Maddux's First Hike

Eli has MMO this morning so Maddux and I headed to Kennesaw Mountain for her first hike. Eli was a little older when he visited the mountain for the first time, but she handled it like a pro. Of course she slept most of the time, but when she was awake, she was quite alert and took in the scenery.

Over the weekend Eli got to visit with Cooper and "D": two of his favorite people. Last night we picked up a pizza and went to D's house; all day today Eli has been saying to me, "pizza. D. pizza. D." His newest words are "pizza", "elbow", and "baby sister" (taught to him by Grandma and Grandpa).

Speaking of new words, Eli can name pretty much any body part you point to, including his elbow, neck, and hair. One of his favorite games is to have Mommy say, "where is your eye/hair/nose/elbow?", so he can point to and say the part requested.

No new solo Maddux or Eli pictures, but here is one from last night with both of them. He loves to tickle her toes!

Well 'D' loves little Eli and is one of his favote people as well. I too have been saying 'Pizza' and 'Eli' all day, but that is because I was bragging to everyone that I had dinner with my godchild.
