Little Man

Here's Elijah wearing some clothes that his aunt Becky got him for Christmas. He looks so grown up in this photo... He loves his hat... He's definitely not a baby any more...!

Almost A Year Ago -Elijah Feb 2005

Dear Elijah,

I can't believe how much you've grown since last year...! You're getting to be such a big boy. You're walking and talking and in to everything...! I love chasing you around all over the place.

You've still always got a smile on your face. And you are just a joy and a blessing to this family. I Love You very much. There's nothing I'd rather do than hang out with you all day.

We've had a good opportunity to do just that these past few months as I have been recovering from knee surgery. I'd say that the extra time I've spent with you these past few months has been the most well spent time of my life...!

We're about to head up to the tennis shop together in a few minutes so I'm going to close here.

Love always, my sweet precious son...!

Daddy

Wrapping Up the Christmas Photos

Elijah likes to rock in the rocking chair at the tennis shop. That chair is almost 100 years old. It belonged to Elijah's Great Grandmother when she was a little girl.

There was some serious static electricity in the air the day this photo of Elijah was taken. He is about 18 months old in this photo...

Curly Hair'd Boy...!

I just love this little guy's hair...! He's had one hair cut in his life, so far. When I look at Elijah's hair I think about the scripture verse that says God has ordained his life and even knows the number of hairs on his head...!

Christmas 2006 -Opening Presents and Playing!

More Christmas Photos...!

Elijah got many educational and musical toys. The little music box shown above has been getting lots of play...!


Elijah had a an awesome Christmas. Here he is sitting on a present while he plays with his music box. The music box plays classical music and each side has a picture of an instrument that plays that individual instrument's part. It's really a cool present...!


Elijah admires his new Elmo chair while Connor opens up a present. Elijah was very excited about the Elmo chair. You can see the profile of Elijah's cheeks smiling in this photo...
