*So I wrote this post a long time ago (Eli is 10 months now), but am just getting all the pictures added and it posted, I will stay on top of blogging someday....lol
Our little man is just growing, growing, growing these days and doing so many new and fun things! This past month has been pretty eventful!
|
He is such a happy boy!! |
Eli got to meet his great grandparents for the first time! They came in from Colorado to celebrate my mom's 50th birthday! He also got to meet one of my mother's brothers and his family.
|
Eli and his Great Grandpa and Grandma |
|
Happy Birthday Mom! 50 and Fabulous! |
Eli got his first goose egg. Poor baby! He face planted into the side of our coffee table. The swelling and bruise set in immediately, but by the end of the day it was looking much better!
|
First boy injury! |
|
His head looked much better by bath time, so thankful! |
That same day, Eli discovered he could pull up and stand in his crib. Of course, I had to take pictures of the occasion, so he was pretty mad that I was just standing there and not getting him out of bed! We lowered his crib that night, and slept soundly knowing he wouldn't be able to flip out of bed.
|
Sad face.. |
|
Sadder face... |
|
And now just too sad...I guess I'll stop taking pictures, lol |
The day before Thanksgiving we took Eli and our niece Madalynn to the zoo. My brother, Caleb,
tagged along as well. This was Eli's second trip to the zoo, and he loved it! He responded much more to the animals this time than he did on his first visit. Madalynn and Eli were both so fun to watch! One of my favorite conversations of the day...
Madalynn: "Those monkeys are silly!!"
Myles: "They are? Why are they silly? What makes them so silly?"
Madalynn: "GOD made the silly!!"
Both Myles and I laughing: "That's right Madalynn, God did make those silly monkeys!"
|
My handsome hubby! |
|
Love these two! |
|
Yes, I caught a picture of the pelican pooping, midstream ...that takes talent! |
|
Funny girl! |

Eli's face in the picture makes me laugh! |
|
Cuties...can you tell they are related?? Oh yeah! |
|
Caleb was so sweet to buy Madalynn a snack and drink with his own money :) |
|
Leaving the zoo...fun, fun day! |
Eli had a blast on Thanksgiving, he got to sit in my lap for dinner at my parents and eat off my plate. He was in love with all the big people food!
Eli also got his first tooth this month!!

Look closely and you can see a little toother! |
We love watching Eli grow and learn, it is so much fun!! We love you baby boy!!
<3 Mommy!
