3 months old!!!

 What a month this has been for our Ezra!  This month he "woke up"  No longer does he just wake up to eat or poop, but he is awake to give us smiles and even laughs.  It turns out he is quite ticklish!  He giggles and squirms every time I have to change his clothes.  Ezra loves laying on his playmat looking in the mirror and he even has began swatting at his toys and pulling the music pull on his swing.  He loves taking baths.  Two weeks ago Ezra began sleeping through the night!  Do not ask for any advice, I do not think we have much to do with it.  After Jerald puts him in the best supper swaddle ever, he rocks him to sleep for 20 minutes and puts him in the co-sleeper in our room.  Usually Ezra is sleeping on his own until 6ish - or even later.  If he does wake-up, a pat to the tummy or a quick feeding will settle him back down.  We are feeling great!!!  Most importantly, Ezra has this amazing smile.  If you can get him to do it, his smile lights up his whole face.

Tummy Time and other Ezra cuteness!

At work with Daddy

 We visited Daddy at work today to see his new office.  It is big and really nice.  The boys favorite part was of course the giant white board.  Ezra slept through the whole thing and Justin wore his pirate hat.

Sibling Gym Class

This week is school vacation for Seth so we are trying to find some fun things to do to keep us busy.  This morning, Jerald took Seth & Justin to a magic show.  They had so much fun.  Once home all the boys were describing all the magic tricks to me.  This afternoon, I took Seth & Justin to a sibling gym class.  Lots of fun!

BU Hockey Game

 Tonight we took the boys to their very first hockey game.  We won use of a box, clubhouse with 8 seats and free parking through Seth's school auction.  What a fun night!  We invited Uncle Jono, who brought two of his friends, and our friend Maya and her Dad Rich.  We ate dinner in the VIP room and then enjoyed the game in our private box.  It was great having room for the kids to move around.  They were all really interested in the game.  We stayed until dessert was served back in the VIP room and then headed home.  BU even won!  A very fun outing.

Playmat fun

Justin and the Pirate Hat

 Anyone who knows Seth & Justin know that they are obsessed with Pirates.  This is all thanks to Pa, during thanksgiving 2009 he started telling Seth the story of Peter Pan and it has snowballed from there.  Fast forward to today - where Justin loves wearing his pirate hat.  He wears it so often I don't even realize it is there.  The other day we were food shopping and I didn't even notice Justin had it on - people are smiling at us and giggling - and I had no idea.  Justin even likes to sleep with it on!

Grandma and Pa Visit

We had another wonderful - but too short visit with Grandma and Pa this weekend.  Unfortunately, a lot of our time was taken up with dealing with icicles on our house and the ever increasing leaks caused from their melting.  Thanks to Mom and Dad for all their help battling the ice!

Note:  the 2nd and 3rd pictures were taken by Pa and his new fancy shmancy camera.

Chinese New Year at Seth's School

 The wonderful things Seth learns at school....  this week they were learning Chinese for Chinese New Year.  If I asked Seth to do something, like "please put on his shoes."  He would just sit there and tell me "please put on your shoes means sit and do nothing in Chinese."  That is typical Seth!

Sweaters...

Here is Ezra keeping warm with a sweater his great-grandma knit for Uncle Joshy - what amazing work!!!
