Ezra: Two Years

Oh my Ezra John, I can't believe that you'll be two years old tomorrow. It almost hurts my heart to look through your one year post. So many sweet memories, but so fast, so fast. You my sweet boy, my cuddle buddy, have changed so much in this past year!

You were just my little one year old!


But the rest of the summer flew by.


Flew by.


Flew by.


No matter what the situation, you were always our good sleeper!


Once you found your feet, you wanted to do everything Isaac did.


And much like him, your love for all things motorized grew exponentially!


You rarely go a minute without a little smile on your face.


And generally smile the most when you're getting down and dirty.
 
Also much like Isaac, you are obsessed with water.


As the 2nd boy, you wear a lot of hand me downs, but I swear I still dress you cute!


You enjoyed your first leaf pile, much to Daddy's dismay.


Uncle Levi and Aunt Bethany were super excited to have you as a ring bearer!


We learned too late how much you hate the cold.


But then, you kind of warmed up to it.


Had your first hair cut.


And first water park experience!


Proving once again, that you are definitely a water baby!


It needs to be said again and again, you have the most sweet spirit! And I just loved this shirt on you. Definitely a favorite, Laugh Out Loud is right.


Because really.


There were some big changes this year, like less room to cuddle with me.


And you moving into the crib . . . when most kids your age were transitioning to toddler beds!


You didn't really know what was going on with Miriam, but you loved on my belly!


Your relationship with your brother only continued to strengthen.


And then quite suddenly, you yourself were a big brother!


Since Miriam's arrival, you've shown us what a little stinker you can be.


But of course, we love you all the same.

I can't wait to watch your relationship with your sister grow, because you dote on her so.


Ezra John, we love you, so much.
