That is Lehr's new nickname for Eli. He cannot seem to sit and focus at all these days. Lehr actually asked me yesterday where Eli got that from. (Seriously? You have no clue?!) From the airplane trip to any occasion where Eli has to sit on someone's lap for more than two minutes, Eli is all over the place. Toddler-hood is here, I guess. He wouldn't even sit on the front porch long enough for me to take some pictures of him this morning; he had to crawl over to the watering can, down the stairs, up the stairs.....
One of the most obvious manifestations of Eli's condition is his newfound interest to act like a dog or cat and chase objects around the floor. He bats around gator-ade bottles, soccer balls, tupperware..anything he can find. Clearly he is starved for attention and has no playmates. We captured some of this behavior while out west: Eli chased a (soft) pinecone around the deck for a good 15 minutes.
