Now that E can walk and use signs to tell us what he wants and play with his brother and sister, things are starting to get really interesting.
I heard a lot of screaming and laughing (as usual) and running around, there was a lot of "He's going to get us!!" coming from Arch and Shell. I finally investigated, to find that Elijah was chasing the other two with a dangerous weapon. To be avoided at all costs. He had... the TOILET BRUSH. SO GROSS!!!
I proclaimed that they needed to take those kinds of things AWAY from the baby, they cried that they HAD tried but COULDN'T, and so they just ran away.
I REALLY thought when he was born that he'd have to learn to be tough to survive the rough play of his older siblings. I'm learning its the other way around. He often injures them. They'd better toughen up, sharpen those reflexes and learn to stay out of his path. He hits (with his hands and any weapon close by), he throws (really hard), he bites, he head-butts. Look out world, you'd better toughen up, because ELIJAH is here to stay!
