Toothy

Ezra got his 3rd and 4th teeth over Spring Break. That's 3 on the bottom and one on the top for those of you keeping track! And, his 2nd top tooth is coming in any day now; you can see it. For weeks now he's been grabbing our fingers so that he can walk around while holding one hand and he's been army crawling too. Since he's already walking a little bit and is almost always standing up, we'd all sort of decided that he would never crawl in a traditional sense. Saturday he proved us wrong. He woke up from nap and was playing on the floor while I blow dried Eliza's hair. My mouth dropped open when I glanced over at him and he's crawling on all fours with no problem. It was like something clicked in his brain while he was sleeping. So of course we all yelled, "Ezra, you're crawling!" and then he stopped and gave us a big smile like, "Of course I am, guys!" I was pretty happy to see it, not only because he looks so cute but also because he can do it by himself! Our backs are sore from holding his hand while he walks around all the time! His other favorite activity lately is to grab a hand so that he can walk to the guest bathroom and stair at the masks on our wall. We've had the masks forever and got them from South America. We jokingly call them "the gods of dentistry" because they're so toothy. They're a weird mixture of creepy and goofy. But, Ezra loves them. All day long he makes the trek to see them and do his little low pitched chuckle. Heh heh.
