Mullinnix Family Blog: Fab Friday

A couple of weeks ago we went over to some friends house and they had an easel for their girls. Eli just loved it. He was so excited to write on the chalk board and would come get us to show it to us. So of course we had to go out and get an easel for Eli. When you go out and buy a toy for your kid that they seemed to have loved at someone elses house, it never fails that they will never play with it at home. That is not the case with this easel, Eli loves it. He has to color on it everyday. Today he had to color on it before going to MOPS, then after lunch and again after nap. During Eli's nap today I got to go run an errand to Walmart and while I was there I found dry erase crayons. Up until this point Eli could only color on the chalk board side because I am just not ready to deal with markers yet for the dry erase side. But these crayons are awesome! Eli was so excited when he saw the colors and what they were for!

Eli is so talented he can color with more then one color at a time!

Eli also learned that if he stands on mommy's legs he can reach more of the board.

Eli took a small break from coloring to have a cookie and some milk. But that didn't last long because he figured out if he sits on the edge of his bench he can eat his cookie and color on the easel at the same time! He's such a smart cookie!

We decided that we would go out for pizza tonight for dinner and we decided on Gramaldi's pizza. We decided to go there because after dinner Eli could go play in the fountains. The host took are stroller so he could "park" it for us so it was out of the way and Eli was not happy that he took his stroller so I let him sit in my lap for a little bit. Eli decided it was a good time to go through mommy's purse.
