Rocky Mountain High

Hi,

I went to visit Mommy in Colorado!  Me and my GeeGee went in this big car that had wings.  Ms Albertine went with us too.  I could look out the window and see big puffy clouds!

When we got there it was late at night to me, but not really, it all confused me and my schedule.  We stayed at a hotel that had a bed for me and a lot of stuff for me to check out. 

Mommy and I played ball and the piano.  I’m such a musical baby, we had the best time!  We took Mommy to a place where they cut her hair and she looks so pretty….I love my Mommy.  I got to ride in a Big Bird car at the store.  Ms. Albertine held me in while my GeeGee took pictures.

Of course there’s a video of it all for you to check out.  I hope you enjoy.  Sorry I can’t stay too long.  As usual there’s so much going on.  No sooner do we get home than we have a new home.  I’m not sure about it all, but I do know I have a nice new crib my Grand Daddy Frank bought me.  Best of all, it’s in my very own room!!

I’ll have more on all of this next time, to include pictures and video.  Until then, as always…

Lots of Love and Slobbery Kisses,

A day at the park!

September 1st, 2008

Hi,

I had a fun day yesterday, and it’s all on video!  I went to a park, Fort Hunt Park.  Nothing beats running free in the great outdoors, feeling that breeze blow through those cute curls on the top of my head.

I have to admit, running in the park makes me feel like I’m learning to walk all over again.  It’s not fair, all those bumps of dirt and grass, but it’s all good!  My Uncle Dwayne helped this baby out, he held my hand when the roads got rough, and even picked me up and dusted me off when I needed.  Best thing is, there was no damage, and this baby wasn’t hurt in the making of my first outdoor video.

I had lunch outside too, imagine that, it’s a picnic!  I couldn’t eat all of my “hot dogs”, but lucky for me Toby was there to help out.  That was so nice of him, willing to help me eat my “hot dogs”…he’s a great dog.

Make sure and check out the video of my adventure at the park, there’s a button on the front page of my site.

Lots of Love and Slobbery Kisses,

It’s about time Aunt T!!

August 17th, 2008

Hi !

Seems like it’s been forever since my site’s been updated.  Honestly, it’s not my fault, it’s cause I told Aunt T want needed to be done, and she didn’t do it.  I gave her an earful (I’m sure eventually they’ll catch me on video doing that).  I think I have her straightened out now, and it won’t happen again.

I had my birthday party 2 weeks ago (ugh, must keep site up-to-date!!) and it was great.  Mommy called me and everybody sang to me.  I got lots of presents and had a birthday cake.  I never got all of this before, I can’t wait to do it again.  Gee Gee put up the guys from Sponge Bob on the wall (hehhehe, she thought Patrick the star fish was crabby patty, but we got that all fixed).

I had a very special visitor to my party, Mama Tucker.  Everybody says she’s 105, and I’m only 1, I’m like, ok, whatever, all I know is I really like her.  I got a cool tee shirt too, but promised I wouldn’t say from who, cause then everybody would want one….but I’ll say thanks to “you know who”here.  It got me to thinking, my tee shirt could be the start of my political career!  I was even thinking the phone could ring next week with an offer for the VP position, but Aunt T burst that bubble….who’d believe 1 is too young.  Oh well, if Mr. (soon to be President) Obama needs an infant advisor, this baby is available!

I got a honey pot too…but Aunt Wendy and Uncle Collin forgot the honey, or maybe the Pooh Bear they gave me ate it?  Granddaddy Frank gave me a doggy that talks to me, but only if I squeeze a paw, or pull an ear.  I got a Tonka truck, a musical instrument, a Sponge Bob pillow, a Bailey Bear, and lots and lots of clothes (I love clothes!!).

It’s 6pm, and that means dinner time.  I’m a growing baby, my Gee Gee’s a good cook, so I gotta go!

Until next time,

Lots of love and slobbery kisses :-)

Busy, Busy, Busy, and more Busy!

July 18th, 2008

Hi,

Wow, if you can’t tell from the title, I’m BUSY!  Yep, sometimes I can hardly keep up with myself.  I keep going and going and going, just like an energizer bunny, and just as cute if I do say so myself.

I’m still walking, and doing a good job at it.  Actually I’m about up to running at full speed now, and I don’t even fall down as much.  I figured out the whole balancing act, and I can even carry things.  Even though I can carry things around, I do prefer to walk around with my bottle hanging out of my mouth, isn’t that part of what my teeth are for?

I’m a very musical baby, I just love it.  I don’t care what kind of music it is, as long as it has a beat.  Of course not being that coordinated right now, sometimes I can’t keep up, but I do give it my best.  Aunt Tee taught me a long time ago (ok not really that long ago) how to beat on things to make music (yes, some think it’s noise).  Now I have “instruments” and there’s no stopping me.  You can hear my latest musical masterpiece on the video “The Music Man”.  You’d better check it out now, because one day it’s not going to be free :-)

There’s also a video posted of my latest visit with Grandma Darlene.  We had the best time, and I got to show her my natural athletic ability.  We were hanging out shooting hoops, it was great.

Before I forget, there’s one more new video added that I don’t want you to miss.  It shows me doing one of my favorite things….EAT PANCAKES!!  I wasn’t going to say anything, cause I know this is one of Mommy’s favorite things, but I can’t stand it.  I FOUND OUT ABOUT GEE GEE’S BUTTERY SCRAMBLED EGGS!!!!!!!  They are so buttery, you just can’t believe it, I love them.

Sorry I can’t stay and chat longer, but you know this baby’s got a lot going on, so until next time people……

Lots of Love and Slobbery Kisses,

Elijah :-)

I’m Walking!!!

July 5th, 2008

Hi, 

It’s official, as you can see from my new video “Elijah’s Walking This Way”.  I can finally walk, and I don’t mean holding on to stuff, or little baby steps.  I mean totally walking where ever I want to go!  That’s right people, I’ve hit the big time.  Granted, it may not be all that pretty, but I get the job done!

I can’t wait to see what all I can get in to now that I’m on the move.  I know I’m keeping my Gee Gee busy, but like I always say, a baby’s gotta do what a baby’s gotta do. 

I’m hoping by next month I’ll be talking becaue I’m tired of not being able to make the big people understand what I’m saying.  I mean come on people, how much more simple do I need to make it?  I can understand myself prefectly.  They do seem to catch on that “E” means eat, and if I go over and pick up the tray to my high chair it means I’m hungry.  I keep telling them “Bye Bye Bye Bye”, but they don’t seem to get the fact that I’m ready to go….in the car, bye bye bye bye.  Ok, so some times it comes out as “Vye Vye Vye Vye”, but I know that get the basic meaning of what I’m saying.

I hope you enjoy the new video.  I hope they (yes, that means Aunt T) put up some more videos and pictures soon.  Sorry I can’t stay longer, but I got places to go ……

Lots of Love and Slobbery Kisses,

Elijah :-)
