Fun with Sticky Tabs

Hunter gave Eli some sticky tabs to play with while Hunter was working. Eli peeled them off one by one and stuck them all over him. It was so funny!! When we took them off, Eli took them and stuck them back on himself.

Brushing Teeth

I didn't realize that toddlers could have tooth decay this early until I read a recent post on a yahoo! group from a mother of an 18 month old boy that had 3 teeth with decay. Yikes! Immediately after I saw the posting I went out and bought Eli a baby toothbrush and some toothpaste especially made for toddlers. Now brushing Eli's teeth and gums is a part of our morning and bedtime routine. He loves it - especially when Hunter or I brush our teeth at the same time. Who would have ever thought that brushing teeth would be fun! : )

Fun on the Farm

Eli and I spent a couple of days at Granny's farm this week. Eli loved being outside and around the animals. He got to see horses, a cow, chickens, bunnies, and a frog. It was so funny to watch him in this environment - boys are just born traits....like playing in the dirt, throwing rocks, playing with frogs, chasing rolly-pollys, etc.

Teething!

Eli is cutting four teeth at the same time. His top four teeth are coming in all at the same time...this is the result! I feel so sorry for him....thank goodness for teething tablets (thanks for the recommendation, Rebecca)!!

Fun with Friends

Eli had a couple of friends over on Tuesday. Aidan just learned to crawl so he showed Mary and Eli...he crawls very well! I just love this picture of Mary - she looks so excited!

Mary is getting tired...Eli and Aidan look very concerned.

Hugs for Elmo

Quilt Show

Today, Eli and I went to the Dallas Quilt Show with Granny (my Mom). Each year, Granny has a quilt in the show. This year she had a quilt that she made for Jessica (Eli's cousin). Her quilts are always so pretty!

As you can see, Eli was very impressed with the Quilt Show! : )
