Another Monday without Daddy


Breakfast at Nanny and Papa's house.


Today Eli and I woke up at Nanny and Papa's house. Eli played around their house most of the morning until it was time to leave and met our friends at the pool in The Woodlands. The pool we went to is in the back of The Woodlands which is close to Kid to Kid. I have been wanting to go to Kid to Kid for a little while now since I was told that they had several kitchen play sets. So before going to the pool we stopped by Kid to Kid. Poor Eli fell asleep on the way there ( I was told Papa woke him up way to early this morning) but as soon as we walked in the store and he saw all the toys he was up and ready to play. So I found a play set that the price wasn't to bad but I was not sure if it would fit in my car. I am so proud of myself, I got that thing in my car! I just had to rearrange everything, but that's why I'm a tetras champ!

We got to the pool and it was packed! We found our friends but of course our kids wanted to do different things so we didn't get to spend to much time together. After our friends left we ran into more friends from church. But of course after they got there we had to leave since it was close to Eli's nap time and he was already so tired. Eli and I headed for home, I don't know what was up today but traffic on The Woodlands Parkway was really thick, I guess everyone was out and about getting ready for school.

At the pool, gotta love those blue eyes!

Shortly after we got home I put Eli down for a nap and then I put stuff away from our trip and put our pool stuff away. I then messed around on the computer a bit and decided to take a nap too. I guess I finally laid down to take a nap around 2 and when I woke up it was 5! After I woke up I went up stairs to check on Eli who has been in bed since 1. He was still passes out in bed but he hadn't been in bed since 1! His crib animals where all over the room, he pulled down a basket from his shelves and he had his gymbo in his bouncy chair. So I have no clue how long he napped for but I sure needed that nap.

I decided to go ahead and wake the little guy up since it was after 5 already. Of course as soon as I woke him up he said, "eat". So we went downstairs where I made Pink pancakes. These are pancakes made with beets and apples. I don't think these were Eli's favorite but he ate them. There is also ricotta cheese in the pancakes so along with a veggie, a fruit there is protein. A full meal in a nice little pink pancake. After dinner Eli just played around the house while I cleaned (I had to make up the cleaning I missed while I was napping)

Even with sleeping until 5 Eli was ready to go to bed at his normal bed time. Eli went down without any fight. One interesting thing I started doing with Eli is counting if I want him to do something that he's not doing. Like I had his bath water ready but Eli wanted to keep playing in the game room. I told him 2 times to get in the bath and he ignored me so I started counting. I don't know what it was about counting but I only got to 2 and he ran into the bathroom. Also while brushing his teeth I wanted him to open his mouth so I could get his back teeth and he told me no when I

I am so proud of myself for updating my blog yesterday. I did it from my Mom's house on her computer. I even was able to do some pictures in the blog using my mom's computer! That is a big feat for me since I am not very technology savvy!
