Thanks, Heather, for taking this cute pic of Elijah and me last weekend
So, last night I was sitting in the living room with Elijah before we put him to bed. He was up on his hands and knees, rocking back and forth, and....he just decided to start crawling! He only took a couple steps, but MY BABY CRAWLED! Of course, I cried a little. I'm so happy. There were days when I thought this would never happen. I'm such a proud mommy.
Hooray Elijah! Way to make your mommy proud! It sure is a great feeling when these little guys finally 'get it' after months of struggle. I'm sure you were ecstatic. Congrats Elijah!
ReplyDeleteToday, crawling; tomorrow... Oh, no - here he comes!! Yaaay Elijah! What a big guy you are!
ReplyDeleteOkay, Mom & Dad - now you have to really child proof the house! It only gets better from here!
Give him big smooches for us!
Yay Elijah!!!!!!! So excited for you!
ReplyDeleteOMG! I can't believe you didn't share last night! What a great milestone. . .get it on video and share! Yahoo, yippeee! Being a proud mamma is one of the best feelings in the world.

Yay for Elijah!! He's gonna be on a mission now to get everywhere as fast as he can!! I'm so proud of him!! BTW...did anyone officially win the bet??
ReplyDeleteLove ya!
Cindy
You know you need to keep that video camera handy now and share the big move with all of us!
ReplyDeleteYou'll have so much fun...Seth loved playing the block game...we could stack blocks on one end of the room and he would crawl to get knock them down...then the other one would stack them on the other end and he would crawl back...we played for hours!
I'm so excited for all of you...but it won't be long you'll wish you never had a mobile baby...just kidding!
I am so excited for you that he is starting to crawl. WOW. Now comes all of the child proofing. GO ELIJAH!!!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!! Be ready for him to be all over! The pics you have posted are absolutely adorable! Sorry to hear about your visit to the hospital...so scary sometimes. Do you think maybe he has allergies? Especially since you mentioned him having puffy eyes at one point?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kathy: you look beautiful! Its a great pic of the 2 of you.
Take care!
And so it begins!!! Once they start, they never stop! Hooray Elijah! Now we need some video footage!
ReplyDeleteYay! What an awesome moment. Did anyone win the bet? I don't even remember what I guessed for the long awaited crawl date. I love the photo of the both of you, it's precious!
ReplyDeleteFirst of ALL that is the most adorable picture on the planet.
ReplyDeleteAND second of ALL:
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYEEEE!!
That rules.
