8 months!

This sweet boy was 8 months old on Friday! How can it be that he is already this old!? I told Andrew the other day that Ezra just melts me. He is such a lover=boy...he loves to wrap his arms around my neck and burrow into my collar bone or neck! I love this.
Here are some of Ezra's 8 month facts:
1. He gets cuter each day.
2. As you can see, his new favorite thing is to sit and pull things out of boxes or baskets all by himself! He loves to play and is a great independent player...all he needs are some options, and he is happy for a long time!
3. For the past few nights, Ezra has been sleeping WONDERFULLY...like for 12 hours. And not waking until 6 to eat. This is fabulous on so many levels.
4. Ezra wants to crawl - especially to keep up with his older sister. So far, he can seal flop - backwards. This doesn't do much for him except move him all over the room! If I leave the room, for just a second, he will end up on the other side so quickly!
5. Ezra does not like getting in his car seat. Although, Evie knows this, and wants to help, so she gets in her seat and says," Here I am, Ezra!"
6. I have tried to give Ez some "puffs" to gnaw on and gum up, but he doesn't do real well with these and ends up gagging a lot.
7. We went for a hike yesterday and borrowed a friend's hiking back pack for Ez. Evie and Ezra both got to ride in their respecive backpacks and Ezra LOVED this! He was talking away and even fell asleep --- a good sign that it was comfortable!
8. Ez stlll loves to eat - all foods.
9. Still no teeth for his this boy.
10, Loves his bouncer! Ezra loves to jump in the bouncy seat! This is a lot of exercise :)

We just love this guy. Happy 8 months, sweet boy.
