All I want for April is my two front teeth

Elijah has cut his front teeth! It was a painful process for all of us, but finally they are here! And he lets us know by biting us a few times a day.

Elijah loves kitty cats. And cameras.

Over Easter weekend, we went to Denver! Tony's aunt Shelley invited us to play so we jumped at the chance to get out for awhile. Aside from family Tony has some friends that live there too so we graced them with Elijahs presence. Here is Jess! She knit me this awesome flower headband thing and elijah loved playing with her and Jared at their neato apartment.


Here is my favorite picture from the trip. Tony and his bestie Jake and elijah. They are all wearing kind of matching hats and it is overall a cute picture.



Elijah has an affinity for motorcycles we have found out.



In Denver, we went to the Aquarium! Elijahs first trip. He was ho-hum about the sharks.


And he wasnt sure about hte fish-people.



But he was especially weary about the orangutan. Monkey, at the aquarium? He was onto that monkey.



We had an awesome time. Coming back from denver we took the scenic route 70 and stopped off at Arches!





And we saw mountain goats! I didnt expect their foreheads to be so wrinkly.

Standing on his own two feet

So Tony is getting elijah ready for bed earlier this evening

That video wasnt from tonight, but from a different night. Its an example of a normal bedtime with lijah. Well tonight was a little different.

Elijah was being cute so tony came and grabbed the camera and then THIS happened...

He stood up! on his own (kind of). By holding on to the side of the crib he pulled himself up! Tony had to grab him so he wouldnt fall out of the crib.

Please excuse my squeals in this next video. Just focus on baby.

I cant believe we got it on tape!

Also we have a dog now! Tony friend from work needed someone to watch the dog for awhile so we agreed and we can keep her potentially. She is a good puppy and loves to fetch and sit with elijah.
