Some stuff from recently :-)

So, assuming I actually get this posted today, then this video is actually from just a couple of days ago :-). Eli and I had been drawing using this "twistable slick stick" things that he got from Grandma Debbie (they're actually really cool! they're like a pastel almost), and I put his master piece up on the wall (he was into Orange that day), and then Mommy's had to go on the wall too, then he thought it would be a great idea for me to put a blank page on the wall for him to draw on, after looking at the marks on the table, I decided that the bottom of the laundry basket would be a better idea :-). Anyway, he started drumming and singing along, so I thought I'd best take a video, after all what is a Mother to do? I did go and get his toy guitar after this and we sang songs with it, but I have trouble playing and videoing at the same time :-). Sadly, all but his master piece later became "dirt" or coal for his "train," which consisted of some empty boxes all lined up in a row.






This second video is Eli learning to be polite :-). He says excuse me when he burps (for the most part) and he's really catching onto saying thank you too. He's pretty cute though because sometimes when he gives someone else something, then he will tell them thank you instead of waiting for them to tell him thank you.
