Elias is 8 Months Old!

My baby is now 2/3 of a year old! He has a little cold right now so his eyes are a bit red and yet he has still been all smiles most of the time. 

My sweet, sweet little boy. I love you so much and I just can't get enough of you! You are the happiest little boy I know even when you are under the weather. You are still an excellent sleeper and really do seem to love bedtime. You also love playing with all of your toys. Mostly shaking and throwing them around. You are SO close to crawling and I'm sure I will be updating about that next month. You also love saying "dadada." You say it all.the.time! (Your daddy adores it!) We both just love watching you sit and play and you bring us SO much joy. The sweetest thing you do is laugh when we laugh. Your daddy and I will be talking and then we laugh and you follow suit right away. Such a great reminder to be joyful whenever we are around you. Celebrating Christmas with you was wonderful I remember just last year I had my little baby bump at Christmas and we were excitedly anticipating your arrival. Having you here with us is the greatest Christmas gift we could ask for. I thank God for you every single day. Love you!

And of course some outtakes...

Also, Elias has a special message this month (with some help from Daddy)...

 "Hockey is back?! Go Leafs Go!"
