I Speak "Boy": It's been a while...

I thought it had just been two weeks, but looking at the last posting date....well, lets just say, once again, I'm Sorry.
A lot has happened in a month's time. We hit a few milestones (which ones...you'll have to wait just a little longer for those), had a few people visit, a couple of new babies (no not mine haha) and celebrate a BIG birthday!
We have some big things happening this coming weekend too, so I am going to give you enough to get you by for at least this week, and hopefully have some energy next week to update you on this coming weekend!

So lets start with ONE (yes, you only get one) Milestone (if you look, or listen closely you may see other milestones;)). The Big Birthday....PARTY! (Gram this is for you, because I promised I would get this on here as soon as I could....sorry it took a week and a day).

We celebrated Elijah's 1st Birthday a month late, in order to get everyone, including Daddy, Oma, and Vicki all in one room. We had a great time, and I think Elijah did too! He loved the cake (go figure), and loved his presents. He got a ton of books (and no duplicates- amazing) which he is already "reading". I am constantly finding him in his room looking at his books. I love that because it makes me think he will be an avid reader like his great-grandmothers, his Grand-Aunt and his Oma (among others, sorry if I left you out). My fingers are crossed at least....because we all know it took me 25 years to become a "reader".

Here are some pics and maybe a video from his party.
