To: Daddy, From: "E"

Two blogs in one day??

Dear Daddy,

I heard you tell Mommy on the phone tonight that you were missing out on my life right now. I asked her to put together something special for you...

Daddy...I LOVE my bath! It's not quite as easy for Mom as it used to be...I hate to just lay on my back in the tub, and I can't be trusted to sit the whole time so the tummy is my preference! This is a rare occurrence - that I am alone in the tub. For some reason this is the one time that BOTH of my brothers like to be with me - I prefer to be alone so I can stretch out and roam around the whole tub! Look at my rolls...can you tell I am eating a lot??

I like my "after bath" time too...but Mom doesn't really let me be unclothed for too long - I can't figure out why?


Mom couldn't get a good picture of me destroying Zach and Seth's train...but she wanted you to see how I am getting into things. Nothing is safe with me around! She put a lot of time and energy into building a monster track for "the boys"...what she didn't know was that I was the only boy who would be playing with it! Just call me a train-wrecker!

You would be pretty proud of me Dad...I am almost sitting up on my own. Mom doesn't know that I can do it on my own if I really try, but then Mom would leave me alone and I would rather have her attention so I keep toppling over just so she will stick around me...It's our secret o.k. Dad! Look at my fuzzy hair...it's quite fluffy and blonde.

Did you ever guess at 6 1/2 months I would scooching all over the house? I've got my brothers beat by at least a couple of months. My new conquest is the piano bench. I haven't quite motored myself over and through it, but I give it a go at least once a day!

Love you Daddy...I'll try not to grow too fast while your away...but remember, I have 2 older brothers I have to catch up to!

Love, Eli...

E,

Thank you very much for all of the great pictures and a commentary on what you are up to now days. You are going to be asking for the keys to the car before I know it. I really do miss you and your brothers buddy, and I can't wait to get to see you again soon...maybe we can work that out before July! Love you sweetie!
