Happy Birthday Elijah!




Today our little boy turned 2! To celebrate I want to tell everyone all about our sweet little boy. He is the sweetest, most docile little boy. He plays hard, sleeps hard, and gets so dirty all the time. It is a running joke on how long he can wear a shirt without getting it dirty. Everyone says that its just boys, but I really think its just Eli. He is so "boy", Michael and I are fascinated in how boy and manly he is. Michael jokes that he is more manly than him. He is automatically driven to cars, trains, tucks, lawnmowers, and all "ball" sports. If you flip through the channels and happen upon a game, any game, then Eli will scream and throw a fit until he gets to watch an appropriate amount. He loves to eat! Eli's favorites are cookies (he's my little cookie monster, while Michael is my big one), but he also loves fruit. Eli has grown VERY attached to his blanket and insists on having it with him almost all the time in the house. However, he has very strict rules that all of us must abide by. For example, we are only allowed to touch the blanket when holding him, Lydia is almost never allowed to touch the blanket, and as soon as Eli sees the blanket, his thumb goes into his mouth. I could go on for hours gushing over our sweet boy. Happy Birthday Eli, we love you dearly.
