Touchdown!

Eli's new trick....say "touchdown!" and he throws his arms up in the air. Also, check out his new shirt that Hunter got him at the ESPN Zone in Denver. : )

Good Luck, Dad!

Hunter left for Denver this afternoon where he will start his new job tomorrow. His job is in Dallas, but his orientation is in Denver. Hunter is very excited about his new opportunity and Eli wished him good luck as he packed and got ready to go. Eli loves his Daddy!!!!

Dad's Day Off

Hunter is starting a new job tomorrow so he had the day off today. We took Eli to Willowbend to play. He had so much fun. They have such a fun play area for kids....even kids Eli's age.

After the play time, we enjoyed lunch at Chick-fil-A. Eli loves the chicken nuggets! : ) He tried to taste my lemonade, but couldn't get it to work for him. He didn't realize that Mommy loves the lemonade and the cup was empty!

Baby Beans!

On Saturday, my Dad brought over a box of my old stuff from their garage so I had a little walk down memory lane that afternoon. I found one of my favorite babies....Baby Beans! I don't know if that was her official toy name, but that's what I called her because her body is full of something that feels like beans. I gave Baby Beans to Eli and he thought she was pretty cool....for a doll! : )

One Year Pictures

Here are some of Eli's one year pictures. Unfortunatly I don't have the digital images, so I took pictures of the picture so I could post them. : )

Mystery Solved!

For several days, Eli was refusing all food - even crackers and Cherrios! Hunter and I were at a loss as to how to get him to eat. We tried everything...fruit, meat, cheese, cookies (I know, I know!), veggies...and he would not eat more than one or two bites. Thankfully, Eli is still breastfeeding so we knew that he was getting what he needed nutritionally, but we could not figure out the food thing. Then on Monday night, Hunter sat down with him and finally got him to eat. And when he did, Eli bit his finger! A NEW TOOTH! That's why he was not eating! Now that tooth #3 is pushing through, Eli is eating everything. His new favorite....blueberries! Here he his checking out a blueberry and a part of a cereal bar. He loves to study/disect his food before he eats it!

New Shoes!

On Sunday, Eli got his first pair of Stride Rite shoes. He was so good at the store when the man measured his feet. And, when he was trying on the shoes the man said that he did so good and didn't curl his toes like most babies....I mean, Toddlers! : )
