Yesterday

Yesterday Ty had his 12 month appt. He is in the 30% for weight, 40% for height, and the 30% head cir.

21lbs 12.5 oz , 29 3/4 in, my baby isn't so babyish any more :(  He walks. tries to run, says more than a handful of words, sleeps really well, eats everything and anything, calls any one he likes daddy, insists on throwing his own dirty diaper away and continues to amaze us with how smart he is

His appt took 2hrs, and i have no clue why!

When we got home i was getting the kids ready for bed and had Julia use the rest room. She comes out crying, she got soap in her eyes. Mrs Drama milked it..and milked it. She cried for 20 min, when she calmed down enough to talk, she requested this, i complied, because it was so funny!

all because of soap in her eye,"i want a band aid to look like a cross over my eye" she says. And of course Elijah had to do the same. "Yellow"??? he says.

only difference, he took his off right away, Julia slept in hers *sigh*

Day out with TY

 Every birthday we have a special day out, in honor of the birthday child. For Tys birthday we went to the childrens museam in our city. I was suprised how big it was seeing i hadnt been there in forever! WE started the day going out to breakfast/lunch (lunchfast? brunch?) wich is a super treat!! we never go to resturants anymore. It went smoothly and no dishes to clean. Cant ask for more ;)

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

 

    

It was so much fun! 

Happy birthday Titus

Its just so hard to believe, a whole year has gone by...








Titus' last time going to bed an 11 month old.....

Singing Happy Birthday.....
Enjoying cake,















His siblings were so excited, he has no clue why

And they could hardly wait for present time.

Titus didn't mind either

He really enjoyed pulling things out of a bag,
a shirt mommy loves, also he got some new Jammie's,

.

and a room sign i made him

and daddy made him a toy box!!!

needless to say, little man had a great day. We had our customary birthday fun day out with Ty too, will blog about that another day though! I am trying to accept, that he is really 1!! It will probably take me a whole year to come to terms..and then he turns 2, but lets not think about that.

My Gift

Have you ever received a gift that was a surprise? Maybe on Christmas or a birthday. I think you know what I am talking about, the gift you never thought you would get, never asked for and in opening it you don't know what to say. Not that it was bad, just unexpected. At first maybe you don't know what to do with it, what function or use it has in you home. And then over time, you wonder how you could have ever lived with out it, it soon becomes something you love to tell other people about. And then it becomes that much more special, because someone knew that it was perfect for you, even though at first you didn't.

That is exactly how I feel about Elijah. My perfect gift from God.
