Elijah's post-croup cough got a little bit worse as the weekend went on. It is still NOTHING compared to what his little body endured after each episode last year, so we have no complaints.
Here is our crazy boy (this was our name for him all weekend) reading books on the LoveSac.
This photo was taken pre-hair cut, which is worth mentioning because it was the first hair cut he cooperated for. No crying or freaking out or thrashing about. Our boy is growing up!
We decided to go to a tree farm on Friday and cut down our own Christmas tree. I have to say that it was a little more difficult than I thought it would be only because it was hard to lug our non-walking little boy around an enormous field of trees, sans stroller. It was fun, though. We will definitely do it again next year. And I think we found the perfect tree!
Elijah's level of spunk and craziness was turned up a few notches this weekend. Sometimes I wish he could walk just so he could run off some of his energy. Something else that got turned up was his desire to test his boundaries and Mommy and Daddy's patience and also his ability to scream, kick and hit. Our house has most definitely been filled with plenty of spunk.
He's still the sweetest little boy, though, kissing everyone and everything, including Baby Snowman..
..and Mama Snow(wo)man..
A new favorite thing for him to do is to shut himself in a closet or in the bathroom and say, "Night night, Mama (or Daddy)!" as he fake snores and then yells, "WAKE UP!!" Repeat about 1,497 times.
We put our Christmas, sorry, KICKUS, decorations up this weekend and Elijah loves them. Turning on the "Kickus wights" is the first thing he has us do every morning.
Our home is pretty festive and cozy right now. I love this time of year and I love my spunky little family.

His face...his yummy little face! Glad you have everything you need to treat that cough...that puts you at ease.
I agree...LOVING the tree and the lights. As I sat this weekend looking at mine...I was wishing the season lasted longer. If only for the coziness of it!
Glad you got to enjoy your boys this weekend. :0)
What a perfect word to describe a house all decorated for Christmas...cozy! I think we should be allowed to leave the cozy decorations up while it's still cold outside...however long that is!
Oh, and how do you have presents under your tree already???
Lots of love,
Cindy

We sure did miss you this weekend! It would have made the weekend more fun for you to be here!
I hope that the spunky boy continues to be spunky! Gracie is certainly giving us a run for our money!!
I love the new haircut. All of the photos of Elijah are so cute. Are you going to take him to go see Santa this year I would love to see that photo.
Hope you have a good week and little man starts to feeling better soon.
