For all those Eli fans out there, here's an update!

Eli is starting to pull up and partially stand, believe it or not! His dad keeps shouting to take his legs out, but mom and Amanda like encouraging him to walk and mature.

Here are some pictures of things he likes to do in a day:

He likes to start off the day with a nice piece of toast, preferably cranberry and raisin swirl with a little butter. He likes to share, especially with Jordan, and Jordan LOVES to like the butter from his fingers.

He likes to ease into the day with a little toy playing. Notice the teeth... he's up to seven! Oh, and the Burro Bag in the background. Eli is all about being at the height of indie fashion, that's why he's working on perfecting his rat tail.

He wants to stress how important sunlight is! A little bit each day keeps your complexion looking bright and sunny...

It is also important to stimulate your mind with a good book or sign language flash cards (mom is determined he will be tri-lingual in English, Sign and Spanish):

It is important to get exercise each and every day, even if it's a crawl around the living room practicing fish lips:

It is also important to engage your mind. Eli likes checking out the paper each night to find out what happened in the world:

And most importantly, keep those you love close...
