Eli has thoroughly enjoyed the summer. He loves to be outside playing in the grass, swimming in the lake, ocean, or pool, and strolling around in his stroller or wagon. He is so observant of the sounds that come from outside. Dad even swears he said "dog" this morning when he heard a dog bark.
We believe his first real word is "bye". He says it whenever anyone starts to get off the phone. He knows the key phrases, such as "love you", "alright", "i'll talk/see you later", and immediately says "bye" when he hears them. Do you think I might talk on the phone too much? It is possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. He also waves now when he says bye.
He loves to go anywhere in the car. He is so good at playing by himself with his toys. He is really starting to take lots of steps together. He walked 10 feet or so yesterday. He hates shoes! Which is partly the "Tree hugger" in his mom and partly the "Alabama" in his dad. :)
He will be 11 months this Thursday. He has a cold/ear infection. He was weighed today at the doctor and came in at a whopping 19 lbs and 4 oz. Bless his heart. He is a tiny little thing.
Look for a Labor Day weekend post coming soon. Hope everyone has a great short week. Here is a little video Emily took from our trip back from St. Simons.
