Another Tuesday without daddy

Eli slept in till 7:45 this morning, I'm shocked! And I slept in till 7. I guess we were still very tired even with the long nap yesterday. When Eli finally did wake up I went upstairs to get him and found him talking away on his play telephone. You would think with the way Eli acts that I'm always on the phone!

Breakfast with Eli is always fun. Some interesting things about our breakfast is that Eli has to announce to the world that he is drinking milk. Before he drinks it he has to yell MILK, MILK. And in case you were wondering oatmeal is a finger food. But after Eli uses his had to eat the oatmeal he wants it cleaned off.

After breakfast we made it to the gym, the first time since lat Wednesday. When I picked up ELi from Kids club Eli was at the top of the equipment playing with some older girls. Eli is such a flirt! I could have worked out for the whole 2 hours that you can keep your kids in kids club and Eli wouldn't have cared. He didn't want to go when I picked him up. An hour after we left the gym I discovered that we left the diaper bag at the gym so we had to go back and get it. Eli threw a fit because he didn't get to go into the Kids Club and play. What a change from when he would cry when I dropped him off and wanted someone to hold him the whole time.

After the gym we headed over to Toys R Us. I wanted to get Eli some pots and pans for his new kitchen play set. I also started him a wish list for his 2nd Birthday. Eli had a blast playing for all the toys but had a minor melt down when I took him away from all the power wheels. He got a quick spanking and started acting right after that. We were in Toys R Us for over an hour! I really didn't plan on being out that long today. Since it was already after 11 and we still had another stop to do we headed over to Chick-fil-A for lunch. Eli acted great durning lunch, I guess that little swat in the toy store really worked!

Eli found the "Power Wheels" section of the store.


Just had to get a picture of Eli in a pink Barbie car!


My kid know the good stuff! This car had cup holders and huge speakers!


Hula Hoop any one?

When we got home I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me, at the neighbors house. My sweet husband had sent me flowers but since I wasn't home when they came the delivery person left them with my neighbor. So after I got Eli down for his nap I went across the street to get them. I have such a sweet husband.

Eli enjoying a snack of gold fish and crackers after nap. He wanted to eat on the counter which was fine with me since the crakers make so many crumbs.

This evening was Home Group and Eli and I were hosting tonight. To say Eli was excited about having everyone over is an understatement! I wish I had a video of Eli and all the crazy things he would do. While everyone was starting to show up Eli just started running around the house making noise. He had to have run around the circle for about 15 minutes. Eli was all over the place he had so much fun with all the other kids. It was so fun having everyone over. The kids were into everything inside and outside the house, it was awesome! I look forward to hosting Home Group again but this time hopefully Thomas will be here for it!

How many kids can you fit in a small turtle sand box?


Having a break for water after playing really hard!
