Limer

My green kangaroo is celebrating his GOLDEN birthday today. He is now old enough to go to church dances, start high school in the fall and in his words--- He is another year closer to being able to date. I am sure all the girls can hardly wait!!!!!

Allias James was born June 14th 1995

I kissed Travis goodbye that morning and about two minutes later I had a pool of water at my feet. I didn't go into labor so they induced me that afternoon. He was born at 6:11 PM

He was my smallest baby weighing in at 7lbs 12 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long.
He was a few weeks early but I wasn't complaining. There were six Lisa Nelsons having babies at the same doctor's office at the same time but I am pretty sure I took home the right kid.

He was a daddy's boy right from the start.

He cried for the first two months of his life. After we figured out he was having digestion issues and put him on a special formula he became the sweetest baby ever.

His first word wasn't mommy or daddy. It was ball.

We called him Punkin until he was at least four.

After that we started calling him Limer or Linus.

He is my biggest helper around the house and the only one that keeps his room clean.

He has ALWAYS been concerned with making sure his outfit is just right!

Allias is such a great example to me. He has such a strong testimony of prayer. He says he even prays over the DVD player when it isn't working right, but he has also seen miracles happen because of his faith.

He is a great brother---- Kailyn and Tyler are soooo lucky to have him.

Win or lose he roots for the Seattle Seahawks, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Duke Blue Devils.

He is an AMAZING clarinet player and has been first or second (only twice) chair his entire middle school career.

I can't believe he is growing up.

Happy 14th Birthday Allias!!!!!! I am so proud to have you as my son!!!
