Well, we did it. Twelve months. The first year of this guy's life in monthly photographs. I look back from the beginning and am blown away at the change. He's a teeny little man now with a budding personality. He's doesn't walk on his own yet, but is a crawling fiend. He's stretching out but I guess he's still rocking the baby fat around his knees cause I can't believe he can crawl as fast as he can even on hard surfaces. He's into pointing at everything...especially animals. He's in love with dogs, probably cause his only cousin, so far, is one. He's ecstatic when he sees Fischer, even though Fischer is less than enthusiastic to share the spotlight with this little human.
His first official word is "anana" translated "banana" which he goes ga ga over, too. Actually, this kid loves eating, but he definitely has more of a sweet tooth even though he'll pretty much eat anything you put in front of him. He also says "ma ma" and "da da" and we think he knows what those mean. He seems to comprehend a lot more too. The fun part is that we've been attempting to teach him sign language which I was quite skeptical would work. But, it's actually working especially communicating around food.
(fast forward to 2018...So, it turns out that I never sent this post when I started writing it FIVE years ago!! In attempt to resurrect this blog, I found this sitting in the drafts folder. Oops. So if it sounds incomplete, it is. I definitely can't remember anything else about Ezra from when he was one so what is written above is all there is. But the pictures are what really matter, don't you think.)
