Hope everyone had a great V-Day! We did :)
Nothing crazy; just really nice family time.
My Valentines
***UPDATE*** Elijah had his 15 month checkup and shots this week.
He's up to 24.5 lbs now. Doctor Cowan looked at his head and said it's healing wonderfully :)
Thanks for all the love and prayers for our little boy (and Adam and I as I think we were more traumatized by the incident!)
I had today off (hallelujah!) so Elijah and I got to spend extra time together.
Who wouldn't love that?
Took him to get his haircut.
Poor kid grows a mullet 4 weeks after each haircut
(only the back grows, not the front!);
went and had lunch with Adam
(Elijah was super excited to find out that Daddy and his work friends have lots of toys to play with. Possibly even more that we have at home :);
and went to the park, where Elijah fell in love.
Cute little dark haired girl named Hope.
Once he spotted her he was in awe. He was following her around the playground.
Then she picked up a football and it was over. He couldn't keep his eyes off her.
I could see the cartoon hearts just floating from his head.
In honor of Valentine's, I thought I'd share some recent things I love about my love-E
(because, you know, I NEVER gush!)
-Love how he "tickles" (especially feet).
I put tickles in quotations because really, it hurts like heck!
He scratches with those razors for nails he has.
I can't ever tell him no though,
he enjoys it too much.
-Love how much he loves basketball.
We went for a walk this weekend and the kid pointed out every single house that had a basketball net. Then got really mad because I wouldn't let him run up and touch every one of them.
He has the same love for footballs, however we don't have any neighbors with football fields in their front yard.
-Love how he actually makes kissy noises now when he blows kisses.
He used to just make a "muah" sound, but now smacks his lips together.
-Love that he's learning to say "please" and "thank you".
As of now the words he says sound nothing like their suppose to,
but he's trying.
-Love the most: Elijah's fish face.
He's really into copying sounds and faces lately.
Adam and I were making fish faces at him and this what we got back:
Is that not the CUTEST thing you've ever seen??
