Life has been a little crazy the past 2 weeks. First we had visitors. Mandy and the kids stopped at our place for a couple of days on the way out to California. Ezra loved having more kids to play with. When we got the camera out Ethan was in the shower so he didn't end up in the shot.
After their visit we packed our bags and headed to New Mexico for a week long visit with Shawn's family. Ezra did really well on the drive there and warmed up really quickly to Grandma, Grandpa and especially Aunt Lori. On the first full day we were there he got his first birthday present from Grandma and Grandpa. A John Deere riding push toy.
He thought riding it was awesome.
Grandma showing him the animals that came with it.On Monday we took Ezra to the zoo for his first time ever. He loved seeing all of the animals but he definitely had his favorites.
Trying to pull closer to see the polar bears better.
Watching the seals and sea lions swimming. These were his absolute favorite.
Ezra liked swinging at Grandma & Grandpa's house as well. He was pretty happy again once his 3rd tooth finally broke through all of the way.
Shawn's grandparents came over on Friday and we were able to get another 5 generation picture.
Susan took his hand and put it into his mouth, and he caught on really quickly. He managed to get carrot cake just about everywhere. The funny thing was that he only ate with his right hand for the most part, so his left hand was pretty clean.
He had some more carrot cake on Friday night so that his great-grandparents could see him with cake. He was a bit cleaner that time.
The third cake was tonight, and it was chocolate. Shari & Ammon came over for dinner and for cake tonight, since it worked out better for them, and Ezra is going to get shots tomorrow afternoon.
He had no hesitation with cake this time.

Ezra decided to be a bit silly when we took some family pictures.
Ezra really liked the rocking chair. It isn't every day that he gets rocked to sleep.
He's already had cake 3 times, and his birthday isn't until tomorrow. The first was on Thursday night. Lori was going to be gone on Friday night, so we gave him his first cake on Thursday night. It was a carrot cake. At first he wasn't sure what to do with it and just played with the frosting.
