On my 18 month birthday!

Always on the move

I can't believe it has been 18 months since Eli Matthew made his appearance.

I don't have any status right now since our doctors appointment is not until next week, so stay tuned for those.

Eli is on the move all the time, he runs as much as he can. He is loving having Georgia around to run with. He also loves to dance, I have not been able to get him on video since he stops and runs to the camera. He loves throwing things, we are working on only throwing balls. He also loves water. I can't wait until we are in our new house and have his little pool set up, he will love it!

Eli's Words:

down, bye-bye, Papa, Mimi, GuGu (Grammy), dada, mama, more (sign and say), ball, go-go (when he wants to go somewhere), please (he signs this but thinks if he does he can get what ever he wants), all done (sign and say), he still barks at anything he thinks is a dog, yea, no (this one is not as much a favorite but still said too much), and I'm sure there are more but I can't think of any more right now.

First this month:

fishing, swinging on a big kid swing, moving to a new house, feeding the ducks, feeding the fish, riding a motorcycle

Eli is still facing backward in the car, the pediatrician said to keep him that way until 2 years or he starts having fits in the car, it is safer. He does not seem to mind, I have a kick toy for him and a mirror to keep him occupied. I think he forgets that I am up front and so he plays by himself. The only times I get complaints is when I turn down the music!
