Happy Half Birthday Zeke

Today Zeke turned 6 months old. A half birthday – which is a cause for celebration!

This 6 month special day thing, I think got to his head. While Zeke is a totally love bug, the dude has brains and he is learning how to use them. His curiousness and desire to explore the world is intense and this mom is scared.

Today he sat up for the first time by himself for over a minute. He also has started rolling…. EVERYWHERE. So much rolling that he rolled over several toys and scratched his legs up pretty bad causing blood all over the place (lovely, being a mom isn’t it?).

I have a feeling we’re about to notice the big shift that happens with mobility. Oh how I wish babies could stay little forever – and why all of this milestone crap on your half birthday?

Today we laughed, captured some great photos (see below) and celebrated Zeke’s first 6 months of life.

The older kids yipped “why didn’t we get a half birthday celebration?”. Well kids, frankly you are loud and not as cute as Zeke. Don’t worry I didn’t tell them that.

6 Months Ago
6 months ago today, you graced us with your presence. We love you Zekerz!

What in the world? I say this every month on here, and I say it out loud every day – Where does time go?
