Break Free

No photos to document Zeke's jailbreak from the crib last week. He awakened us with a loud plunk and sure enough, before the sun even had time to rise, Zeke had managed to weasel out of his crib. Later, we took a trip to the park, and we enjoyed some mouth harp harmonies.




Adventures in Eating

Wood...


Perhaps a bug...


Where will my gustation adventures lead next???


The Greatest Gift of All

Before we even made it to worship our Savior and celebrate His gift to mankind, Zeke was clearly tired from wearing his new sporty outfit that Grammie made especially for him.

Merry Christmas Eve at Grammie's!!

Zeke was apparently a really good boy this year!


Uncle Daniel checking Zeke's reflexes with his new hammer


Ready for bed


We'll Just Leave That To Santa

Failed attempts to capture Zeke and Lonny in their Santa outfits yielded no adorable Christmas cards, and for those privy to sensitive information, the ingestion of impalatables by our dear child. Ew.


Momentary Lapse in Judgement

So Zeke had a little sniffle and was getting some teeth. Our super friendly burrito-builder at Barberitos felt Zeke needed a cookie, specifically Oreos. Brad agreed and somehow for just 10 seconds I apparently thought this was an okay idea. Well, the tears dried up like the Dead Sea, and this was a purely blissful moment.


Please note the vegetables on the cheek as well...there were attempts at sound nutrition here.

Live footage...


Christmas at Tupelo Abbey

Jody and Sarah hosted the Mills Christmas, and it was exquisite in true sizzlin' Sarah style...even some foie gras-ish delights! Picture time not quite as delightful...


never sure exactly where the camera is in the paparazzi style shoots.


Grands with Grands

Locomote!

Dressed as conductor, and ready to punch the gas! Not sure we'll be able to keep Zeke-wheel from behind the wheel!


Sharing Secrets

Whispering with Great Grandma


and swapping stories with black baby

Bathtime


Splishing, splashing, and laughing!

Me and My Friend Scout

Scout...oh how we love you!


milk...it's my favorite food!


Johnny Ringo Appleseed

Good old fashioned fun of pot banging at Grammie's. We certainly mustn't limit ourselves to a single instrument.


Mad About Plaid

Uncle David and Zeke hanging out doing some of their favorite things...


Grab the Glasses (for those erudite moments)


and puppy time!

Baby Mozart

He's got ear ;)


Beach Bumming

Zeke's inaugural trip to the beach at Tybee included sand in the toes and the diaper and chilly water! Perhaps he'll be more impressed in the summer...instead of November.


Of course, best bud Lono tagged along...his first beach appearance too!


Testing the waters. And not so much.
