Blogging

So I've decided to start a blog (obviously). I don't know if anyone will ever read it, but I'm going to do it anyway for my own personal enjoyment. I keep telling myself I want to start journaling, especially since I want to keep record of all of Elijah's new accomplishments, but I just never get around to picking up a pen and paper. It's so much easier to type, plus I sit at the computer for a good portion of my days, so it all works out. So here's to the beginning of a new blog - yay!

So Chris is up north today and I'm missing him pretty bad. He's actually in Moorhead getting his head shrunk - he has to do some psych evaluation in order to become a sniper for the guard. So we are finally going to have proof that he is, in fact, a whacko. But ya gotta love him! :-) So he's only up for the day and it was just too much driving to bring Elijah along so we stayed here in Iowa and so far it's been pretty boring. I'm doing laundry today, yippee. It was a little embarrassing because I'm in men's pajama pants that are covered with Pepsi logos and a green tank top that doesn't match in any sort of way and of course a delivery guy had to come to the door... *sigh*

Elijah has been really irritable lately and taking lots of naps today so I'm hoping that he is finally gonna cut some teeth already! I brought out some new toys for him today, some blocks and stuff and he was very excited about those this morning. This week he had peas and pears for the first time and really liked them both. I also gave him some little chunks of cooked carrot last night from my dinner and he worked really hard at trying to pick them up. He would get it and then go to put it in his mouth and completely miss and then it would be stuck to his face or his hand... poor kid.

Well I am pretty hungry so I'm going to go find some lunch, ciao!
