Cool Dude!

Here is a picture we took today of Mekiah with sunglasses on.

Mekiah recently had his elbow dislocated. We don't really know how it happened, but we think it happened when he fell down. It was the second time it happened. The first time, it popped back in by itself, but this time we had to take him to the doctor... The poor kid walked around for several hours and would not use his right arm! It was a very sorry sight. Apparently, it is a fairly common occurence for children under 5. And, it can also be hereditary... this would make sense, since I am double jointed. At any rate, the doctor was able to pop his elbow back in, and he is all better now.

Saying a few words

Mekiah is now learning to say a few words. He can say: mama, dada, up, hot, cheese (pronounced 'chshhhh'), cracker (pronounced 'ka-ka'), drink (prounounced 'dink'), water (pronouced 'wa-wa'), bye bye (pronouced 'ba-byeee'), and seeyoulater (pronounced 'eee-oooo-ay-ah'). He can also blow you kisses 🙂

Walkin’ down the aisle

Mekiah was recently in Brian and Jessica's wedding. He was the ring bearer and was supposed to followed the flower girl down the aisle. Unfortunately, when when saw the flower girl dropping flower petals, he proceeded to say 'uh-oh', dropped his pillow, and tried to pick up the petals. It all worked out, though, as he actually did not have any rings on the pillow. He made a very cute ring bearer in his tux!
