You can tell we are lucky that you are just shy of a year old because Mommy is having a hard time keeping up with your blog. I told myself that I would cut back when you were a year old. Only a few more weeks :)
Tuesday - it was a rough day for me buddy. I had election duty & I was gone from 7 am until 9:15 pm so I barely got to see you. After you visited Grampa, Daddy brought you up to see me for a minute but I missed you! You had a guys night - you and Daddy went to KFC for dinner together then hung out.
Wednesday - Grampa picked you up again today and you slept the whole time. Darn flu shot on Monday made you sick. You came home from Grampa's, slept for an hour or so then you were fine. We played and then it was bed time again. You woke up at 5:00 am and slept with me the rest of the morning. Poor daddy went to get you in the morning and you were missing from your crib.
Thursday - You were pretty much back to yourself after the shots. Thank goodness! We don't like sick Elijah! It was a sentimental day for me today. When I picked you up, you guys were in the house and you were on the floor playing trucks with the boys. It was the first time I picked you up and you were interacting on the floor with the big boys. Where did my baby go? We went out to dinner and you were a terror. You were screaming, whining, loud, wouldn't eat, throwing your plate.... yep, we were that family. At that minute, I really missed the little baby who slept in his car seat while we ate. But, then you smile or laugh and I am glad you are a big boy now! Can't win :)
Friday - Big news today buddy! Mary said you crawled in her basement. Since she has carpet down there, you were able to get traction and crawl! Once you were upstairs on the wood, you slip and slide and go back to your army crawl. I don't expect to see you crawl at our house because we have all wood. But, at least we know you can do it. We didn't get to see Great Gramma today because she wasn't feeling good and didn't want to give you cooties. You were way out of whack on your sleep - no morning nap, no evening nap, and then you took an hour nap at your regular bed time. It was a rough night sleeping. We threw you in bed with us - you punched me in the eyeball in the middle of the night, you head butted my cheekbone (to where I thought I would get a bruise) and you punched daddy in the eye. Yes, we definitely prefer you to sleep in your own bed. Especially when you go to sleep at midnight and wake up at 5:00 am. I think it is your darn teeth because you are crying beyond whining - you seem like you are in pain. I hope those darn things pop through soon.
Big weekend this weekend buddy! Tomorrow, you have a date with Auntie Becky & Uncle Steve. You are going to go shopping at all of the pet stores. Daddy is doing his flying lesson from his birthday. Sunday, we are going to see Auntie Sheila and Uncle Jeff to play cards before Uncle Jeff leaves town. Next week is also a big week. Daddy is having surgery on Thursday. He is going to be in a lot of pain afterwards so it will just be you & me for awhile. I hope you will be extra good for me!
