Precious Prints
For those of you who know someone over seas, across the world or country, or just someone you cant not be with take a look at this site.
My cousin and I have started this adorable thing call Precious Prints. She started it because my Uncle Dean was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2007. They are soft little balls wrapped in felt with a loved ones (grandchild or child, etc) hand print on them. We are currently looking for more colors and such and will be updating more and more.
Please check out our site and let us know if you want to order any of them.

9 month check up!!
Well, Elijah had to go to the doctor today. WOO-HOO!! No shots or blood tests, no needles. He weighs 17 pounds, 28 inches long and his head is 46 cm. I know his weight is scary sounding, but doc said since he started out small that his growth curve is on the right track and said that between now and about 2 years his weight will just steadily increase. The major thing they look at his how his head is growing and well he is a healthy baby boy. Doc said between now and 1 year he will steadily be able to eat more table foods, which shoot he does that now, when Fan & I eat.
He is also getting to where he is getting braver to stand on his own for longer periods.
I am already starting to try to plan his 1 year birthday. He may not remember it much, but we will have lots of pictures and fun and I want to make it a big deal on his birthday every year. For now we will have it at our place for the most part.
Thats all for now!

Growing, Growing....
Well, Elijah is growing almost too fast for me to blink. He can now whistle once in a while. If he does something good we say "yeah" and clap and now he claps too and smiles at us. He can give us high fives. If you ask him how a lizard goes, he moves his tongue in and out. Last night Fan & I were walking him back and forth between us and we got him to take 3 steps on his own.
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! My dad's only brother came down from Montana and his two sisters from Ohio came down and we had everyone together totaling some where around 40 people more or less. Eli had some turkey, ham, cheesy noodles, bread, rice, mashed potatoes, juice, pumpkin pie, cheese cake, deviled eggs, and green beans. Only little bits of everything, but still sounds like a lot.
We did not attempt the Black Friday shopping event. Kinda glad. My brother stayed over and we watched movies and relaxed.
Sunday, we had a friends Thanksgiving with Andrew, Amber & Kelsey; Glen, Brandy & Emma; Jo'elle & Cody; and Dustin. It was a good night. Eli had more turkey, mashed potatoes and green bean casserole. Then had some mashed lima beans, sweet potato, and pears.
Well thats about it for now. I will post again after Christmas. Hopefully by then I will have Elijah's online photobook page done with only current photos to add. :)
Lovies,
Fan, Sara & Elijah.

Oh my!!! I'm sorry!!!!
Well so I've been a bad updater on Eli's life. It's been a month since you have heard from me......
Since my last post.......
Elijah is crawling like crazy all over the house and anywhere else we put him, he easliy pulling up on everything, getting braver by pulling up on Fan or I and then letting go for a few moments. He likes to sing "la-la-la, da-da-da" sometimes "ma-ma-ma" and recently likes to say eeeee-la, which kida of sounds like "Eli" in baby. He likes to stick his tongue out and try to talk.
He is having bathroom issues, but am narrowing down the problem and giving kyro syrup and plenty of fresh pears from my friend Amber's grandma's pear trees. He loves his bath time soooo much that when I go to wash him or his hair he fights and cries. He likes to pull up in his bath tub and I sit him back down so he doesnt fall. Scary.
He is playing more and more on his own. If you take something away from him he will cry and scream. Mommy and Daddy are not liking that too much. He likes to be chased by daddy, but if I chase him he crawls right to me. :)
Elijah's first Halloween was wonderful. Fan & I took him to the mall and met up with Mike, Jamie & Lane, and Brandy & Emma. We walked to mall, Eli slept most of the time, but still was able to get mommy and daddy some good candy.
Last Saturday, we had out first mommy's day out with Amber, Andrew & Kelsey. We went to eat out and then moms and babies went to the near by lavender farm. It was nice to go hang out with another mommy. Eli tried to kiss Kelsey but she pushed him away. They are so cute together. On our way home from the lavender farm, they both were singing together and then passed out together. AAAWWWWW!!!!
I am still re-arranging his photobucket page. I'm also trying to find something different that is easier to use.
That's all I have for now. Stay tuned.

No longer staying home
Well, much to my dismay I had to go back to work this week. I work for Erika Jones Appraisal Service. It is just me and her in the office, which if you know me I like to interact with more people, but oh well. I do what I gotta do for my family. There are pros and cons as in any job. Quietness, lonely at times, not much to do. Paid holidays, vacation, sick leave, holidays are when banks are closed (mostly). I don't like pumping, want to retire my pump, but still giving my baby the nourishment he needs for another 6 months. :)
Life is wonderful. Fan & I have talked over and over about me staying home and finally he told me to work like I use to, be happy and know that as Elijah gets older we will be able to afford the things he wants. As if he doesn't have grandparents that wont already do that. :)
Saturday, Oct 11th he started crawling. Hands and knees and then with his butt up in the air while on hands and feet. I will be posting a video of it on his photobucket so look for it. He says "da-da" and last night he crawled over to me because I was eating my dinner and he wanted some. So he pulled up to stand at the couch and he was grunting as if to say "I want some" and I kept repeating to him to say "ma-ma" and a few times he did say it. So of course I rewarded him with mashed potatoes (his fav.) He is into everything these days and if he cant get it he fights and cries for it. Lucky for him, I had ruined one of my cell phones and now he gets to play with it.
P.S. I lost all of my numbers, SO PLEASE send me your numbers so I can add you back into my phone.
I got Elijah's Halloween costume and can't wait to take him around trick or treating. He is going to be a monkey this year because he likes to climb on everything especially all over me and daddy. I'm trying to keep up with taking bunches of pictures of him, but when I so he always looks at me and comes towards the camera. Oh well. I am planning on taking pictures for Christmas.
