Random happenings

1.  Eli decided the other day that he was tired of waiting for me to push him on his trike.  And just like that he started pedaling.

2.  A few weeks ago, Eli got to spend some quality time with his Pappy.  They hadn't seen each other since LAST SUMMER!!!  Needless to say, they had a lot of playing and rough-housing to catch up on!

3.  Fall has finally started to make an appearance in Georgia.... the mornings have been crisp and cool and the leaves are starting to change colors.  This is my favorite season of the year so I was excited when the athletic department staff was invited to preview a new local corn maze and pumpkin patch.  We only got to go for about 45 minutes because of Josh's practice schedule, but Eli loved every minute.


Tractors and trucks are a few of Eli's favorite things these days, so the chance to sit on one of the vintage tractors put him over the moon.

This 'neigh-neigh' gave Eli a few kisses on the head.

4.  Eli is adding new words to his vocabulary every day.  Some of his newest words include:


  • doon (balloon)
  • truck
  • iieyee (eye)
  • dig dig (back hoe)
  • yay!
  • chock (chocolate milk)
  • fa-fa (waffle)

5.  Our trip to the Georgia Aquarium with my mom was awesome.  But it is a really hard place to take pictures!  I did have a few more that I wanted to share.


Eli loved the Beluga whales.  Their white coloring is so pretty against the blue of the water!

I can never get enough of the big tank.  I really think I could sit in front of it for hours.

Eli loved spending time with his MoMA!
