Happy Birthday Uncle Rik

WOW! Uncle Rik, you are 30! That is old.

Disclaimer: This post was totally Zeke's idea and his mommy had nothing to do with what he wanted to write...

7 months

Zeke is 7 months today!! Since this isn't a month to go to the dr, I will just tell you some fun stuff about him. Zeke is such a happy baby, he loves to smile and laugh! His favorite game right now is peek-a-boo. And it tends to not be your typical peek-a-boo. He does enjoy pulling the blanket from his face, but Spence enjoys running around and hiding in different rooms and popping out. Zeke gets such a kick out of it! Zeke reserves his biggest smiles for when he hasn't seen us for a little while and then he sees us. Like when we go to work, take a nap, or even go to the bathroom. He loves sitting up and playing with his toys. He still loves to jump and tries to jump even when not in the jumper. He stills loves to eat and still is a fight to keep asleep. He is not sleeping through the night yet, but generally takes good naps during the day. Here are some fun pictures from this past week.

Crybaby

Zeke's Uncle Bubba came over and hung out with us. Zeke was a major show off with sitting up for him. Then things took a turn for the worse. Zeke couldn't sit up any longer and when he toppled over, he bumped Bubba's knee. You would have thought the knee was made of knives! The drama that this kid created afterwards was insane. He seriously cried more than when he has gotten shots. Bubba being the good uncle that he is, he took some pictures of the crybaby.

How distraught

Doesn't he look desperate?

Check out the drool

You can see his teeth in this one

The calm after the storm

The story behind the picture

So, I know that the delay has probably killed some of you. I do apologize for that, but I have a little bit going on right now...
Yes, we are expecting again. We thought we were further along, but after the dr visit, we found out differently. We are 6 weeks today. Which puts us due October 29. We are beyond thrilled to being having our second child. How far apart will the two kiddos be? 14 months.
To answer the questions of was this planned/was this a surprise/was this an accident/etc. We were not planning either way, we were totally giving control of our family to God. And this is how He has seen to bless our family right now. It's pretty awesome, to be quite honest. Many of you don't know but it took a little while to have Zeke. So for us to be pregnant again is pretty crazy for us.
We are totally excited and absolutely covet your prayers over our family. Thanks for sharing our joy with us.

Happy Birthday Great Grandma!
