Saturday

Well today started off with Uncle Tim. Jeff's brother came for the weekend for a conference in Seattle. So we get to see them in the morning...then their off to do brother things for the rest of the day. After they left Eli and I headed out for an appearance at a fashion show to speak on Infant Potty Training. Eli kept stealing his potty seats that I had brought for display while I was talking, he did great though and everyone was so impressed with his potty skills. So then we headed home for some lunch, play and nap. After nap we got ready and headed out the door again to meet up with some friends at the Fair and go to the Rodeo.....then we headed home for bed at around 9:00. It was a good fun day with mostly no bumps.....
Eli has been a bit testy these last few days. Kinda like he has all these emotions and he doesn't know what to do with them, Nor do I for that matter. He hasn't breastfed now for about a week. I know that he has two teeth coming in on the bottom also. So I think he is going through a little bit of an emotional crisis. So I'm giving it a little bit of time for some things to work themselves out and I'll see how he's doing in a week or so. I know he's mad about his teeth and I know that he may also be struggling with connecting with me now that he isn't nursing. If you think to pray for us that would be great.

Anyways....here's the day!

Eli Made friends right aways, of course!
Clara and Eli shared Jo's and cookies and talk about baby stuff.

Back home for some play time.
Oooohhh Grampa Cox's birthday money got Eli a cool train that has puzzle animals on it. I let Eli open it up today.

Right into the costco box for some personal time

Kitsap Fair/Rodeo
2nd time's a charm

This little girl was just so intrigued with
Eli's dancing skills...she was like
"hey are you from So You Think You Can Dance because you are soooo good?"

These girls were so talented. Ages 11 and 12. They played the fiddles and sang, and Eli just danced and dance.

We learned that Jamie and Luke are afraid of birds...especially one's that are loose and chasing them...

Brenden did real good with the horses this time. He just stuck with his dada and didn't even mind. Of coarse this time the horse didn't almost eat him either.
