And some more...

Today 'Lias was using the storage bin to walk to the table. I tried to get it on video, but he thought it would be funnier to dance instead. I'm going through all his clothes and packing up what's too small. It's very bittersweet to see my boy getting so big...or is it just bitter?

Tuesday, February 19 - Dancin'

Okay, so I know that this probably isn't the best thing to teach a little boy, but my excuse is that he was being extremely fussy on Monday so I started teaching him to dance. It's quite funny now since when he wants our attention, he'll start to bob his head. Apparently Mommy looks pretty funny doing it because a guy came up to us in Chili's tonight and said "it's amazing the things Moms will do in public with their babies!" He's missing out, I tell you...I'm sure he's just jealous he doesn't have a little dancing Elias!

Thursday, February 14 - Falling asleep sitting up

Last night, I went in to check on Elias after he had gone to bed and he had fallen asleep sitting up! In all the commotion of getting the camera, he woke up before I could take the picture. Tonight, I was prepared with the camera when I went in to check on him, this is what I found. Our flash works pretty good since the room was completely dark when I took this picture. And he didn't even wake up! He did once I moved him to lay him down, but went to sleep without any crying, thankfully!

Wednesday, February 13 - More fun

Monday, February 11 - A book by April

Auntie April read Elias a book...

Sunday, February 10 - Icecream!

Yes, our child does have a large mouth...






Lias had fun playing with Troy, or was it Troy had fun playing with Lias?

Our boy may have a strong likely for icecream...or maybe it's Grandpa Robert he likes. And no, he's never the center of attention.

Saturday, February 9 - Four wheelin

On Saturday, to celebrate Aaron's birthay, we went four wheeling. We took the four wheelers to this pretty little creek where April took some really cute pictures for us. These are the ones from my camera; I'll post ones from hers later. Thanks, April!





A precious picture of Daddy and son...






Another one...

April and Lias

Such a brave boy!

Apparently, someone didn't want to go down for nap...

Notice his hand on the four wheeler. He knows how to make it go!

Friday, February 8 - A mower ride

Daddy put these huge ear muffs on Lias today and took him for a spin on the mower. Needless to say, both of them enjoyed themselves immensely!

More of climbing out of bed...

I had put Lias down for nap and was in the office working on the computer when I hear this horrid beeping coming from our bedroom. Elias had managed to shut off the monitor and the monitor receiver in our room was letting me know. What a naughty boy!

Thursday, February 7 - Lots of firsts...

Today when I went to get Elias from his nap, he was standing up in the crib! Scary when you expect a baby lying down in the crib who is instead standing up! So, this afternoon, I had to lower the mattress. Elias helped by pulling up on crib from the outside this time.



This is the first picture I took of Elias playing with the hub for the 4 wheeler.

The second one, he was all smiles for. I definitely don't think he knows what a camera is, do you?

Looking at Daddy

Another big first today, but this time it was Dakota who made the improvement. He actually laid down next to Elias! Normally, it's the other way around. So cute. Maybe he'll start liking this screaming, loud little creature after all.

Wednesday, February 6 - Fun Bathtime

Elias learned this fun little thing today. Must keep Mama on her toes!
