4 months until 2 years old!

HOLY SMOKES! Really I have an almost 2 year old. Wow! Zeke is so so fun right now. Everyday is a blast. He is hilarious and has us rolling laughing. At other times he is precious and sweet. He talks so much and puts together things that blow me away everyday. This isn't a doctors appointment month, so we will just have to wait until August to find out those stats.
Some things he is currently doing are:
*loves crafts, he goes to the pantry where we keep those supplies and asks "color"
*he also loves snacking and goes to the pantry saying "cookie" or "cracker"
*thinks Ben should be everywhere he is at all times
*puts his hands together to pray, says pray or "God, God, God" to pray and then "Amen" when he is finished
*repeats after us recently it has been "hot mama", "bastard" (but meaning mustard), "I got it", "see ya"
*loves reading books, his favorites right now are Go, Dog, Go (he walks around saying Hello, Goodbye); an Elmo book that talks about balls (he walks around saying High Ball, Low Ball), and the story of Jonah (he's all about the BIG Pish)
*completely self suffiecient with feeding
*sits on his potty, but has not actually used it
*likes to wash his hands
*wants to be outside more than inside
*really into songs right now- Itsy Bitsy Spider, 5 Little Speckled Frogs, the Name song are favorites
*Still obsessed with airplanes, but now points out buses and trucks, especially likes being about to say "Big _____"
*names our neighbors, friends, and family through out the day
*is enjoying learning time each day where we read a Bible story and do a craft/activity

riding a tractor at a park

so big going down slides by himself

playing in a neighbor's sandbox

we were getting ready one morning and noticed Zeke was missing and quiet,

this is how we found him

He had a blast at the farm at the museum

forget about the little slides, he wanted the "BIG slide"
