Mischief

This is what happens when the house becomes awfully quiet!!
















Zeke's has turned into such a little dancer. Whenever he hears a beat he starts bopping up and down, its very cute!
I was playing music on my laptop and that's what he's looking at, trying to figure out where the music was coming from. =)

Warning: Video may cause dizziness!

Zeke got a walker yesterday and had a little trouble keeping up with it at first but today its all he wants to do! Stand up and walk with the walker...crash into something...grump out of frustration cause he cant go anywhere...I turn him around and he's off again!

Here's a little video of him in action, two actually!





While I was waiting for these videos to upload Ezekiel was eating lunch. I gave him a peg to play with cause he loves them! (??) I figured out if I pegged them on a part of the highchair they fly in the air...he thought it was quite funny!

FUNNY STORY!!

Oh my goodness, this is funny! Kinda gross but funny!

So I give Zeke time with his nappy off every day, he loves crawling around with no nappy on. Yesterday I took his nappy off just before bath time and he was crawling around like a crazy little boy all in the lounge room, his bedroom and the bathroom.

He'd crawl around the corner and come back and crawl around the corner and crawl back laughing and carrying on.

I went into the bathroom to run the bath and I said to Jeremy, "Oh, there's water all over the floor, what's that from?" not even thinking that Zeke has weed all over the floor and Jer replies, "Oh, you know what it is? Ezekiel has weed on the floor."

At that moment Zeke comes crawling into the bathroom as fast as he could possible crawl and he just slides across the bathroom floor on his tummy through all his wee and he's laughing as he did it!

I was like, "Ohhhhhhh.....GROSS!"

I picked him up bt the hands to stand up and he's feet are slipping and sliding EVERYWHERE and he thought it was great.

Lucky it was bathime!!

Mum bought Zeke an Elmo chair today which is just adorable. It giggles and vibrates when you lean on the back of the chair. When Zeke woke up this morning I popped him in it 5 minutes after he got up, which was a bad idea because he kinda got scared of it cause he was half asleep I think. So the whole day he would literally crawl so far around it and just stare at it! By the end of the day though he was actually touching it!

Here's a video of when I first put him in it.

Also, Jer took some pics of him in the bath tonight.

We finally caught a sad face! It's such a sad little face but I couldnt stop laughing when I saw it cause we were finally able to get it on camera! I was out when Jer was bathing him tonight but apparently he kept wanting to stand up in the bath and Jer was telling him off and he kept dropping the bottom lip & Jer got it.

He actually drops the bottom lip way better than in this picture!

He's so cute!

We're back!

Not that we really went anywhere, we were just flat out with our annual 'History Makers' conference last week at church.

Things are all well in Bendigo.

We're just waiting on the 'official' approval with our finance and then nothing else needs to be done until the settlement date which is the 26th of November.
So we'll pack up everything for the last time for a long while which will be very nice.
It'll be a great feeling to be able to call our house 'our own home!'

Ezekiel is well. He's sleeping really well at night. Last week he slept all through the night for 3 nights in a row which was very timely having the conference on. I was able to get lots of rest and a great nights sleep. He's only waking once usually which is great!

Day time naps arent going so great at the moment, he's not great at self settling again so I've had a sleep lady named, Lyn, come over and help with strategies and hints to help him learn to self settle!

Ezekiel is growing at a rapid rate. He's saying so many new sounds and says 'dadda' all the time now. He says 'mum' and 'bubba' too...and the last week I've been working on 'ta' (our version of thanks) which he's picked up really well!

He's getting stronger on his feet...no signs of walking yet but he has been standing up momentarily the last few days. It wont be long.

I've booked Zeke into swimming lessons starting this Friday for 9 weeks at 9:45am for half an hour. I'm so excited about taking him! I'll have to take mum with me to get lots of photos of us in the water!

His favorite thing to do in the bath at the moment is bend over and put his face in the water. He thinks it's so funny along with sticking his mouth under the running tap!

His personality is continuing to develop....he's become little 'Mr. Attitude' the last week. Whenever we take things away from him, tell him off or if he gets frustrated he'll let out this mighty big groan with a really nasty little face. On the weekend he was trying to pick up 2 blocks in one hand and couldnt do it so he screamed and threw them down on the ground!

Oh man, what kinda child do we have on our hands!? he he...

Ezekiel is 10 months on Sunday which means ONE in 2 months! Arhhhh! I can't believe it!

Well I'll leave you with this cute video. Every single day he gets this excited if not more...all over his bath time! =)

Thanks for your patience...

Thanks for waiting. This week has been an incredibly busy week for Mommy and Daddy. They are at the HistoryMakers Conference at church. And its almost over. Then I'll be able to play with Mom and Dad all weekend! When it's over, I'll put more pictures and videos of me on here. I'm incredibly cute. Now you can see how I get all the older girls to pick me up!
