Bath time

While in America, Elijah loved taking baths in the kitchen sink.

A collection of smiles.

Elijah's first documented smile, at 5 weeks of age.

Meeting Mr Happy Apple

Tyler's favourite toy as a baby was Mr Happy Apple. Here are some pictures of Elijah meeting him for the first time.

Tummy time is just too hard!

At Grandma and Grandpa's

Grandma and Grandpa love me so much!

Don't let go of me grandma!

Sitting on the kitchen bench helping grandma cook supper.

I love my Aunty Allison - and my dummy (known in America as the pacifier)

I was not happy during this photo. Well, they did put those silly santa boots on me!

Finally Uncle Levi is at the other end of the camera.

Didn't get to try any of these Christmas cookies.

Grandma and Grandpa wear me out!

I love playing on my mat!

Elijah just loves to keep himself company on the play mat. There's a mirror hanging down and he just can't keep his eyes off that boy staring back at him! He also kicks his legs with great force - like he's riding a bike.

Going home

Showing Elijah his room for the first time.

Obviously enthralled by the living room.

We loved having grandma come all the way from America to help us out and enjoy Elijah in his early days.
