Happy late 19 Months Elijah Dean

Ok, so this past month flew by. literally! i cant believe you are 5 months away from being 2. will you please stop growing so fast???

you are quite the little boy lately. you say almost every word we ask you to say. one day you repeated "crap" when i said it... so mommy is going to have to be careful!

You constantly say "i sorry". it's so cute. when you bump your arm or fall down etc... you say "I sorry" and you are so serious. it's soooo darn cute!

you love your cousins so much and can say so many names now. you say Addyson, Stori, Jo Jo, Nini (for Nina), Josh, Pawpaw, Gandpa, Gandma, Gammy and Shell (for Michelle).

you are sooooo smart too! lately you have been super attached to me. Daddy works a lot and so when he is home and i leave you get upset and cry... Daddy has taken quite a few pics of you with you looking so sad...if daddy goes outside you have to go with him! you love talking to Daddy on the phone too and carry such a cute conversation with him. he is your favorite guy for sure! you and daddy play so hard and have lots of fun!

i taught you the word "yellow" and for some reason when you want a popsicle you say "lellow" or if i ask if you want a popsicle you yell "YA!" and run to the fridge and say "lellow"... ha so funny.

you absolutely love to dance! anytime a fun song comes on in the car you bob your head and when one comes on tv you dance. it's so cute. you always make sure i am watching you! and when Mickey Mouse came on the other day you said "mouse? mouse!" it was so cute.

you love to look at my digital frame and yell out whoever you see. "Da da, Momma, baby!". you love babies and you love kids... the other day we were at the store Carters and this 6 year old little boy was crying and you looked so sad and said "momma, baby"... awwwwwww.

you say "aw man" and "cool", and when something is really cool you say "WOW" really loud. if you really want something you say "YA!!!" ha

you love to sleep in "momma's bed"... you love your naps! i lay you down and you say "bye" and go right to sleep. it's so sweet. you always sleep with "doggy" and "puppy"... so now you have 2 buddies.

the other day daddy gave you a little picture of him and you had so much fun!! he put it in your truck and you ran in the room waving it going "Momma!!! Da Da" ha it was sooooo cute!

you love to go "ouside" and when you hear Brownie barking you say "No no" and you look at me. ha it's cuz when we are trying to sleep and she barks i yell no no to brownie. you are such a copy cat.

you love sitting in the recliner with a "bed" which is blanket to you. ha you have to have your doggy, puppy, cup and blanket... every morning when you wake up i will say "let's get up and get your milk" and you yell "YAY, CUP!!!" ha ha

you love to go bye bye and for walks with momma and when we go get the mail. you love it when people come over, you get soooo excited and yell a lot!

well sweet boy, you have definately changed our lives forever! each day is different and i love spending every day with you. We love you baby boy!!!!

love Mommy and Daddy
