Look how much he has changed from 2 months to 8 months old!

I am having so much fun staying home with Elijah everyday. He is really developing a personality. So far he seems like he is very passive. He loves to smile and is pretty much always in a good mood. My sister and I put socks on his hands and a toy in front of him to see what he would do. He kept trying to pick up the toy with his sock hands. And when he dropped the toy several times he didn't even get frustrated. He would either stare at his sock hands, touch the floor, or try to pick up the toy again. It was so cute! He was so laid back in the frustrating situation, and yet he handled it very well. Here is a picture of me and my bubby!

My mom and (sister) Melissa just visited us this weekend. They had lots of fun with Elijah. We all went to "picturpeople" and got more pictues of Elijah taken. His halloween costume was a camoflauge hat and nothing else. That's right, people!!! He was buck naked. It is so adorable!!!!! While they were here we got some good pictures of Elijah. This one is his "tough face!"

Like my hat? Please remember to pray for my PapPap who is a US soldier in Iraq.

Here is a recent family picture of me, Ry, and Elijah in the backyard of our new home in Louisville, Kentucky.
