Two and a half



Hard to believe (as it always is)

That our beautiful blue-eyed boy,

Is halfway through year two on Earth

Such a miracle. Such a joy.


He's our little bull in a China shop. He's very top heavy and just a tank of a little boy.


Elijah LOVES food. He loves to eat and loves to eat a lot. At lunch at the BX before they flew out, he had a corndog. Then he ate Isaac's PB&J that he Isaac didn't want. And then he begged for a granola bar. Sweets are okay for him, but he prefers the "beef."


He loves to give us "100 kisses" where he kisses each cheek, our nose, and lips -- something he invented.


Has decided that he wants to sit on the toilet backwards when he has to go -- yes, he faces the flusher of the toilet. Quite cute.


Loves watching TV -- I watch a movie Mom?" His current favorites are Mickey, Diego, and Chuggington.


Is constantly leaving us in stitches from the things he says and the way he says it. For example, the other day I asked him to come over to me so I could put his shoes on but he had to go potty. He put up one finger and looked at it semi-cross-eyed and said, "I be back in oneee minute Mom." Just so cute.


Loves to tell you, "You're my best friend" out-of-the-blue.


Loves his big brother. Is a bit lost when Isaac isn't up and awake to play with or when he's at the park and can't find his "I-Z."

Precious! Can't believe how big your boys are getting. It's amazing to me how much our lives have changed in the last 5 years. Amazing.

Our #2 is a bull in a china shop too and loves to eat. He's currently 2 lbs heavier than his almost 4 year old brother. And KNOWS it. :-/ Sensitive older brother is non-too-happy about it.
