My 6-month-old "Little Man"

Posted by Aprille on Wednesday, March 23, 2011, In : Baby Ezra

I realized this morning that I've taken to calling Ezra "Little Man" much more than I call him anything else...

I'm not really sure how or when that started happening...it just did. He's not really a baby anymore, he's growing up so fast!

He can sit up on his own, VERY well...I actually get a lot of compliments/comments on how well he can sit up on his own without falling over. It's my personal opinion that it's partially due to the fact that I carry or "wear" him every where we go, and he's ra...

Ezra's First Haircut

Posted by Aprille on Tuesday, March 22, 2011, In : Baby Ezra

"LOOK AT ALL THAT HAIR!!!!"

That's what most people say when they first see Ezra.

A few people have even said, "Wow! He needs a haircut already!"

I loved my long-haired hippie baby and I really didn't want to cut it until he was at least a year old.

But it kept growing...and growing...and growing!

It was constantly in his eyes...

I knew that if I ...

New Blog Features...hopefully! :)

I've also added an email subscription form...ba...

Ezra starting solids :-)

Our journey towards "real" food has begun. So far Ezra has eaten bananas (mixed with my milk). It's been a really positive experience! We tried jarred bananas but they were a no-go.

I've also given him some harder foods to gum and suck on. Celery, honeydew, and apples have been a big hit! Now if we can just get those teeth to break through!

Oh yes... I am. His name is Canon EOS Rebel XS! He was a gift from my husband...a gift to occupy my thoughts and time while my True Love is away fighting in this war.

With My Rebel, I can capture clearly everyday moments and freeze them forever:
