The Waiting Game

Eli has been a busy little boy....


Eli is enjoying the perks of Uncle Evan's police work. This week Uncle Evan gave Eli and his buddies police badges. He even turned on the lights and sirens when leaving the neighborhood!

Daddy and Eli had a picnic lunch in the front yard after all their yard work.

This is one of Eli's favorite "rides" right now. He loves steering through the neighborhood on the way to the park.


I guess he couldn't decide which toy looked the most appealing. His books are even more entertaining to sort...


We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Eli's baby brother. We will be induced on Friday morning if he doesn't make a grand entrance on his own. I tried to buy him a "Big Brother" t-shirt this week but it seems they only make those starting in size 2T. Why is that?
These last two weeks have been so much fun with Eli. We have soaked up every minute with him...When I put him to bed tonight I was overwhelmed by how much I love him. I prayed over him that Jerrold and I will make decisions in the upcoming days that will help Eli adjust as best as possible. How could we love another little boy as much as we love him? Our family is in for a whirlwind of emotions...
