I just want to kiss that face! |
Some of Elijah's favorite things right now (in no particular order) are:
1-Mom
2-Mom holding him
3-Waving
4-Mom nursing him
5-Bathtime
6-Playing games with Mom
7-Crawling everywhere
8-Sleeping with Mom
9-Standing up
10-Mom rocking him
11-Playing the piano
12-Mom carrying him in the mei tei (back or front-he's cool with it)
13-Clapping
14-Shopping with Mom
15-Bananas
16-Watching his brothers and laughing like crazy at their antics
17-Dancing (Soooo cute to see him bend his legs up and down and wiggle with the music!)
A funny little story: Last night a little while after I had put Elijah to bed, I was upstairs and started hearing him crying. I knew Chris was downstairs and figured he would take care of it, but the crying went on and on and got louder so I finally went downstairs to investigate. Sure enough, Chris was in the room with him trying to calm him down.
I stood at the door (semi-open) and listened to Chris talk to him when he suddenly said, "you little stinker!" and came out. He looked at me standing there and said, "He keeps crying at the door. He started crying louder when I came in and then just keeps craning his head around and crying at the door."
As soon as I walked in, Elijah stopped crying, gave me a big grin and acted all excited. All I did was sit down in the rocking chair and hum a little tune and he settled himself right back down and was asleep again in about 5 minutes. Little stinker!
Here's a video of Elijah's bath tonight. He get's so excited when I turn the bath water on and then starts splashing like crazy the minute he goes in. And yes, he does fall toward the end (oops-my bad for holding the camera!) but notice it doesn't phase him a bit. Crazy kid!
