| Eli right after a hair cut from Meme |
Eli - what a character! He loves anyone with food. This child will eat his college savings. I will have to get another job just to pay his grocery bill! He has started to say his first words - is actual first being cracker - no surprise there! But he says, DADDY, JACKS, BYE BYE, JUICE, BALL, MAMA (rarely), UP, BALL, Bath.......most of which just sound like BAH. But we understand.....its mommy magic. He loves to copy people, sounds, movements, and he will ask "WHAS AH?" (whats that?) and he will say "GAJAH" (good job!) when he is proud of himself. He likes to sing and tried to join in once he learns the word and sound pattern - his current favorite is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Eli is definately our climber. I catch him trying to climb the strangest things - I had to pull him out of a basketball hoop just the other day - he got stuck. He is relentless - STUBBORN - OBSESSED with pushing buttons. (actual TV buttons...not my buttons!) And damn the consequences! He will put up with a hand smack just to push those buttons - they are TOO tempting! But, when things get serious and he gets angry - his fits amaze me. I just stand back and watch in awe - Wow...how can something so NEW to this earth feel such hurt and anger? Kicking and screaming on the floor with big fat tears pouring off his red puffy cheeks. Its quite a show! I almost want to give him a high - five when its all over! The terrible twos are going to be F.U.N with this one.

But 90% of the time, Eli is a pretty cool cat. He is very independent, quick to temper but easy to please, and just goes with the flow. He rocks....
Jonah - well he just sleeps all the time still so he's easy!
