We I done celebrating Elisha’s birthday. We did it a few days after so we couod all be home and my sister (in-law) could be here. And we gave Elisha her own cake, of course Ezra helped her eat it.
Kids
So my little girl has turned one year old yesterday. She has grown so fast, so have my boys. Elijah is just 9 and like me when I was his age, he is growing faster and bigger than his classmates.
I will say this about Elisha, she is definitely more persistence in trying to get what she wants. With the word no being a challenge of wills to her and she almost seems to like the challenge more than the thing she wants.
Mean while, I started my first hydroponics setup and have some plants growing.
I will be getting more hydroponics to go a long with this one. I’m starting hydroponics for a few reasons, the reasons being,
- Because the soil in my back yard is so bad, that I can’t grow anything.
- To have organic food for my family health.
- Save money.
- Have a food source just incase of runaway inflation or economic collapse.
My little girl is crawling now.
My little girl is crawling now. Not all over, but when she wants to get somewhere, she moves on all fours. She is definitely her own little person. She got her own quarks, likes and dislikes that don’t line up with her brothers. Yet, she shares so many similarities with them and a bond with her brother Ezra, who both are giving each other raspberries as I write this.
So cute.
So, I loaded up the car with baby blankets. When I say loaded it up I mean it. The trunk the entire back seat and the passenger seat. All that was needed because I purchase another $3,000 worth of baby blankets to give to the Hospital.
I told my boss at the lab to not say it was from be but the lab as a whole. My idea is that maybe it will inspire other departments in the hospital to also donate and maybe get some friendly competition going.
Trust me, the different departments are actually quite competitive. So, I hope to start something here.
Elisha has arived
On Valentine’s Day 2324 hours (11:24PM) Elisha was welcome into this world.
We are weeks away from welcoming our new addition to the family. Luz has another appointment next week, and they are going to tell us if they are inducing her a little early or if they’re going to have her come in on her due date.
If it’s her due date, they’re estimating our baby will be 9 pounds. That’s a scary big number when it comes to my wife who is so tiny.
Luz has put up a little bassinet thing going next to our bed so she can sleep in the room with us.
On a side note, her sisters coming in to help out. And mom and dad are flying in. We’re just not sure when they can get here. As they will be arriving in Los Angeles then be staying at another sister’s house in California, only to finally make their way down here.
So we only weeks away now, that final stretch to our first girl.
Baked My First Pie, with Elijah.
Although I love cooking I don’t typically bake sweets. I made brownies and cupcakes, but never a pie. So with the help of Elijah I made my first pie, Pumpkin pie.
