Happy Birthday Dear Elijah

October 23rd was Elijah's actual birthday,

but since Ted was out of town for a wedding,

we celebrated Sunday.

Elijah had "lots" of help from our middle child!

(Who, by the way, had a bit of the "green-eyed-

monster over all the presents and attention Elijah

was receiving! :)

Showing Elijah's new shirt - notice the T-rex with

boxing gloves?? How appropriate for our little bruiser!!

Ted wanted to get in on all of the excitement that

Philip, oops, I mean Elijah was having over his birthday!

Soccer posed for my camera - what a handsome boy!





Waiting patiently for Papa to open all that packaging.

Getting operating instructions from his helpful brother.

Just enjoying making music.

Ah, the sweet melodic sound of a child's guitar!

A happy ending to a happy day.

We love you Elijah!
