A very Busy Day

Eli’s day started very early, (I wont say bright and early since the sun wasn’t up yet), I guess he was getting a head start for our busy day. Eli has taken to getting up in the mornings with Thomas and before you say how sweet that time would be 5:30 in the morning! So since Eli is getting up before me Thomas has been putting him in bed with me where Eli does not go back to sleep. So Eli periodically kicks me to wake me up. When I finally roll over Eli sticks his sweet little face right up to mine and says hi!

After I finally got up, got E his breakfast and ready for the day we headed to the gym. At the gym we ran into Eli’s girl friend Aubrey while they played their mommies worked out. After the gym we headed over to Eli’s wrestling buddy, Chad's house for a playdate with our playgroup where the kids were very busy!

We all took turns on the swings.

We climbed and slid

We decorated cookies

We ate the cookies

Of course after cookies we ate pizza

Then the boys decided to have a demolition derby.

This is what the mommies do after a busy play date!

After a very busy morning with our friends Eli and I headed home for nap time. We had such a busy fun morning even mommy took a nap. Of course Eli was gearing up for a busy after he decided to only nap for an hour. On Friday Eli is going to Kids Night Out at the church and it’s bring your own pumpkin so I decided to take E to the pumpkin patch at the church down the road. And since E is learing about orange and pumpkins at school he was very excited to go get one.

Look mom this one has a cool handle.

Can we get this one, it’s bumpy!

Ok how about these 2?

ok, then how about a whole bunch of pumpkins?

After pumpkin hunting Eli and I headed to the church to meet up with daddy for dinner. It was hamburger night and Eli actually ate a good about of his burger! After dinner Thomas took E for a walk around campus while I finished up my meal. Our church is working on improving our grounds and I was able to get some real nice pictures of E.

After our walk around the campus we asked Eli if he wanted to go see the youth and see if their band was warming up. Eli took us right to the mill where the youth meet but much to his disappointment they were not yet warming up yet. Then E took us to the children’s building and walked right into the preschool music class and sat down to learn about music (E is still too young for this class you have to be 3). But I was so proud of my little guy, he sat and listened to everything Ms. Ann said. Eli really loves music and I think he likes to learn about it too.

After church we got E ready for bed. When it was time to say prayers I asked E if he wanted to talk to God and he said he wanted to talk to God on the phone! Ms. Kimberly pointed out to me that Psalm 4:3 says "the Lord will hear when I call to Him”.
