First Pair of Shoes...

Stan and I took Ezequiel to the mall this past Saturday and we got him his first pair of shoes. I will be posting a picture soon. He is getting so big. He can't walk yet but he pulls himself upon toys and gets on his feet like he is going to stand. Silly man! We also took him to the park and played on the swings and I slid down the slide with him. He laughed and smiled the whole time. It was great fun!

Look at all those teeth...

He scrunches is nose and sniffles the air, he is so funny!

9 Months today...

So are little mijo is 9 months old today. He weighs 22lbs and solid. He army crawls everywhere, he picks food up with his little fingers, loves bath time, waves backwards-at himself and says ma-ma. Ezequiel is growing up to be such a loving, caring person. We have a neighbor who has a little girl that is 13 months old and she came over the other day and Ezequiel got a big ol' smile on his face and army crawled as fast as he could to get to her and lifted his head up to her with an open mouth- to give her a kiss. It was so cute. Stan always says that she is his future wife. We'll see :). We are so proud of our little guy. Learning new things everyday and is just one happy kid. WE are truly blessed.
Thank you God for giving us this precious boy to love and care for.

STRESSED!

Stan and I have been feeling a little stressed these days... Just wanted to ask for some prayers. Thank you

8 Months Old...

Ezequiel turned 8 months old on Monday. He certainly is changing with every breath. He sits up all by himself, he is a grab man, meaning he grabs everything he sees. He scoots around on his belly, hilarious... I told Stan that we need to start baby proofing the house because before we know it he will be following us everywhere. He is more fun with every minute.

Arms Up...

Some of you may know that Ezequiel has been watching this learning video series called, Baby You Can Read, and today we thought it might have paid off. There is this one part on the video that says, "arms up, arms up," then it shows different kids putting there arms up. Well, my mom sends me this picture and in the subject she says, "he did it." I called her immediately and asked if she told Ezequiel to put his arms up and she said no. But this picture is still cute and I think he is still learning internally. He is so smart! We love you Mijo.

Great Facial Expressions, But Still So Cute...

My parents took me and Ezequiel to Native New Yorker last night and Ezequiel looks like such a big boy sitting in a high chair. Of course we went through the whole ritual of giving him a toy then him dropping it and over and over... this happened only a few times until papa and I were tired of picking them up so we gave him the menu. He had just eaten his food but when our food came he was eying mine like he had never eaten before, so I gave him little pieces of curly fry and he munched on it like he had a mouthful and he made humming noises. It was so funny and cute. He is growing up so fast and he is getting so smart. To think he will be 8 months old next week is just crazy.
