Two minutes old

Elijah turned 2 a few weeks ago and he is as much a character now as he's ever been.  If you ask him how old he is he says "two minutes."  We had a party for him down in Chicago over Labor Day weekend with many of his young friends (Alexis, Isabelle, Jaden, Josiah, Nathan, Alisha, Emily, Luke and many others).  We set up a kidde pool and wate rslide outside and they were a real hit.  Elijah loves playing in the water.  We also set up a pinata with candy that was an even bigger hit.....pun intended.  Elijah's cousin (technically, uncle) Stephen was the one who finally broke the pinata and the kids went nuts going for all of the candy.  Their parents thanked us for the hours of sugar buzz that awaited them.
