Hi Everybody!

I am so sorry that I haven't posted in over a week, but we have moved! Well, kind of. We have been really busy moving out of our house. We found out last Saturday that we got to move out of our house in time for the new renters by Sunday night. That is 1 week!! Mommy says she has worked her butt off..... (I still think it's there, though.) So, right now we have to stay in a hotel room until we get to go to Grandpa Doug and Grandma Donita's house in couple of weeks. We are already excited to leave here!!




As soon as Mommy and me get back from KC in February, we will be moved into our new house and we will send everyone our new address.

Right now, everyone can reach Mommy and Daddy on their cell phones, or you can call or email and get our P.O. box number if you want to mail something to us. (Or, just mail it to Grandpa and Grandma's since we will be there soon.)

This was when my cousins came over to my house to celebrate Thanksgiving on Friday! The above picture is one of the better ones of us. However, the below picture has all of my cousins, but it is kind of wild! Us kids made it hard for our Mommies to get pictures!

Ummm, well it looks like it is just me that is being wild....... Sorry!

I Look Like a Big Boy!!!!


Today, Mommy and Daddy took me to get my first haircut from the same person that cuts Daddy's hair! I was wondering why everyone was watching me, but Mommy told me that it was big deal to get your first haircut!

Above is the before picture and below are the after pictures!! Don't I look handsome?! Mommy said that I needed a haircut really badly, but afterwords, she said that maybe she wasn't ready yet. I guess she meant that she didn't want me to look so much like a little man.


I really look the part of a big brother now! Daddy and Mommy and me found out a few days ago that I am going to have a baby brother or sister in July! We are all excited, though Daddy and Mommy don't think I know what it means yet.

Peek-a-Boo, I See You!!!

Mommy took me to the park this morning to exercise and play! It was so much fun and my new favorite thing to play on are the tunnels! The picture above is when Mommy was saying my name and I peeked through a hole in the tunnel!

Every time we go to the park, I get to go on the big boy swings. I get better and better every single time!!

All About ME!!!


Hi people! Well, this post is all about me! Mommy took some cutesy pictures after my naptime (yes, I still take 2-3 hour naps!) She says I was acting goofy because I was smiling and making funny faces..........





I am such a sweet boy, though I have started becoming very set in my ways. I like things the way I like them, just like any man. For instance, when eating dinner, I will refuse to eat ANYTHING, unless I can do it by myself.... Then, I will eat just about anything. I know some people out there are probably dying to see "their Eli" since I haven't posted many pictures of myself lately!


Another fun thing Mommy noticed... She came across a picture of Uncle Chris when he was first born and Mommy said, "If I didn't know better, I would think that is my baby Eli!" She thinks I look exactly like Uncle Chris when he was a baby! Please, feel sorry for me!
(Just kidding, Uncle Chris. You should feel lucky that you were once as cute as me!)

Hi Everybody!

Hi everyone. Sorry I have not posted in a week, but I have been gone the past few days. Daddy's job had their birthday on Thursday so Mommy and Daddy got all dressed up and went to dinner and dancing. I couldn't go though. The picture above is me and Mommy yesterday morning before we left the hotel.
Here is a picture of Mommy and Daddy at the birthday ball. They said they had lots of fun.

And here is a picture of Daddy and Grandpa Rodger. As you can tell, everyone gets really dressed up for this event. Grandpa Rodger and one of his friends went with Daddy and Mommy to the ball this year so that made it very special.

What A Day!!

Hi everybody! Things around my house have been pretty boring and finally yesterday, we had some fun. Daddy was playing in a golf tournament and me and Mommy went to watch for a while then go shopping for Christmas presents. Boy did I have fun! Look what I did!


I watched Daddy practicing before the game started and Mommy tried golfing, so I figured that I would try too. The picture to the right is Daddy giving me the club.





This picture to the left is Daddy teaching me how to hold the club.






After I got the hang of how to play the game and practically became a pro, I decided to try to play on my own, which is what I am doing in the picture below.

And finally, here is a cute picture of me and Grandpa Rodger when he took me for a ride in the golf cart. It was fun, but only for a while, then I wanted out to play!

Halloween!!

Happy Halloween! I had so much fun last night! Daddy and Mommy and me went to the mall for some trick-or-treating and it was really crowded!! And (this is not just Mommy bragging), but I was the cutest one there! People at the mall said so and workers took my picture. There was a store that made Mommy and Daddy stop so they could get pictures of me and they said, "He is, by far, the cutest one we have seen!" Then about 30 minutes later, there was a woman that made us stop so she could video tape me.
Everyone said that I made a good chicken with my toddler waddle and chubby cheeks!


I got lots of candy and really enjoyed walking around the mall and not having to sit in my stroller. Also, everyone said that I was a "ham" when it came to people with cameras..... I think they must have been going nuts because, obviously, I was not a HAM!!! I was a chicken!!!!

Barnyard friends! After trick-or-treating at the mall, me, Mommy and Daddy went to a local church and had lots of fun playing games and look what I found! I got to sit up on the horsey all by myself and I liked it. Mommy thought it was funny because we are both barnyard animals, a horse and a chicken. Together at last! I even got to go for a ride too! But, Daddy had to sit with me.
Hey, also since last night was Halloween that means I am 14 months old now! Practically a grown up if you ask me.
