On Sunday Elijah was officially 18 months old. Our little guy is growing up so fast. He had his wellness check at the doctor today, and the doctor said everything is great. The doctor did grin and say that Eli's head is a little large for his size. But Dustin and I are alright with that since we know his head is just larger than the norm because he is a genius. LOL We were excited to find out that Eli has finally broken 20lbs for his weight, he now weighs 21.6lbs, and he is 31" tall. The last few months it has been really fun to watch Eli. He has started singing in the car with me, and he sings to himself while he plays with his toys. His favorite words are "ticka, ticka, ticka" that he says when he tickles mom and dad and he loves to say "eyes" and then poke you in the eyes (lovingly of course). He also likes to ask "what's this" or say "ohhhh, this" and clap his hands when he finds something he knows he shouldn't play with. He loves to wear shoes, and lately he insists on wearing two different ones at the same time. His favorite combination is to wear one white and blue Velcro tennis shoe and one brown leather sandal. It is truly a great look, and he has sported it all over Green Bay. He loves the video of silly sesame street songs that Grandma and Grandpa got him, and he tries to convince Dustin and I to let him watch it over and over again. Right now a few of the foods will actually eat are Curious George fruit snacks, green beans, chicken nuggets, fish sticks and strawberries.

Exercising the 2nd Ammendment
Dustin and a few of the other Tuggle Amigos (Uncle Frank and Dad) went shooting to celebrate the 4th of July.
Dustin was excited because he was able to shoot the SKS for the first time since he had made some improvements and changes to the stock and some other parts of the gun.
My Dad was very excited to go shooting (if you couldn't tell by the goofy little boy grin on his face.)
Uncle Frank shooting his chinese SKS.

Happy 4th of July
We had a great 4th of July this year. We went to see my parents and the Tuggle family in Illinois. Aunt Kathy and Uncle Jerry had everyone come over for a BBQ, and Erin made us this very festive and very yummy cake for dessert.
Uncle Jerry gave Elijah a flag and he was more than willing to put on a show of his patriotism for everyone. He ran around waving the flag and dancing for everyone until he was exhausted and couldn't do it anymore.
Dustin and I brought some sparklers and a fountain thing down from Wisconsin with us and we set them off at my parents house. Elijah loved the sparklers, but he was a little wary of the fountain and the whizzing and screaming noises that it made as it sparked.
