If I said this year has gone by quickly, I would be making an understatement. I can't believe that it was an entire year ago that I had my little baby, Elijah. What a year it has been. I love this little boy so much. He is such a social butterfly! He loves to go to everyone. He even had to have a cabinet contractor hold him the other day. He loves, loves, loves people. He loves all of the attention his big brothers give him. He is good natured and always lets Luke and Tess carry him around. Lately he is showing quite a bit of independence, and I feel it is just a taste of what is to come! He is almost totally eating big boy food, and drinking lots of milk. He is a total PIG! He eats and eats and eats. Last week I bought him his own half gallon of milk and only a couple of days later it was already gone. Although he is a big eater, he is still very small for his age. He hasn't gone to his one year Dr.'s check-up, but the last time I weighed him at home he was about 18 lbs. I will get his offical one-year stats in a couple of weeks.
We had a little cake and ice cream party for him a couple of days after his official birthday. He wasn't too interested in opening his presents, but thankfully cousin Evan was here to help him out. He thinks that he MUST hold the spoon whenever I feed him, and eating his cake was no different. He wanted a spork, but later decided to dig right in with his hands.
Happy Birthday, Elijah. I love your happy, smiling, little face.

What a cutie he is, i can not believe he is already one. I feel like you just moved away. Were does the time go?
He is so cute! Time really does fly. Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday, Eli boy! He is definitely the cutest 1-year old birthday boy around. If I had know you were having better than anything cake---I would've made the drive up for the real party! We love that boy!
PS- I will send his present back with Mom and Dad since I forgot it last week!
What a big boy! It looks like you had another great party up there...I am super jealous as always.
Happy happy birthday Elijah! Maybe at Rajko's 1st Birthday you'll be interested in opening presents and can help him out!
Cutest little 1-year old boy ever! Of course, he has Grandma's heart and I am so happy he will always be able to "run to Grandma's" if he wants to! The cake was delicious and the company was great -- so glad we had a wonderful reason to celebrate!
I can't believe Elijah is one and I still haven't met him! Time is flying by. I really miss you! Cute pictures of his birthday! Keep the updates coming - it helps me feel not as far away! I hope to see you this coming year... Happy 4th!
He's already 1? Wow, time flies. Oh, and I love the picture of Noah on Haylee and Darins blog. It made me laugh!
