Here Is Some Ezra, For No Particular Reason

May 04, 2011

ALL RIGHT. WHICH ONE OF YOU ASSHOLES STOLE MY BABY?

EZRA-baseball-game-0502111

AND REPLACED HIM WITH THIS...

EZRA-baseball-game-0502112

THIS...

EZRA-baseball-game-0502113

KID.

EZRA-baseball-game-0502114

THIS CHILD.

THIS SUPER-GROWN-UP-LOOKING LITTLE-BOY CHILD.

EZRA-baseball-game-0502115

(Who still, admittedly, sleeps with his Winkie blanket and sucks his thumb and blows raspberries on my pregnant belly and calls Cheerios "chowder" and says "I SCARED!" whenever Noah watches Harry Potter and "OW MY BUTT" whenever I pinch it but who also unloads the silverware from the dishwasher and counts to 10 and knows his shapes and is applying to preschools this week because it just now occurred to me that wow, he's not my baby anymore, he's my very funny, very amazing, very wonderful, very super-grown-up-looking little boy.)

Oh my god, he does look like a grown up boy-child. What is wrong with the world.

Posted by: kristen | May 04, 2011 at 02:10 PM

No reason needed for some Ezra, in my opinion. ANY reason is a very good one.

Such a grown up looking little guy!

Ok I read that first line and thought OH NO WHAT HAPPENED TO AMY???? Woman, DO NOT do that again! **hugs** Noah is growing so fast! My son turns 11 in July and I keep looking at him and thinking... Who? How? Why? SERIOUSLY?? Already???

Oy!

Posted by: NotAMeanGirl | May 04, 2011 at 02:11 PM

Oh so adorable, but so grown up. When the baby comes he'll look even more so.

They both look so much like you.

Posted by: Mrs. Commoner | May 04, 2011 at 02:12 PM

By Noah I totally mean Ezra... I blame the meds... it's ALWAYS the meds... **shifty eyes**

Posted by: NotAMeanGirl | May 04, 2011 at 02:15 PM

I have the same reaction whenever I look at Lex.

The nerve of these babies! Growing up into people!

Posted by: Nicole | May 04, 2011 at 02:16 PM

Well, good thing you're getting a newer model, since this other one is obviously defective in not remaining your preshus baby. (What a handsome little man!)

Posted by: Roberta | May 04, 2011 at 02:20 PM

WHOA. I remember when that happened with Noah, too. It's so crazy how they turn the corner from baby to kid in an instant! He's as darling as ever, though. And yay for a new baby!

Posted by: PinkieBling | May 04, 2011 at 02:20 PM

"Chowder" is so awesome.

Posted by: Olivia | May 04, 2011 at 02:22 PM

I have two boys and expecting our third (sex unknown) and I remember so distinctly how all of a sudden how BIG our older boy looked when he came to visit us in the hospital when his little brother was born. In the half day we were separated, he grew up 10 inches, gained 20 lbs, and all of a sudden looked like a BIG KID instead of a my sweet little baby.

I assume it's going to happen all over again when this little one is born. Sigh. So fast.

Posted by: Zinna | May 04, 2011 at 02:22 PM

WOW, he looks so grown up!!! My baby informed me today that a month from today he will turn 9. It is not fair they grow up too fast.

Posted by: Elonda | May 04, 2011 at 02:23 PM

Oh my god, he's starting to look exactly like Noah.

Posted by: The Tutugirl | May 04, 2011 at 02:24 PM

He's precious! Definitely heading into little boy territory, no doubt about it!

Posted by: Parsing Nonsense | May 04, 2011 at 02:24 PM

We just got son Sebastian's shaggy, always in his eyes, so long he has to hold it back to eat his cereal hair cut a few weeks ago. As soon as we did, not only did my almost 3 year old little guy suddenly look like a big boy, I also started noticing just how grown up he was getting. I still kind of tear up thinking about it.

Posted by: Jaime | May 04, 2011 at 02:27 PM

It happens like that, one day they are a baby and the next they are a child. Sad but exciting. He and Noah will probably look like adults after the next baby arrives.

This is one of the reasons my (just turned) two year old son has never had a haircut. Between being on the skinny side and off the charts for height he already looks too much like a "big boy." The addition of an actual haircut might just do me in.

Posted by: Kate | May 04, 2011 at 02:30 PM

Eek. Had that same thought with mine last night. When do they become real-live humans?

Still, adorable. So adorable. Thanks for the midday smile. And also: jealous of that nice green grass. Spring is taking forever in Colorado!

Posted by: Kathleen | May 04, 2011 at 02:32 PM

No kidding, he has grown up SO much!

Are you able to see how much he resembles Noah? I didn't see it much when he was a baby but hot damn, I sure do see it in him now.

Posted by: Leeann | May 04, 2011 at 02:35 PM

Love me some Mighty Ez! He looks so much like Noah in these pics. I can't believe he is so grown up!

