Random pictures and birthday pictures for your viewing pleasure!
(I have quite a bit of video footage from his birthday but I don't have the right cable to put it on the computer...I'm going to make cd's of it to send to the PA folk!)


Eli with his cookie goatee:


Excuse the goofy lady...this was at the park one day...


One of Elijah's new favorite things...CHOCOLATE PIE!


Elijah having a pretty bad hair day!


On the night before his birthday, he decided to toss corn meal all over Grandma B's living room...he looks rather pleased with himself!


Adam's follow-up to last year's awesome monkey cake. This is the crazy candy cake...


I think he looks rather pleased with his creation, don't you?


Elijah's new rubber frog boots...his cousin has a pair just like it and Elijah has always loved wearing them! They're still a few sizes too big so he trips in them a lot...probably would help if he would put them on the correct feet!



Elijah doing what he is so good at right now...melting down!


I don't think it'll fit me! I'm sure it'll fit the birthday boy, though!

Elijah's new skeleton pajamas...



He's so cute..."rides" around on that boat by pushing with his legs!






(goof ball!)


And finally, Elijah likes to take his clothes off after sleeping if I don't get to him quickly enough...


He sort of got stuck!

Enjoy...

My super cute date for D6 on Wednesday night:




Ron and Ari, those are his shoes from you! Thank you again!!!

These are from when we got home:

Trying to ride on his boat...






This was Friday morning while he was spending time with Daddy:


and this one was from a few days ago when he decided to be super cute:


The following are from his photo shoot...it was a self portrait project!








Some of you may know that Adam has experienced these "self portrait sessions" as well...definitely passed that one on to Elijah!

Finally, with the exception of the picture of him sleeping in his chair, you may notice that there is NO PACI in these pictures! We have been completely paci-free (not even nap time or bedtime!) for two days now! Sometimes when he gets a little worked up he'll ask for it but we just divert his attention and he forgets about it. Wanna see what we did?


Now, first of all, PLEASE don't tell me how cruel it was to cut the tip of his pacifier off! It was very traumatic on Adam and me...we snipped it without his knowledge and then gave it to Eli for his nap. He put it in his mouth, pulled it out and looked at us very confused..."uh-oh" was what he said. We acted very surprised and basically told him it was broken. He took his paci like this for about a day and a half and just lost interest in it.

Thanks, Christie, for the idea! It worked beautifully!
