Check'em out. Random, from the past couple months.

Yup. I do.

Just got back from getting Eli a haircut, which is still a pretty stressful experience for all involved. He has settled down, however, and is sitting in the living room. Grace just walked by him and said, "You look handsome, Elijah." "Yup. I do," he replied.

Erykah Badu? Or Jill Scott?

Elijah has a pretty remarkable ear for music. I'm pretty much constantly playing a game of "Who is this on the stereo/radio/ipod?" with him and Grace as we go about our day. His ear is sometimes most impressive when he mis-guesses, as he did twice at dinner tonight. He guessed "Donovan" for Belle & Sebastian, and "Rickie Lee Jones" for Sheryl Crow. Listen yourself sometime, and see if you don't hear the similarities in voice, production, etc. I can't help but get an incredible kick out of it.

Yelling

It's a sorry state of affairs, and a cruel indication of how often I'm yelling at Elijah and Grace, when I take pride and comfort in the fact that I DON'T yell at them for coughing when they're sick.
