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.

Such a big boy...growing up so fast..awesome, simply awesome!
What a cutie! He looks like such a big kid! Eli sings and chatters away all the time, just like Liz used to.(Please, for my sake, don't teach him the Fievel song!) Eli is such a happy little boy and he really is like a ray of sunshine in my life. Keep the pictures coming!
Om my goodness, what a big kid. He doesn't look like a baby any more, he looks like a little boy. It's only been a few weeks since we've seen him and he's changed so much. Time seems to be flying by. We are so excited to see him and travel to Utah with him, and Mom and Dad too of course. See you soon.
