Elijah at 10 months

Don't know if you can tell or not but there's a piece of a green bean sitting on his nose.

Pulled all his toys out and played under the highchair.

Watching Emily play

An Elijah Update

It seems like our baby has grown into a little boy overnight. He's changed so much this past month. He now has two teeth (on the bottom) and is finally crawling! He had his first haircut (just the back that was starting to hang down on his shoulders). He loves to squeal when he's excited (Emily's an expert at hyping him up) and when he's mad (I'm pretty good at making him mad - taking away things he shouldn't play with and dragging him away from the computer, the oven, and the toilet). And he LOVES bread (takes after his uncle Paul!). He's eating a wide variety of solids now, and he'll only eat baby food if he's the only one eating. If we're eating at the table, he has to eat from our plates - or else the squeals break out, or he just refuses to eat! He's all boy, loves balls and cars and trains (he already makes vroom, vroom sounds while he pushes his cars). He also loves his new puzzle from Santa and he loves books. I can set a basket of books in front of him and he's entertained for quite a while. Until he sees or hears Emily, then he's off to watch what she's up to. We put a gate at her door so she can play with her little toys in her room, and he'll crawl to the gate and sit there and watch her play. Anyway, that fills you in on our youngest a little bit. Wish you could all see him. He's lots of fun. Maybe the videos will give you a small peek into his life as a 10 month old.

These next two videos show what he likes to do while I'm unloading the dishwasher. For some reason he likes the challenge of sliding under the dishwasher door and crawling backwards to get back out. It's very funny to watch (in real life anyway).
