EZRA
One word to describe this little guy would be~ laid-back. Here I thought Zahra was easy and a good baby but Ezra makes her look like a monster. Okay not really but let me tell you Ezra is such a sweet calm little man. As a newborn he got the whole schedule down right away and was never awake at night time other to eat. However, for the first 2 months he was on a 2.5 hour day schedule. He was quite the eater during the day but amazingly he started sleeping consistently from 8pm-7am with one dreamfeed at 10:30ish (before I went to bed)when he was 6 weeks old! Zahra was more around 9 weeks old when she was consistently sleeping until morning. Now he is sleeping until 8am and wakes up as happy as can be! Ahhhhh I know I have said it before but I LOVE babywise! Anyway, back to Ezra. He has never been a fan of tummy time and if you put his legs up to his tummy he will always have a big ol' toot for you. He hasn't really ever peed or pooped on me. Here I thought having a boy that would happen more but Z got both me and Anil several times when she was a baby with her projectile pee and poop. While we are on the subject..poop- Ezra hardly ever does it about once every 5 to 6 days now. I think one of his favorite all time things to do when he is awake is watch his big sis. He just will watch her and will turn in every direction to be able to see her. Note he also does this to the TV when it is on. So I think his second favorite thing to do is watch TV. As much as I try to not let him...he always get a few minutes in a day while his big sis is watching one of her shows. He even got upset at my Mom when she was trying to prevent him from watching it once..oh dear! I can't wait until we can start the signing videos. He is going to love them! Another thing he does is study everything very intensely...he really looks at things. He is so quiet and honestly I will set him down to do something and almost forget about him because he is just laying there studying something being quiet as a mouse however with that said he will let you know when he is mad. It doesn't happen to often but he has a high pitched scream that can almost make my ears bleed. He also loves having his hands together and rubs them together. However, I am finding his fingers in his mouth more and more these days and am really worried I am going to have another finger sucker. I wish he would keep taking his pacifier they are so much easier to take away.
So Ezra's new things that he started this week was being able to move abit in his walker he got for Christmas and then tonight he found his toes and was grabbing at them. He also discovered his pointy little tongue and likes to stick it out at you while you talk to him and its not just a little bit he really sticks it out. You can't help but laugh and I think thats why he does it. His 4 month appointment is this week. I am very curious to see what his weight and height is. He seems so big and tall to me but we will see! Oh another thing he started this week was watch us eat very intensely. I was really hoping to start feeding his cereal more around 6 months old but I don't think him or his Daddy is going to let me wait that long. Okay now for a couple pictures of my handsome little man.
Look at that tongue.
handsome man but the pink bumbo is throwing me off.I just learnt that they have covers for these things...I think I might have to invest in one. We used the bumbo with Z for a very long time..as a portable seat to eat in- when we went to the park or wherever.
New Years Eve with his Oma.
I have a feeling him and his big cousin, Blake, are going to be best buds!
Do you think he could get those 2 fingers in any more?
