Bare Bottom!

This picture doesn't have anything to do with the following story, except it is of Eli and shows his personality. Eli and I were having a power struggle this evening. He wanted to take a shower and I wanted him to wait until after dinner. He didn't want to wait and so he decided to take his clothes off right then and there. Grandma told him "I can see your bare bottom." He replied, "It is not a Bear Bottom, it is an Eli bottom."

Bless the Rebels!

I was in Eli's room and saw him praying. I wanted to help coach him and so I told him that Grandma is sad because she misses Grandpa Jansen and so we should pray for her. I then replied "Grandma misses me." I smiled at his remark and then continued to explain that we should pray for Grandma because she is sad. I don't know what he was thinking, because then he continued his prayer by saying "Heavenly Father, bless the rebels (from starwars.) ... Amen." At least he understands that we need to ask Heavenly father for help.

Peek-A-Boo!

This is Riley's first laugh. I am happy that I got it on camera to share for all of my followers.

Riley Learns her B's

Riley has been spitting with her lips all week and It upset Eli. In order for him to stop yelling at her for it, I told him she was just practicing her letter B sound. For some reason, he found that acceptable.

The Cutest Little Angel

These are some of the cutest pictures I took of Riley. I thought I would show off my cute baby.

Zirberts!

This video is more about testing out my camara and blog ability. Eli is giving Riley a Zirbert and it was so cute watching Riley's reaction, that I decided to post it.

Flash Those Baby Blues!

Riley has her father's blue eyes (as well as his brow, toes and everything else) and I have decided she needs less pink in her wardrobe, and more blue. They really bring out the blue in her eyes.