Posted by: Martha H. | May 04, 2011 at 02:36 PM

You know I can't handle this shit. Stop it. Please. Make them stop with the growing.

Posted by: Heather B. | May 04, 2011 at 02:40 PM

Aww! He stills looks like a baby to me.

Posted by: MariaV | May 04, 2011 at 02:50 PM

He looks a lot like Noah! Especially in the picture where he's holding the tree. What an adorable brood you have!

Posted by: Liz | May 04, 2011 at 02:53 PM

Ah, today must be love the boy day: http://whatnowandwhy.blogspot.com/2011/05/holding-hands.html.

Usually, I just lurk here, follow your family's growth, laugh and cry w/you (albeit virtually and weirdly semi-stalkerish since I do actually talk to the computer like you can hear me) and generally all around enjoy you. Today, though, in my own feelings of boy love, I decided to chime in.

Ezra's dishwasher emptying skills will be useful when the "get me that" starts after the new boy comes.

Posted by: Arnebya | May 04, 2011 at 02:55 PM

He looks so much like you, Amy! Don't worry, more baby forthcoming :)

Posted by: PigPennies | May 04, 2011 at 03:03 PM

it's when the baby cheeks start to go that I can't take it. When my son loses those soft round cheeks I am going into mourning.

Posted by: Mermil | May 04, 2011 at 03:05 PM

heh. I just realized I typed soft round cheeks.

Posted by: Mermil | May 04, 2011 at 03:05 PM

He is just so cute and cuddly! Goodness, I miss that age.

Posted by: Barefoot Liz | May 04, 2011 at 03:49 PM

Holy cow. He's ginormous. See, this is why I have not cut my boy's sheepdoggish hair in 2 months. Because THAT is going to happen to him. Gah.

Posted by: Missie | May 04, 2011 at 06:57 PM

OMG, he has gotten so ridiculously big. So cute!

Posted by: Kristin | May 04, 2011 at 09:30 PM

Isn't it amazing how quickly they transform from baby to boy? So sad and so wonderful.

Posted by: The Mommy Therapy | May 04, 2011 at 10:25 PM

I swear, every time you post a picture of just one of your boys I have to stare reaaaaaally hard to figure out which one it is. With Ezra's round baby face all grown up now, he and Noah look so alike! And soooooooo handsome!

Posted by: Katie Serendipity | May 05, 2011 at 01:39 AM

Great posting.I think very robust about it and want to read more. If it’s OK, as you gain more intensive wisdom, would you thoughts adding more articles similar to this one with additional info.

Posted by: drupal website developers | May 05, 2011 at 06:43 AM

what a precious little guy.

Posted by: lora | May 05, 2011 at 09:36 AM

Ha "chowder". Ezra you're the best! :)

...please stop growing up.

Posted by: Elizabeth | May 05, 2011 at 09:37 AM

Amazing how fast they grow, isn't it? I guess my parents knew what they were talking about when they said time goes faster when you're older. =) Someone stole my baby girl & gave her a drivers permit, HOW is THAT possible? Tears... Have the seen the subaru (I think?) commercial where the dad is talking to his toddler (who is in the drivers seat) about safe driving & then you find out it's actually his teen? Yep, reality check. Dang it, it's going too fast!

Posted by: Rachel | May 05, 2011 at 09:57 AM

totally off topic and possibly stalkery but I had a dream last night that you had your baby and it was a girl.

Posted by: Susan | May 05, 2011 at 02:40 PM

He's like a little man now! An adorable one, but man, I miss that little baby face too! :)

Posted by: Shelbey | May 05, 2011 at 05:24 PM

Jeez louise, it seems like just a month ago he was still breastfeeding and wouldn't let you put him down. Where the hell does the time go?

Posted by: Suzy Q | May 05, 2011 at 06:13 PM

Ditto what Suzy Q said!

I can't wait to see what Baby 3 is going to look like, whether you're going to get another Noah/Ezra or maybe this time, a dark haired baby who looks like Jason!

Posted by: Elizabeth@Table4five | May 05, 2011 at 09:32 PM

Mine is growing up so fast as well. It feels like just a few months ago little Ez was yelling random words from his crib to let you know he was quite ready to be retrieved, and mine was rolling over for the first time. Now every time I take his picture if feels like he's running away from me. Too fast!

*sobs* Sunrise, sunset...

Posted by: Candace | May 05, 2011 at 10:46 PM

PreK snuck up on me too!! Next year. For my youngest. No more babies in this house.

Posted by: Christine | May 06, 2011 at 07:53 AM

Christ on a cracker!!..those children look JUST like you..The idea of family resemblance is SO fascinating to me!

Posted by: linka72 | May 07, 2011 at 03:03 PM

Unacceptable to be growing up so fast!

He does look so much like you, though. Adorable!

Posted by: Carrie Jo | May 07, 2011 at 05:24 PM

That post was just a trick, y'all. Those are some pics of Noah from last year!

Right?

right?
