Sorry for my lack of posts lately. Life is somewhat busy around here these days! I want to get back to updating more frequently though, because I feel like I have lots of ground to cover to get caught up. I'll hit a few highlights...
#1 being-We've been on vacation. It was FABULOUS! I think it really was my favorite vacation EVER! I think I was in desperate need of a vacation, so I thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. We went to PCB and stayed at Splash. I'd TOTALLY recommend it for family trips with small children! All three of my boys loved it, and that made me happy! I'll share a few pictures.
#2-I decided at the last minute I was not putting Sawyer in Mother's Day Out yet-nothing against it. I just had a change of heart. Although I'm crazy (REALLY!), I also realize that I'm not ready to give up two mornings a week yet. I talked to Katie on the phone a few days before it started, and she was telling me about how now that Grace is in school, she doesn't get to spend much time at all with her. So, it made me realize I'm just going to let him be little around here a little longer. He's a home-body for sure, and I hate to drag him away from his beloved sandbox and dump truck. A babysitter around here a few hours a week sounds lovely though!
#3-Eli started full-out crawling at the beach. He's been a scooter a while, but he's up on all fours now. He also started clapping last night. Sawyer clapped at him as Eli headed toward an outlet and said, "No-no, Eli!" Eli clapped back at him. Now, he thinks he's cute clapping, so he does it a lot! (He is really cute doing it too!) Eli's words only consist of "daddy," "mama" and "hey!" BUT give him a truck or tractor, and he'll "brrrrmmmmm" with the best of them.
Eli is a Very Cute RASCAL. His favorite things are electric outlets, pulling the plants down off their stand, knocking his baby food on the floor, playing with computer cords and the vacuum.
#4-Sawyer has some SERIOUS imaginary friends. They're cows. They've been around about a month now, but it's gotten a little more intense lately. They're cows, but they fit into his fist. Tonight we went to the park, and when we got in the car, he cried because one was obviously caught in his cup holder. I reached for the cup holder and pretended to hand the cow to Sawyer, and he immediately quit and was very relieved. He goes to the back door all the time and says, "Come in, cows. Here's some hay." It's pretty amusing!
PS-We're also potty-trained/outdoor potty-trained. I caught him yesterday naked as a jaybird outside. He had pulled off his shorts and underwear because he had to tee-tee.
WONDER WHY I'm CRAZY!!?!?!?

Ash, Good for you for not putting him in MMO. But let me tell you, a sitter one morning a week would be worth every penny, unless you like going to Walmart at 9pm? :) I've had a couple girls come so that I can go out without JM and it's been so nice. I'll see if either of them have friends in Enterprise. They're both married and mature! One has a military husband so she may have a couple friends over there! Love you and we have to play soon!!!
Loved this post! Love the Williams!!
The cow in the cupholder literally made me laugh out loud!! I needed that. How funny. I LOVE, LOVE that stage when they start doing and saying so many funny things! Eli and Sawyer are too cute :)
