Haircut/Lacrosse

Eli just got his hair cut this last weekend, it was getting sooo long, as you can see below, every morning when he woke up it was hilarious because it was spiked and just sticking up everywhere and in every direction (he looked just like his dad when he wakes up to go to work!!!) So we finally shaved it, he threw a huge fit when we were cutting it because he kept drooling down his chest and then the hair would stick to his chest and make him itch and he also kept rubbing his hands over his face and getting more hair in his mouth and eyes, poor kid was stuggling!!! Afterward he got to take a bath in grandmas giant jacuzzi tub and he was all better :-)

Since its so cold here Eli has been stuck having to play inside alot, so he's been really into his basketball hoop and his lacrosse stick. This is Eli playing Lacrosse, his uncle Kurt got him this really nice mini lacrosse stick last christmas and he loves to pretend he's just like his uncles. Whenever he plays he always says "I'm Kurt" or "I'm Troy" He's enjoys watching both Kurt and Troy play in their lacrosse games and he loves picking them out of the other players on the field, surprisingly, he always knows which one they are even though they have their helmets on.

Eli Loves his uncles and they are so so awesome with him, we're very lucky to have such great role models for Eli !!!

Grandma & Grandpa

My mom and dad came and visited for the weekend. Time seemed to fly by way too fast, I can't believe they're already gone, soooo sad!!! We had alot of fun while they were here, Spencer and my dad got to go to a Jazz game, we also took Eli to Cabelas and the aquarium. He loved running around looking at all the animals and the huge fish they have at Cabelas. Eli loves it when grandma and grandpa come to visit, he gets spoiled with lots of attention and lots of new clothes!! His favorite was to make grandpa Jim watch him play basketball.
Eli was so cute when we had to take grandma and grandpa to the airport. He made sure before we left that his backpack was in the car, he was prepared. However, when we got to the airport he soon realized he wasn't going to go with them on the airplane. He was so sad that he didn't get to go AND grandma and grandpa were leaving, poor kid!!
We're so thankful that we got a few days with my mom and dad, it was so great to see them and spend some time together, We Love You!!

New Years Eve Party

We had a great New Years Eve Party. The whole family got together and did homeade pizza and movies. Eli had a blast of course. We discovered that he loves to eat the pizza dough, as you can see!!! The little man was running around crazy all night, he almost made it to midnight but finally fell asleep on the floor watching the movie. He was so funny the next morning, he woke up and came into my room and the first thing he said was "Party over" in a sad little voice, it was so cute. The little Party Animal!!! We hope you're having as great of a new year as we are. We have been lucky enough that Spencer is still busy at work, another bonus is Eli is completely potty trained and finally recovered from his little surgery. Also we are looking forward to a visit from my parents this weekend!!!!
