Christmas 2007 and Liam's 2nd Birthday

Elijah was doing his best impression of Santa, chubby cheeks and all. He is known by many names, one of which is "Spit-Up King" as Liam likes to call him. At 7 months he already has two teeth on the bottom, which of course makes him the "Drool King". We can go through eight or more bibs on a good day.

" Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas!!"

Liam and Elijah posed for a very quick holiday pic in front of the tree. We had to act quick since the Wiggles were playing on the DVD player.

"One... Two... Three... Wake up Jeff!!"

Elijah made Reindeer hats at Daycare. He wasn't very happy wearing his new hat.

It's Randolph the Red-Nosed Elf - santa's right-hand helper.

Unfortunately this was Elijah's only expression for photos. I've seen the "Deer in the Headlights" look, but this one is special. Can anyone say, "Duh"?

"Duuuuhh"

Liam and Elijah had lots of fun playing with one another. Elijah is finally a little tickle-ish and Liam took full advantage of it. Mommy and Daddy hope that this will continue when Elijah is old enough to play with Liam's toys.

"Say Uncle! Say Uncle!!"

Elijah's flexibility is pretty cool, but we are trying to down-play the foot-in-the-mouth trick, no matter how impressive he thinks he is. He has a lot more fun with his feet than Liam did. Socks simply will not stay on his feet.

"Tastes like chicken."

Liam had lots of friends over to celebrate his birthday and his best friend (shall we say, first girlfriend?) Quinn's birthday, who is only one day younger than Liam.

Birthdays - the candles are few, but the cakes are huge.

(for sharing with your friends, of course).
