted unto the equipment.

Ezekiel and his friends.

Mommy, her friend, and Baby Case.

Gummy Bear

Ezekiel LOVES to jump and bounce. He reminds me of the old cartoon Gummy Bears- "bouncing here and there and everywhere"

Mr. Independent

Ezekiel is growing more and more independent as the days go on. Today he spent part of the morning playing on his own outside and in the livingroom not requiring mommy to sit and watch or be a part. He also loves to say "Ezekiel do it". This comes many times a day when he wants to do something and does not want your help. Time seems to be flying by and with each moment he grows in so many ways.
