Elijah got a haircut this last weekend. It took all three of us a few days to get used to his new look. Elijah would not touch his hair for about a day, but he has since accepted his new hair style. It has taken me a little longer to get used to how different he looks. He no longer looks like my baby, he is a little boy now. Elijah also has recently decided that he needs to pick the clothes that he wears each day by himself. He does not differentiate between pajamas and clothes, so he sometimes leaves the house in a combination of the two. He will often go through several shirts and pants in a day, sometimes even wearing a few of each all at the same time. He also likes to try to wear my clothes, he will try to put on anything that is left on the floor or in an open basket, hamper or drawer. He especially likes my socks, slippers and shoes.
Everyday Elijah listens for Dustin's car to come down the street, and then he runs to the window to wait for his Daddy. It is amazing because we will be in the kitchen making dinner and Eli will just stop what he is doing and will go running to the door. He hears Dustin's car before you can even see it coming down the street! Pretty incredible for a little guy. Then when Dustin comes in the door Eli has to take his glasses and badges and wear them around the living room for a while to act like Daddy. Elijah also takes Dustin's boots and put them very nicely and neatly in front of the door.
