My Little Photographer

Eli coming to get my camera while I take pictures of him from the floor...

Eli getting up close and personal with my lens. Thanks for the finger prints buddy...

Eli playing with my flash (it flips up and down in a fascinating way)...

Eli playing with his own camera- it's an old one that takes film- probably never going to use it again anyway...

With a look at that hair you can understand why the pre-op tech called him a girl...

Looking angelic for the camera!

One Day Post-Op....

.....and feeling fine!

Wordless Wednesday- My Babies!

Belated Weekend Video Pick

Eli's new favorite place to play is our deck- he loves hanging out and eating any naturey things he can get his fingers on!

Flashback Friday

This morning, Dylan said, "Isn't Eli crying more than ever these days?" So I decided for Flashback Fridays to post some pictures of his very first cries. So cute!

Weekend Video Picks

This is a little taste of what scooted into my room this afternoon to wake me up after a much needed second nap! We had a wonderful Saturday with my parents and company- we had breakfast at my sister's house and got to bring Eva over to play all day and then had an awesome grilled turkey spring dinner (compliments of my marvelous husband)! However, all this visiting and playing added up to no nap for me before I worked last night. Needless to say I was ready to be in bed a lot today!

It is so nice to sleep soundly, knowing that Dylan has Eli and more then keeping things under control (aside from my living room furniture which always gets re-arranged on the days he watches E) he is doing fun 'dad' things with him. One project included a massive box we had being transformed into a house with a window and a door (including knob). Today the project also involved a box (miller light if you noticed in the video). But today the box became a car for Eli and C. George. You can see the Eli is having a ball with his hair flying all over the place!

So that is motored in today to wake me up- so cute! Thank goodness we finally got new batteries for our camera!

Monday with Mommy

Now that Eli is on the move and takes most opportunities that we are apart to find me I find myself taking advantage of the times he is strapped into his high chair and unable to pull up and push any and all reachable buttons. We sometimes welcome the new day with him in munching on cereal, drinking milk and me catching up on my blog reading and emails. I took a few snapshots of just such a morning (minus me because no one wants to see what that looks like early in the morning!) Eli is becoming quite a cheeseball when the camera comes out which makes for some funny pictures! Please disregard his shiny face- we've been fighting a cold for about a week. Having kids is very rarely a dry endeavor.....
