I recently had a panic attack in Target. While looking for some socks
and clothes for Elijah, I couldn't help but notice that every super
cute item was too small. Oddly enough there was nothing in his size in
the baby section. All the 12/18 month clothes were in the toddler
section. My heart was racing as I passed by the tiny socks in search for
bigger kid sizes. "Hold it together" I thought.
My little boy will only be a baby for one more month. He's grown so much! He's been walking since about 10 months and now he's cruising, climbing, diving, and everything in between.
He's finally starting to cuddle again. I guess life has slowed down a little for him now he can take a few seconds (literally) to cuddle. Below is Boo, Elijah's Bear or Baby. He loves 'B' words, and his lovey is everything to him. I may have said this before, but don't smell or touch the bear. As you can see he's sucked on ALL the time. He'll leave slime on you and make you smell weird.
Elijah has also taken 'vroom' to a whole new level. We believe he learned the sound from Tyler's car (which Elijah loves by the way). He'll push anything around and say 'vroom'. Luckily Uncle Dakota loaned him a lot of Chevron cars to play with. It's pretty much his favorite thing to do...ALL DAY LONG!
He's eats all big boy food now, and most of the time all by himself. As you can tell, it's more fun for him, and more clean up for us.
My cute boy ready for bed. Below is 'Bee'. His backup bear. I think the key to a good lovey for Elijah is something to suck on. For Bee, it's his antennas. For his Christmas monkey, it's his hat. For his Puppy, it's his nose.

Using Dad as a stool. Now he can finally crawl on the table.
Being parents is so much fun. Now we have a reason to hang out around the mall and play in playgrounds. I love how much Tyler loves it.
