Bfast Burritos

We had breakfast burritos for dinner tonight. Elijah loved them with dip (salsa). He ate all of his oranges too. And he was still hungry after that so we gave him some yogurt. That's our growing boy!

How to Swing

Daddy is teaching Elijah how to have the perfect batting stance. Good thing we have a few more years to practice. I still think it's cute.

Playing in the Rain

Before: Elijah would barely touch the water so I showed him how to stomp in the puddle.

During: He loved running through the water and splashing around. He didn't like the mud between his toes.

After: He fell once and his pants were muddy and soaked. The pants went straight to the washer and we dried off and changed into clean clothes.

Tub Fall

Elijah 'fell' in the tub while taking his bath, and he decided it would be a great chance to practice his swimming (uhh....kicking) and screaming. So I quickly took a picture because it was cute, and then I told him that he needed to stop splashing and use his inside voice.

ABCs & 1,2,3s

We kept our old cell phones for Elijah to play with. We're still able to charge this one and it has a few toddler apps on it for Elijah. This app is for the alphabet. He taps on a letter and it tells him the letter and shows an animal with it. He really likes the penguin. 

We also use the old way of learning: books. This book is all about babies. The page he kept turning to tonight was this one where he can count the 10 crawling babies.

One Evening

Elijah had to show Bilbo where his water bucket is.

Then Elijah decided that it would be fun to get into Bilbo's kennel. He played with it for over a half hour. And he wanted Bilbo to come in the kennel with him and take a nap.

For dinner, we went out with Aunt Kass and GG. My flash on my phone was too bright so I only took one picture. We had fun coloring!

Bilbo Visits

Elijah loves playing with Bilbo even though the dog is much bigger than he is. He likes saying "Hi, Bilbo," and petting him on the back with gentle touches. Here he tries to get Bilbo in the kennel to go to sleep (even though it's not bedtime).

Elijah also wanted to put Bilbo's leash on him...to go for a walk? This picture is when Elijah was showing Bilbo the plane in the sky. I don't think Bilbo was too interested, but Mommy found the plane behind the tree just beneath the clouds.
