Walking!

Elijah has been mobile for awhile now. He hasn't been officially walking but he has been walking along things, taking a few steps here and there, and walking with us. Tonight, much to our surprise, he walked all the way across the room! I just happened to catch in on video! Enjoy and try to ignore the annoying proud parents! :-)

Isn't it hilarious that he holds his arms straight up in the air? We pretty much walked laps around the house all weekend with him holding onto my fingers so I'm guessing that may have something to do with his "Frankstein" walk as Janet called it. :-)

Good Sheperd Day School

Elijah started daycare or day school as it is called at Good Sheperd on January 20th.  He is in the young toddler room with Miss Vanessa and now 3 other boys and 1 girl (Ward, Campbell, Harrison, and Avery)who will all be turning 2 in April or May.  I feel like he has transitioned well.  I think the interaction with other kids is wonderful for him and he has gotten to do lots of fun stuff in the month that he has been there. 

This is actually a day at home with mom ... we were out of school for 3 days due to that snow!  (Which by the way, we got another 3 inches last night but it is almost already gone and the roads are fine!  I've really enjoyed the snow here this winter!)
This is the picture collage I made for Elijah's room at Good Sheperd...it was fun to make!  I haven't done anything like this in a long time!
Elijah's first work of art! 
 
And his most recent...
Love it!
This was taken last night.  What a doll, right? 
I think he had lots of sugar at his Valentine's party because he was really goofy last night! :-)

Elijah will have a little sister come July!  Can you believe it?!  We are so excited!  We are 18 and 1/2 weeks and all looked great...so thankful for a healthy baby and mommy! 

Enjoy your first look ...



She's adorable, isn't she? :-)
