So here it is 2 weeks later and I am just sitting down long enough to write a post. I've had an entire week off so you would think I would have sat down before now to post. I haven't even taken photos with anything other than my iPhone. And after all we have done in the last 2 weeks I don't even know where to start. We've mostly been trying to decorate our house a little more, which included painting a FREE antique we got. Eli and I sat out on the porch while I painted the furniture and he painted everything insight. He even lifted up my shirt and started painting my back. Thank goodness for washable paint. We've been trying to spend more family time and explore RVA including doing fun things like the Watermelon Festival. I've also been trying to engage Eli more by doing things like puzzles. I have discovered he LOVES those jumbo knob puzzles by Melissa and Doug like this one. I'm running out of ideas and he probably watches television far more than he should. What do you moms out there suggest for educational activities for toddlers?
Here's a note to new parents: Don't blink. Kids grow so fast and its so fun to watch. These last two weeks we have seen such a change in Eli. Its like he's almost two (he is lol). He's so independent and he's even using the potty every morning when he wakes up. I guess we will venture into that world pretty soon. I love his little personality. He's just like L.C. I mean, just.like.L.C. I don't want him to grow up. Just stay little forever.
Here are some snapshots from our past two weeks.
So grateful for you readers!
Love,
