My site has been broken, so here’s an old post for now. I’ll get more pictures up soon!

So much has happened since I last posted! It makes it hard to sit down to write because I want to write down all the details. But I’ll start from today, so I may never get around to writing!
Ezekiel is two months old. He’s a super active baby and it’s been more work than I could have anticipated – emotionally and physically. As he grows, I’m enjoying him more. It’s so wild to watch him become a person. He is so much like Bryan. He wakes up and stretches and sleeps like Bryan. He loves to be awake though and fights sleep. Even though it’s hard, I try not to worry about it much. He will figure out sleep at some point. And for now, I’ll hold him and baby wear so that he can sleep.
We have been trying to stay busy since about five weeks when I started feeling more comfortable with getting him out of the house by myself. We have been going to any baby events I can find. We go to mom’s group at the breastfeeding resource center. It’s a nice time to just hang out and talk to other moms. A lot of the other babies are the same age as him. I’ve gotten more support than I would have anticipated there. My favorite thing to go to is Communication Junction’s Sign and Sing classes. We learn sign language together and read books. I’m so excited to sign him up for one of their classes in a couple months. It would be awesome if he could start signing soon so I know what he needs.
He also loves the water. He is so calm in the tub during bath time. I have already looked into signing him up for swimming lessons, which he can start at six months!
His movements are getting more intentional too. He can move his fist so that he tries to push his pacifier back in when it falls out (sometimes). He can roll from his tummy to his back. He is intentional about hitting and kicking his toys on his activity mat. He has crazy good head control. He has gotten really good at smiling.
I’m looking forward to going back to work even though it will be a huge adjustment.
And the real reason for my post until I can get down more of my thoughts… to spam you with pictures!
