First Steps

Ez took his first steps on Friday night at our ward Halloween party. I was eating a sucker I stole from some little kid (J/K, that is something Ben would do...) and he really wanted a taste. RicAnn held him up and he started walking to get the sucker and took 2 steps by himself. We kept trading the sucker and he kept taking 2-4 steps to get a taste. This morning we tried the walking without the sucker incentive and he took 5 or 6 steps all by himself. He is very proud of himself. We have it on video and we'll post it soon.

Bubble Bath

Just doin what I know best...being cute!
I love baby bums!
"What did he say?!?
"More water please!"

This is Ezra in his first bubble bath. Ezra loves bath time and now with bubbles he loves it even more (I didn't think it was possible.) Anytime he hears water running in the bathroom he makes a dash for it and tries to climb in. Then when it's time to get out he is a very sad little boy, the only one who makes him happy is the baby in the mirror. Man, I love being a mom!

Fall Break

Well we are now finishing up Dave's 2nd Fall Break...or should I say 2nd to last Fall Break! We had quite the adventures.

First we went to the Plymouth Apple Mill. It was perfect weather to start out the fun fall activity. We went on a hayride, ate fresh donuts and cider, pet the animals, and played on the pumpkins.

From Wednesday to Friday Ezra and I had to play on our own. Dave was in Utah taken care of some business. I don't think Ez had as much fun with just me. Everyday he would crawl to our bedroom door and knock while asking for "daddy." I think that Dave missed his "bestest buddy" also. They are quite the pair. I guess we need to have a lil' girl so I'm not so lonely. (Now I just have to convince Dave)

On Saturday we went to another great Michigan Game. We played Purdue, we won 48-21! Ezra is 100% boy, he absolutely loves football. He stood at the rail cheered, laughed, and danced. After the game we headed to Ohio to meet some friends at Cedar Pointe, but we didn't make it. Dave repeatedly said "I hate Ohio!" and "Who taught you how to read a map? You need to earn your map merit badge." If you haven't guessed, I got us lost so we never made it :( So instead we had the Fausett kids over for cookies and a movie. Ezra loved having someone to play with. In the end we had lots of fun!

My favorite Tree.

I don't know why, but every time we drive past this tree I say to Dave, I love that tree! I think that it may have to do that the leaves are half red and half green. It is so eye catching when you drive into the parking lot. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Ezra's 1st Michigan Game!

GO BIG BLUE!! We are officially fans for life!

Ezra went to his first Michigan football game! He and Dave have been preparing for it all week. If you say "Touchdown!" Ez throws his hands in the air. If you say "Number One" Ez puts up one little finger and bounces it around.This is Ezra in the car on the way to the game! We were all dancing and cheering to "The Victors." I think that he was excited.
This is the 3 of us in front of the big house. (The kid who took it had a little too much to drink.)
This is Dave and Ezra sitting and watching the game. Ezra loved it when the crowd would cheer. We would join right in clapping and squealing!
This is the 2 boys loving life at the "Big House!"
This is Ezra and I sittin in the shade to cool from the 90 degree weather.

Michigan played Eastern Michigan University. We won 33-22! Sad to say that we only got to stay for the 3rd quarter. It was way to hot for any of us to handle. It has been about 85-90 all week! Well the game was fun and now Ez can say that he's been to a game in the "Big House." A tradition Dave wants to keep :)
