Elijah Right Now

So my big boy Elijah is very interested in how big he will be when he "frows" up. He is certain he will be bigger than Daddy even though Daddy is bigger than EVERYONE else. It's fun the view he has of his Dad!! We celebrated Elijah's cousin Derrick's 23rd birthday yesterday. Derrick is over 6 feet tall but Elijah was certain that Daddy, at 5 foot 8, is bigger than Derrick as Daddy is older than Derrick. It's fun to see life from a 3 year olds view:)

The other thing we have been working on is Elijah's speech. Frows (grows), shuice (shoes or juice?), and Lisha (Elijah) are just some of the issues he has. The "j" sounds like an "sh" as does the "g." He is still says berryfoot for barefoot. You kind of don't want to correct him because it's just soooo cute, except for when he gets mad at you because you have no clue what he is saying.

He has the best imagination ever. He can play with his dinosaurs for literally 2 hours with no break. They do all sorts of things, but they especially love to eat each other and shoot one another. It is a lot of fun to listen to him pretend play. Elijah also does a great job of playing with his brother. They like to wrestle, play tiger (crawling around after each other growling), and chase each other. They are great friends and great enemies:) But, what do we expect of brothers right!!
