Eli Lately

Eli is growing so quickly.  He keeps us laughing daily.  His little personality is a bright spot in our lives.  I can't believe he's going to be four years old in just a few months.  Here's a few things about Eli that make us smile.

*When Eli gets an idea a little spark comes on his face and he exclaims, "I have a 'dea'!" (idea - I)

*When Landon spits up or has a dirty diaper, Eli runs around yelling, "EMERGENCY!" and grabs a diaper/wipes for us.

*Eli holds and eats his pizza upside down - cheese/toppings on the bottom.

*Eli loves to play baseball in the yard.  Daddy pitches for him, and Mommy has to sit in the yard and yell, "Go Braves, Go Braves, Go!" whenever he gets a hit.

*You know the pledge of allegiance, My Country 'Tis of Thee, pledge to the Christian flag, and more.  You say all of those at chapel each week at school!  We're working on you memorizing Scripture.  You've learned about 5-6 verses so far.

*You don't have a toothbrush.  You have a "brushteeth".

*You LOVE the Ninja Turtles.  Ninja turtle anything is awesome in your book!

*You love to eat "cheereals" for breakfast - a mix between cereal and cheerios.

*Abidell (Abigail) and Mannie (Maddie) are your best friends.

*You are an awesome swimmer.  You still wear your puddle jumper, but are basically self-sufficient in the pool with that on.

*You love to talk on the phone with family.  It's fun having conversations with you! : )
