night is his need to not have any other children play with his toys. No matter what Tyler pulled out of the toy bin (even if it was something that Eli has never shown an interest in), Eli whimpered and protested. This did come in handy when Eli was eating his dinner, however: Tyler pulled up on the chair and tried to grab Eli's milk which caused Eli to snatch it back and gulp it down as fast as he could. (Eli had been refusing to drink the milk, so that worked out great.) The insecurity Eli felt was quite unfortunate considering how eager Tyler was to play with him. He was a very polite and friendly guest, not that it helped Eli's territorial attitude at all. There was one feel-good moment between the boys when we went to the playground. They both loved the slide and while they took turns, Eli never complained that he had to wait for Tyler. (Hey, I'll take what I can get!) Eli's favorite way of enjoying the slide is to go down on his stomach, backwards (so his feet hit the ground first and he's looking back up at the top of the slide.) I took many pictures, but he was moving so fast that they all blurred a bit, which is a shame because Eli could not stop laughing and smiling.

Look out world: Eli thinks he is the king!
Eli's friend Tyler came over tonight to hang out for a few hours. Eli was already in a surly mood due to teething, so I didn't expect him to play nice anyway. An alarming trend with Eli that held true to
