By the way, it was a miracle (and kind of an accident) that this shot worked. I have tried to get a close-up of his eyes for a while now, but he is always too busy darting around the room for that holding-still nonsense.
Ever since preschool started, Elijah has been having me sit in the corner of the kitchen as he pretends to be my teacher. He stands up in front of "the class" and folds his hands across his belly (so funny!) as he leads me in songs. He even walks to the wall and pretends to turn a knob (that doesn't exist) that turns the pretend music on and off. It is one of the cutest things I have ever seen him do.
One of the songs he sings as he is "teaching" me is the Itsy Bitsy Spider. This is the first time I have ever heard him sing this song, and it is cute cute cute! "The ipsy bipsy pie-der..." :)
He has been making me laugh more than usual lately. He has started saying, "Hi purple Mommy!" (fill in the color with whatever color shirt I'm wearing). The funniest thing in the world to him right now is when I say, "EYELASH CRASH?!?" and give him a surprised expression. I know, it doesn't make sense, but maybe that's why he finds it so funny.
There are a few words that he still hugely mispronounces, but I refuse to correct him because I think they are so cute. He still calls "breakfast" "feckis" and for some reason I love that. The other day he saw me making dinner and said, "Mama have wife?" ("Wife" = "Knife") He stopped himself and said, "Not WIFE! It's KNIFE!" Darn, he's catching on.
That's about all I've got for now! Just wanted to share some funnies about my beautiful-eyed little boy.

Those eyes really are gorgeous!
It's funny, Safa used to call knife "yife". I never figured where she got that from. You're right, some of the mispronounced stuff is really cute. My favorite Bilal word is "high-jantic" (instead of gigantic)
I love him...
It's time for a video of that cute little voice!
Your picture taking skills are getting WAY too good! (you're going to have yourself a lucrative side job pretty soon if you keep it up!)
Munch on the baby necks for me!
How adorable! I love the mispronounced words too...precious!
His eyes really are gorgeous! Lucky you for getting that shot! :)
Yeah I can't wait to watch new videos of your two gorgeous little men!
Love Elijsh's big beautiful eyes!!!
OMG he is way to cute. And retend playing how much fun is that.
I would love to see some video of him soon.
I love your little stories about Elijah ... he's so darn cute!! And I don't think I would correct "feckis" either ... that's adorable!
Okay, so my blip is back on the radar:0) Trying to redeem myself in bloggerland!
What a great photo! Such a story in those eyes...
I love the mispronunciations! Vaeh's biggest one now is "packa-puss" = platypus! Love it!
Praying you're all well! Enjoy the upcoming weekend!
