So Adorable

We were driving home from church today and I looked in the back seat and just fell in love even more with Ezekiel! He's just sooo cute and he was looking like such a big boy in his outfit today, so i thought I'd take a couple of pics and post them on here! He really is growing up at a rapid pace! I just LOVE HIM TO BITS :D

Big Blue Eyes

I took these pictures of Ezekiel today. If you look closely you can see his two little bottom teeth. :D

Splish Splash he was takin' a bath!

Ezekiel has discovered **SPLASHING** in the bath!! He gets quite excited about it too but in this video I've taken he doesnt show his excitement too much because he's too busy chewing on a bath toy!

By the way, we still dont know how to turn the video clips up the other way...it frustrates me! So you'll just have to turn your heads :)

I've got another one of him pulling himself up too & crawling around. It's a 1 minute clip but will take about 2 hours to upload. I have no idea why cause our internet is pretty quick. I'll upload it by the weekend.

Love yas.

Sleep over with Aunty Dana!

One of Ezekiel's many aunties, Dana, slept over last night and this morning Zeke insisted on being under the blankets with her, so I snapped a couple of pictures! He's favorite thing at the moment is sitting up and putting toys in his mouth and keeping them in there for ages!
He's also figured out this week how to crawl the 'right' way, which we think is very clever of him seeing as he should only be starting to commando crawl when he's 8 months...and he's 7 months and crawling properly already!
I keep telling Jeremy that he's clever like his mum! ha! :P

Our answer to sleepless nights...

TEETH!!!!

Yes...TEETH

Yesterday when my mum was babysitting Ezekiel she actually noticed that his two bottom teeth were just visible.

You can just see them and you definately feel them. It feels too long to be just one tooth so he must be getting two at once.

Poor little guy...he must be in a lot of pain!

Explains the waking in the night with lots of grizzles & crying, so I'm trying to be more paitent with him and just love him rather than get frustrated that he keeps waking so often!

Arh, we still have a whole mouth full to go!

The joys of parenthood right?! he he...

I am very excited he's finally got some teeth though AND he attempted crawling the 'right way' yesterday...he's growing up way too fast!!

This will keep the fans happy...

being a father...

With all these photos and and videos of Ezekiel we've been posting, you'll notice something in the background...or at least there is something you should've been noticing. Have a look. Did you find it?
Yep, there are two more people that actually live here! Meg and I! Amazing! After all this news of Zeke, you must be just craving news of what I am up to. Certinaly you must care a little bit. C'mon, don't you want to know? What if I pay you...
Too bad, I'll tell you anyways.

I've realized something. Since December 14th, I've ceased to exist. Yep, its true. I no longer have any fucntion of my own in society any more. I am no longer known by the name of Jeremy Dale Dyck. I have a new name. Ezekiel's Dad. When people talk to me, its only to ask how Ezekiel is doing. When I talk to other people, I tell them how Ezekiel is doing. I am no longer my own entity. Some of you may know this phenomenon that I speak of. The medical community has long since recognized it and have titled it "Identityectomy", but alas there is no cure.

But being a father has not been too bad. The sleepless nights (Meg here: "Oh, please Jeremy...all FOUR of them!!) haven't been too bad and haven't really amented me fectally...wait..amented...thats not right...umm...haven't hurt my brain too bad. Now I have slipped into another medical condition known as "Fatherhood" which is not only incurable, but unfortunatly permanent. Now such thoughts occur to me like,

"That supporting wall would be better held with Duct Tape",

OR

"I'll just stick my head into this cupboard directly beneath the open cupboard door"

OR

"Why would I stop for gas when I still have 1/64th of a tank left?"

The only good news I can glean from this is that I still have the ability to recognize it. Soon, ...too soon...I will caught in that downward spiralling loop of telling silly jokes, taking 450 pictures of random items, and napping in between rounds of Uno.

Don't cry for me, Argentina...or whoever you are. Like I said, I haven't reached that point yet. The doctor says I have a few good years left. And then...well...ummm...I forget what he said would happen. Oh well...

Hey did you hear the one about the vacuum cleaner? Never mind, it sucks...


Uh-OH! Its' too late!!!
