This was the first month that our little monkey seemed to be aware of the other monkey sitting next to him in the rocking chair.
Getting ready to eat whatever kinds of strange meats he may eat someday on the mission field...stuffed monkey is a good way to start getting ready to eat monkey brains! (Totally kidding by the way!)
Elijah continues being sweet and content. Our biggest change this month is him dropping his dream feed. He now sleeps from about 8:30pm to 8:00 straight! And he hasn't woken up at night for almost a month now. GO ELIJAH!!! We are SO thankful and proud! I feel like I want to tell everyone I see!Here are some other things Elijah is into:
Holding his head up, loves smiling at himself in the mirror,
dancing around in his jumper (wouldn't quite call it bouncing yet!), The first times were really funny because he had no clue what to do - he just kept sucking on the side of the seat.
He also likes sitting in this bumbo that we borrowed from some friends (excuse the purple color!). He sits on the table and has dinner with us almost every night.
And just yesterday he rolled over for the first time! I put him on his back to play in his gym and was in the other room. I head him crying like he never has before and I looked in to find him with his face in the carpet. He hasn't done it since, but it won't be long until it's consistent.
I really feel like this month is a big one. He seems to be making that transition from little baby to just baby and on his way to boy. Here he is with his grandpa and cousin, Lucas. 
I thought I'd get sad about it as he gets older, but he just gets to be more and more fun with each new step!
