Eli loves to go to Grandma and Grandpa Squires' to play in the water
Whenever we go visit Great Grandma Squires, Eli likes to serenade us with a song.
We went to Trin's dance recital and it was extremely hot. At the end Eli had a blast playing outside where it was nice and cool. This would be his happy face at leaving the hot stuffy air.
It is kind of hard to tell in this picture, but Dan found Eli in his windowsill. Eli's room has windows about two or three feet off the ground. He discovered he could climb up into it. I swear there isn't anything this boy can't climb. As of to date he has climbed the entertainment center, the window, our bed (which is pretty high off the ground), his changing table, his crib, the kitchen table, his high chair, and the couch (which he did go up over and got stuck behind it). He always keeps us on our toes.
Eli loves to be like daddy. Even to the point of wearing daddy's clothes.
Sorry this picture is dark but it so darn cute! This is at Naiya's dance recital. Apparently Eli didn't like the music, he kept plugging his ears.
Just to the east of our place is a canal. Eli absolutely loves to walk (run) down there and throw rocks in the water. This day we were lucky, we saw some ducks.
One evening we decided to go to the park and have a picnic. Dan and Eli took the bike and since I can't ride right now, I drove. Didn't make a lot of sense except Eli loves to go on bike rides with daddy. So it was worth it.
We got a pizza and enjoyed the shade. Then we went for our very first ride on the Merry-Go-Round. Eli had a fun time!
Of course we couldn't leave without going down the slide. One of Eli's favorite things to do.
This boy is definitely his father's son. Eli enjoying BBQ chicken and loving the BBQ sauce. Dan makes me laugh at how much he likes BBQ sauce. He even invented the SalsaQ, BBQ sauce mixed with salsa. Gross if you ask me, but I don't have to eat it.
Somebody left the pantry door open. Right now Eli loves to be a helper. When we have breakfast he loves to carry the oatmeal and the applesauce to the counter. He also loves to put the wet clothes into the dryer. As great of a helper he is, he sometimes goes above and beyond the call, like in this picture.
In June Dan attended a conference in California. Here are a couple of pictures showing the beautiful water and one handsome fellow.
We certainly miss Dan when he is gone but love it when he comes home!

Love the pic of him in Dan's sweatshirt. reminds me of E.T.
Great pics of your smiley guy. With all his climbing I'm surprised he stays in his crib. You must have to keep your shade pulls really high up. Love his reply to Dan as he sees him taking the video.
Wonder if Dan makes concoctions cause he grew up with his dad doing the same? I'd never try them either.
Hope he keeps up with enjoying helping. Love the pantry pic. Not sure which of the kids used to have a clean up clean up song for their kids but it worked.
