Fresh Snow

You are growing so fast! Doing new things everyday. You love to brush your 2 bottom teeth. You love to climb your little slide. Yesterday we went outside to enjoy some fresh snow. It's amazing to see that sparkle in your eye when you experience something new.

Love Mom

Oh the things you get into....

As I prepared for my first weekend away since you were born I cleaned out the cupboard where I keep my scrapbooks. (I went away on a retreat last weekend - heavenly!) Once the cupboard was empty you just had to go into it - for probably no other reason then to see what was inside. You can't walk yet (should be soon though) but you get into more trouble then your sister ever did. Just remember, Elijah, a cat may have 9 lives, but you don't!

I love you - you little stinker!

Eli needs a good nights sleep!

I have no idea what your issue was today.. but, man - you were grumpy! Normally you can entertain yourself for 10 mins here or there.. but today - no way! Not only did you want your Mommy, you wanted to climb on me. By 6:20pm you had your bath and you are in bed!

Right now no food makes you happy. I have offered you so much in your high chair and you aren't buying it. Maybe you are teething?

Here's hoping you have a restless sleep tonight :)

I love you pumpkin!

Merry Christmas Elijah!

Today was Christmas day. This was not any ol' Christmas - this was your first :) We spend the day at Grandma Peterson's in Neillsville. At the house was Dad, Mom, Sara, Grandma P, Papa P, Aunt Beryl (her boyfriend also came - Chad), Aunt Debbie (her boyfriend Gregg also came), cousins - Jared and Connor, Uncle Charlie, Aunt Julie, cousins Mandy, Kandice & Sean, 2nd cousins Nicole, Hailey & Alexus. It was a big household!

You loved all the paper to play with. There was so much to look at and to get into. When we got home we gave you a tub and you went sound asleep.

We love you!!
Merry Christmas,

Mommy

Eli's first Christmas

Merry Christmas Elijah! This is your first Christmas. And you could care less :) You have zero interest in the tree. The only time you were interested was when I had the christmas lights on the floor to test them. Silly boy.

Tonight you were too funny. You were sitting in your little Elmo soft chair, you'd push back and flip over.. laughing all the way. Then, you'd get up and do it all over again. Over and over again. I don't know if you I entertain you or you entertain me! All I know for sure is how much I love you!
