Another first
Zeke has his first ear infection. AND it's a double ear infection. He has been a little more fussy, had a runny nose, and a little bit of a cough since Monday. Yesterday he refused to nurse each time I tried. So after him not eating for 7 hours, I called the dr. He is now on a schedule of ibuprofen, tylenol, and a prescription. Hopefully, he will be feeling better soon!
Christmas...
finally came for Zeke! So, we are slacker parents. But we figure he won't really remember it anyway. He is really enjoying his gift as you can see from the pictures and video below.

5 months!
Zeke turned 5 months yesterday! It is so weird to think about how it was a year ago this time when we told everyone that we were pregnant. How fun it was when Spence announced there would be a new SummitLIFE member. I can't believe that now a year later, we have our little man and he is such a joy!
Zeke has gotten into a MUCH better sleeping routine. For those of you that know what we have been through and especially those that saw me last Sunday (I was up 11 times in a 5 hour period Sat. night), this is a HUGE blessing. No, this does not mean that he is sleeping through the night. He is still waking up every 3-4 hours to eat, and more to the 3 hour side. But this is such an improvement that I am not complaining whatsoever.
Zeke began eating bananas this week. And wow does he love them! There is no wasting them at all. Just an update on his pooping for those that care, we have stopped rice cereal and are going to start oatmeal, thanks to some good advice from friends. And we haven't had any problems since, but boy do bananas not look as nice on the flipside.
Since we do not go to the dr until 6 months, you will just have to wait until then for stats.
With out further ado, pictures from this week...
Zeke loves this and has quickly learned how to hit the drum and piano. He either sits in his bumbo or we are working on him sitting with little support from someone behind him.
This picture explains itself.

Zeke hung out with his dad this morning. Doesn't he look like such a big boy?
Check him out chilling on the couch.

New Years
We hung out at the Doherty's for New Years. No, we did not make it to 12, but we did make it longer than the Gaston's! Kelly and Evan also joined the baby parade for some great hanging out and competing. The guys technically won, but really the girls did because the boys had three extra team members.
Here are the dads and their boys.
Here they are just chilling (please note how huge Z looks!)
This is how Z and H greet each other, with a chest bump

Z this week
Zeke got a pottery barn chair from Nana and Grandpa for Christmas. He looks like a guy just sitting back watching the game.
Thanks Nana and Grandpa!
Z decided to help his dad feed him. I missed him grabbing the spoon and shoving it into his mouth. I also missed him pulling his bib to his mouth and sucking on it. This kid can eat!
Zeke's cousin Elizabeth came from California for Christmas. She LOVED hanging out with him.
Will preferred to hang with Spence instead of Zeke
So, we have been having issues. I think the cereal has stopped up Zeke. He didn't go for a week. I called the dr and they said try prune juice. You can see from his expression how much he liked it.For those that care, we ended up giving him Karo syrup with his milk and he gave us an explosion like no other with in 24 hours, we are taking it a little more slowly with the cereal for now.

Meredith Girls
I am totally a Meredith girl. I love pearls, daisies, tshirts, and wearing an onyx. One of the things that I loved the most were my big sis. I got to see Lindsay and Melissa for lunch last week. Yay! They are both pregnant and expecting boys! I can't wait to meet Alexander and Brennen!
