Elijah's First Trip

Well, we hoped for the best but expected the worst, as far as how Elijah would handle his very first trip. But we never anticipated him to be the angel that he was. The trip to Florida involved practically every mode of transportation--planes, trains and automobiles, even buses! He slept on anything that moved and hummed with an engine. He was wide-eyed and observant in between, especially at the airport, with its hustle and bustle. He makes a great traveling buddy. It was wonderful for us to spend five days together without the usual distractions. We could see that he benefited so much from the constant stream of attention he got from us and his grandparents, great gram, and Uncle Al.

Elijah grew up a lot this past week. He's "talking" so much already, lots of cooing, mostly vowels. : ) Oh, and he LOVES taking a bath. Lots of splish-splashing! ~Nasreen
