Elijah is getting so grown up - doesn't he just look old? He is getting into everything now, and I'm constantly chasing him. He loves electrical cords, the computer, and the fireplace, and he moves pretty quickly now, so we really have to stay with him.He's also developed a fascination with closing doors. Of course, he's always inside the door, so I have to come and rescue him once he's trapped himself. He hasn't quite figured out that he needs to get out of the way so that I can open the door for him - it's a tricky thing that requires a lot of careful shoving through a door that can only open a few inches.
E is also trying to label everything in his world - this week he's spent a lot of time pointing to things and looking quizzical (like, "What's that called, Mom?").
He is getting really good at pulling up and getting back down - it's no big deal now, and he's learning to back off things like the couch and stairs with his feet first rather than trying to go head first (hooray!).
Elijah wants to eat whatever we're eating, and prefers to share with me rather than have his own food. Today he ate an entire peanut butter and jelly sandwich by himself!
Playing with a box - the best toy ever!
Hanging out under the table before swimming lessons
Well I should have just sent an empty box for his birthday!
ReplyDeleteI know that this is what things will be like in our house soon.
