Thursday - July 29
It was Mary's birthday so you took her a cake and a present. She said you were a fussy pants though - I think your mouth was sore so you were fussy! We had dinner then we went for a walk. We stopped at Great Gramma Faiman's house because it was her birthday too. We went to the park and played for a little bit. You took some good pictures :)
Your first slide ride!
Master of the slide!

After Great Gramma's, we hung out and ran errands tonight. We were on a mission to find you a walker like you have at Mary's. We did get you a Halloween costume but I am not sure if that will be the official Halloween costume. We went to Target and you got a new puppy toy. It says your name and sings to you. You love it!!
Your new toy. You walk around it and it is helping you to learn how to take steps.

You hung out with Gramma Debbie all day while daddy and I went tubing. You were so tired when we picked you up. We missed Grampa's pig roast and I think he was bummed that he didn't have a chance to show you off. We will have to take you up there for a football game so you can see all of his friends.
Sunday - August 1
Daddy took care of you most of the day today. Mommy's arms were hurting all day. I don't know why. We went over to Gramma Ruth's for Tyler's birthday party. Your cousin is now 4!!! You are starting to get so big and I am not withholding your super cute clothes any more! I put you in your alligator bibs and matching shirt. TOO CUTE!! You were so fussy at night. You were up until 11:00 and it was the painful cries - not your tired cries. I wish we could put you to bed and have you wake up with a mouth full of teeth!! I feel so badly for you when you are in pain. Today was also the day your cousin Brandi turned 30. Happy Birthday to Brandi!

Monday - August 2
Daddy was off work today because we needed a sitter for you today. You guys hung out at the courthouse because your daddy is a slumlord and he needed to evict his tenant. (haha! Daddy calls himself a slumlord - not your mommy calling him that) He said you were super good in court. You were about to fuss and the bailiff looked at you and you stopped. Already teaching you to stay out of trouble! In the afternoon, you hung out at the house with daddy and then we went out to dinner. You tried lots of new food tonight - shredded cheese from my salad, crouton from my salad, tiny little pieces of bread, a tomato, garlic mashed potatoes. You were all over everything :)

I can't think of much else to tell you buddy. You are still growing like a weed, making lots of new noises and trying lots of new foods. I think you are eating less. Definitely way less bottles and eating fewer times per day. You are more playful and flirty. You love the puppies and kitties. You can't even eat dinner if they are moving around because you have to watch them. You love people and don't care who holds you most of the time. Daddy said that you were even reaching out for people to hold you when he took you to meet people at the bank. I think you are recognizing your name - you smile more when the bear says "Elijah". Your dad was holding you today over his shoulder and you were grinning at me. I thought "Man, he could be a Gerber baby. He is so darn cute." :)
A leftover photo from CocoKey - you riding out on daddy's shoulders!
