13 MONTHS ALREADY...?

YES...Our precious boy is now 13 months old! He had his 1yr check up today since he is still trying to get caught up on shots so we had to space it out enough between the last visit and this one. Anyway... He is a growing boy! He weighs 21.9 lbs and is 30 inches long. He is 25% for weight and 50% for length. He goes back in 2 months for a check up and next round of shots.
Elijah is still not talking much. He says a few things like: bye, Ma, Dada. He signs: more, hi, bye, working on please and cup. He jabbers like you should know exactly what he is saying! He is drinking whole milk and still has 2 bottles a day. His absolute favorite food is yogurt and ice cream sandwiches. He will chase you down if he sees you with either. TOO FUNNY! He is eating all table food now. I love watching him experience new foods. The other day he had fresh pineapple for the first time and he could not get enough of it!
Elijah is a busy boy. He plays hard all the time. He loves to climb, play wrestle and play chase. He knows when Don is getting ready to go bye and bye and starts fussing to go with him. He LOVES his Dada. We are certainly loving every minute with him. He makes me laugh all the time! He has started enjoying reading books. He will sit in his chair and jabber away like he was really reading. Emilie loves to read to him and he will sit with her for about half a book most of the time.
We are leaving for vacation this Saturday. I am so looking forward to our family vacation with our newest member. I hope Elijah enjoys the lake as much as our other kids do. I will take lots of pics to share.
Here are few other pics:
