Birthday fun!

It was so fun! Thanks everyone for his presents and cards!

Lonely lonely.

Tony and Elijah are in south dakota visiting fam this week and since I have recently started back at school, i am not. Yesterday I just ran some errands and then pitifully called my sister in law Amber to see if I could play at their house. It ended up being quite productive as I babysat brooklyn and tanner while mike and amber got to go on a froofy date consisting of salads and pedi's.
Brooklyn and i had decided to color for awhile when i suggested drawing a picture for her parents. "what does your dad like?"
"ummmm, dragons!"
"ok... we'll draw a dragon for him, what about your mom?"
"ummmm.... baby dragons!"

so we drew a picture of a big dragon breathing fire and a baby dragon not breathing fire because apparently fire scares baby dragons.
Then we watched Wall-e and when mike and amber got home brooklyn started a sushi restaurant and later, inevitably, both tanner and brooklyn ended up in only their underwear running around the living room.

All in all, a good first day with no baby lijah :(
they'll be back on sunday!

Lots of new Videos!!!!!

Elijah has learned a few new things, he now points and waves on command(most of the time) He also makes his super excited face to make us laugh which we have a video of. Still not walking but climbs stairs well which is scary and just this week he learned how to get off the couch feet first instead of headfirst which has done wonders for his complexion.

This Pic is about 2 months old but its so cute.

Next we are going to build a treehouse.

Elijah Likes his new toybox, we still don't have a place for his toys though.

He might become a construction foreman, he was goodat yelling at me while I put the box together

Videos for your enjoyment!

Trouble making

Elijah is getting good at playing. He likes to slap the kitty cat and laugh and go sit next to the dog until the dog gets up and moves then he laughs and follows her to her next place of sitting. Right now we are at the library and he is crawling like a mad man and yelling to the point where both me and tony are going "SHHHhh shhhhh come back here! shhhh!"

Well videos take forever to load, so today everyone can enjoy some good old fashioned digital pictures

"you're fired."

And I cut tony's hair! Yes, me. I did it. Took the big scissors plunge in the back yard. I think it looks grood.

Internets

We have finally decided to take the time to go find a place with the interweb and sit and post a bloggula. Things have been good lately. Elijah is starting to learn things now. He has learned to point and mooch our food and he is starting to learn how to throw fits when we do not share our food with him. He refuses the cheerios we offer him and dramatically plops onto his butt and puts his head down while squinting as hard as he can while he does his fake cry. Oh well.



I am starting to teach him little baby sign language, hence the pointing. The sign for 'More' is pointing your finger into the palm of your other hand. Im sure he will catch on soon.



He is learning to dance.

And play the piano.

I would put more up now but it is super burning up in this coffee shop and i have to go grocery shopping!
