Fun stuff

I'll put up a light, happy post today since I feel a heavy one brewing.

Some jokesters put this on our refrigerator a few weekends ago. :)



And look! Elijah was nice enough to sign his daycare form for me. M-O-M (a little out of order). :)



More Elijah funnies:

He likes to hunch over and walk like he's an old man with an aching back. He will let out a fake groan and say, "Wook, Mom. OHhhhhhh..Uhhghghhgggg..ooooo.." He has also started side-stepping through the house.

On his birthday, every time anyone said, "Happy birthday, Elijah!" he would say, "Hank you! Happy birthday to YOU, Mom!" :)

I learned a few mornings ago that the shower in our bathroom doubles as a restaurant. I heard Elijah in there talking to an imaginary server, saying, "Oh yes! Hank you! I'll have some more milk, pwease."

Since his cath, he has asked numerous times, "Where Doctor Gwemmels at?" "Hmmm, I suppose he's probably at the hospital!" "Go back hossa-pee-doh soon? Doctor Gwemmels fix Elijah's heart?" :(

And some Sammy facts:

He can't crawl yet, but he is ready to take off. He does NOT sit still like Elijah did for so long. When we set him on the ground, he immediately throws his body forward and tries soooo hard to get somewhere. Once he starts crawling, oh dear...

He loooooves playing peek-a-boo.

He also looooooves to scream when we are 1 minute past a feeding time. His screams most certainly pierce the ears of people living five houses down from ours.

I don't know how we got so lucky, but Sammy is a great sleeper just like his brother. Thank you, God.

Sam loves Elijah more than anyone or anything in the world. I like to position Sammy so he's RIGHT next to Elijah, almost on top of him. Sam gets so happy, patting Elijah's head and drooling all over him. If only Elijah thought it was cute, too. Instead, he says, "NO TOUCHING, SAMMY. NO SWOBBERING, SAMMY."

He makes this cute little sound of pleasure every time a bite of food enters his mouth. Ahhmmmm.....mmmm.mmmm.. The kid loves food.

His left thumb soothes him to sleep at night.

He slid out of his high chair (through the bottom) this morning and landed on his butt. He did not make one peep. He just sat on the ground and stared up at Dan.
