I am now blogging at Blogg-ed Issue

Brett has been in Singapore for r a few days for a conference, meanwhile, mum & dad a and I, and cary on tuesday, have been very busy doing a secret "rennovation rescue". He's coming home tonight (read tomorrow morning, at some terrible hour), and I'm sure the look on his face IF he realises will be priceless. Pity I'm going to be asleep!

Elisha has been mimicking so much the last few days. TOday he grabbed a big teddy from somewhere, and brought it to me, and I sais something quite enthusiastically about the teddy bear, and he said quite cleary "teddy bear". Pity he never says these things more than once.

Very tired, as you can tell by the fact that I'm not fixing my typos... nighty night.

Elisha and I picked up his shoes from the shops yesterday, and today for the first time he wore shoes. I was surprised at how easily he adapted. Sure he couldn't walk all that well, but at least he was willing to give it a go. He wore them to church and kept them on until we got home again.

A few things while I'm thinking of them.

Went away to camp for the weekend. The first time leaving Elisha at home. I was very sad, but more terrified that he WASN'T going to miss me.

According to Brett he chucked the biggest tantrum ever that night because he wasn't allowed to play with his cup of yoghourt and spoon. And then in the morning he had a little hissy fit because I wasn't there to give him his first feed of the day.

He was very pleased to see me and I got loads of brilliant little smiles. Life's simple pleasures.

While in Melbourne I went to the op-shop and bought him a selection of toys for $1.50, I have to say they are probably the best bargain I've ever bought. Managed to pick up a jigsaw toy for 50c, and it normally costs well over $30 I think. I also bought this little baby puppet and he loves it. "Bubba" is a new word in his vocab since the doll has arrived.

He has also started kissing when asked, and this morning he was playing with "Baa" and Lavendar and he made them kiss each other. Then Riley and his Mummy came over to play and Riley got a hug and a kiss. They were some real melt your heart moments.

Just wanted to record a cute little Elisha fact... this afternoon when I was feeding him something I did made him laugh, and then he was laughing and trying to feed at the same time. Interesting combination.
