More friends for Zeke...

People continue to make Zeke feel like a star wherever he goes. He gets his cheeks pinched more than you could possibly imagine. Last night, we made friends with our bus driver on the way home. This was, of course, before the bus left, not while it was driving. It was pretty cute, though.

Zeke's new friends...

We've just been in the country about 12 hours and Zeke has already charmed several people, most of whom have been grown men. While coming home from the airport, traffic moved a little slowly and a car pulled up next to our van with three grown men across the front seat. All three of the men began to smile and wave at Zeke, who did the same back to them. When we went out at 2 in the morning to get something to eat (see the Family Blog), a man in the restaurant squatted beside Zeke's stroller, pulling out his camera phone to take a picture. Anyway, we can't speak a word of the language yet, but Zeke is already helping us meet new people. He seems to be having fun, as well.

Zeke's first Birthday Party!

We celebrated Zeke's first birthday today. He had lots of friends and family come. We ate hot dogs and hamburgers and his mother made a really cool dinosaur cake. Zeke had a lot of fun and is already looking forward to his second birthday. If you want to see more pictures from the party, click here.

Zeke's walking for real!!!

Zeke's finally walking! He just decided to take off the day before yesterday. Anyway, without further ado, here he is!
