I Loooooooooooooove Strawberries!!!

soooooooooo, I had to have a 2nd bath!! But I don't care, because Daddy lets me take long ones! hahahahahaha!

I am 16 months old today!

The words I say often are...uh-oh, OK, tickle, duck, ball, truck, cat, dog and up! The words I say sometimes are bear, Mama, Dada, no, grapes (my favorite food), hello, stop and book. However, I talk all the time in my very own language, but I get a lot of uh huhs, oh reallys and a few ya don't says. I speak with such conviction, since what I have to say is very important...even a year ago... yes, here I was in January last year...
Other interesting things I like to do, that milestone charts say I won't be doing till I am older are: climbing! stacking - EVERYTHING, I use a fork and spoon, I use a phone and a brush and comb, I take my own coat off, I only take one nap a day, I like riding my moveable toys, I feed my Mommy, Daddy and anyone else who will let me, I dance to music, I throw a ball, I take toys apart and put them back together (the right way), and I 'read' books talking (pretending I am reading them myself). I run, go up and down stairs (using the bum-rest method...which I taught myself), I can point to a picture when asked where it is, like the bunny or the dog or the cat; along with bringing items when asked "bring me the truck, the car, etc" - and am I proud of myself when I do! Finally, I looove playing with other kids. I can't wait to learn other things...Have a fun day!

My Parents let me have a whip cream treat at brunch since we were celebrating Grandma's birthday! Sugar comma... Proud Daddy!

Happy Birthday to my Buddy Gus who is 1 today!!
I loooooove Cheerios!
on my cool bike!
and on my cool Tractor!

Have a great weekend! xo Eli

Happy 65th Birthday Grandma!

Here I am yesterday, on Dr. Martin Luther King Day...what a wonderful man to celebrate! Mommy got film developed that she had for a couple weeks.... Clapping to the music in the car!

New Years Eve... On the way to the beach!
Chasing Pigeons by Uncle Landon's house
Mommy, let me go! I'm trying to catch the birds!
There he goes! I loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove my little dude! -Mommy

This morning, on the way to play with my friends, I noticed this sign in front of our house... I guess we're really moving! OK...Off to play...Later!

Hello Everyone...Mommy and I had so much fun playing today...Time to go to the park! It was freeeeeezing on the way there ...but in So Cal 'fashion' Very Sunny! So join me on my little adventure... First, it's time to 'lose' this hat Mommy and time to get SERIOUS about the sandbox... This takes complete and utter concentration... (you can see it in my eyes) But wait! There are other kids here! I'll be back... hahaha, are you following me?

I watched two older ladies do jumping jacks and I started to dance...but there was no music strange...places to go... bridges to cross... Where did I put my 'shades'? The 'Polar Express' needs a captain! I'm 'all over it'... This is getting serious!

Yeah! Daddy came to meet us! I am sooo tierd...5 hours awake! Nice pillow... my belly makes a good armrest... Ah! 'jammies' and a good Baby Einstein Video...way to end a great weekend! Night! xo Eli
