It's about time!

Well 10 days shy of his 17 month birthday, Eli gave us a few unassisted steps today.  Once he took 1 step and another time he took 2 steps.  Boy this kid has sure taken his time!  He cruises around like a champ holding onto something, but it's like his feet are glued to the floor if he isn't holding onto something.  

My favorite thing… Just sitting on the tractor

Eli's first haircut

Guess who hated his first haircut?

Mommy, I'm ready to go back to San Diego!

Eli loves....

being crazy on the bed, standing up, falling over, smashing face first
into the pillows, laughing hysterically, stopping for a moment to
watch the fan

fans - any kind. ceiling fans, fans on a stand, any fan

tractors, and anything that looks even vaguely similar to a tractor
like a golf cart

dogs - when we are out for a walk and a dog passes out of sight, he
starts crying and signs "more"

cheese, fruit, and ice cream

baths

books and more books

the beach! I took him for a lot of walks in San Diego, and when we
got to the beach I would say "do you love the waves?" and he would
start waving like a crazy kid

Those cheeks

It has started already

Jonah: I have a girlfriend

Me: oh do you? Does she know she is your girlfriend?

Jonah: no but I will tell her on Monday

Trey: have you kissed her?

Jonah: no, but I want to

Day 1

Our first day in San Diego! We couldn't get into the condo until 3, so after a LONG wait at Dollar rental car, we had a late lunch near the condo. The boys played in the sand right outside the porch.
