August 29 and 30th

Hi Elijah!
Oh my goodness - you were so darn funny on Sunday. You were out of control. You woke up super happy, you were laughing, making noises like we had never heard and just weird :) We think you were super happy to be home - in your bed, with your animals and your toys. It was a day unlike any other that we have had with you. You are adding a "Ga" sound to your vocabulary and you are making this new noise where it sounds like you are clearing your throat. It is kind of funny.

So, what did we do today besides laugh at you? Well, mommy went to Baby Jake's baptism. He did a great job! He didn't fuss or cry. He was so cute in his gown. Then, we went down to Auntie Becky's for a birthday party. You got to be loved up by Auntie Betty & Great Gramma Dorothy again today! Afterwards, we just relaxed at home.

August 30th
It was a big morning this morning. You woke up at 5:00 and ate a bottle then went back to sleep. When daddy picked you up to take you to Mary's, you WAVED at me! I couldn't believe it. I thought maybe it was an accident but you did it two different times. Daddy said you were so happy to be at Mary's. You went right to her and you were reaching for all of the kiddos. When I picked you up, she said you were happy to be back and you wouldn't let go of her. For dinner, we smacked some waffle pieces on a plate and you gobbled them up. We followed them up with applesauce and a bottle. I am not sure if that is balanced or not but you enjoyed it.

I finally got your photos together! Are you ready for a big long post of pictures?

You were working Great Gramma Dorothy - you were laying your head on her shoulder and cooing!




You getting some love from Auntie Betty! Everyone keeps telling us that she doesn't like babies all that much. But, every time you are around her, she loves holding you, talking to you and playing with you. At Alec's birthday party, she was even feeding you ice cream from her plate!
