total slacker

I know, I know, I haven't posted anything in the last couple weeks. I've taken pictures but haven't been too thrilled with any of them enough to share them. This one was cute enough to share :) He looks SO big in this picture!

Eli will be 4 months at the end of this week. What he has been up to...
He is talking up a storm. Lots of screeches.
He rolled from his belly to his back on July 11th like 5 times in a row and then nothing since.
My family was in town last Wednesday thru Sunday (for my nephew's mission farewell). He wasn't able to practice rolling during that time cause he was never on the ground :)
He moves like a madman in his crib at night. He is completely turned around when we get him out in the morning now.
He cannot stand his car seat when it is warm outside. I can't say I blame him but it sure makes for a long car ride now.
He is still pretty good when we take him out to dinner but I think those days may be slowly coming to an end. One of us usually have to hold him since he isn't content just chillin in his car seat. I took him with me to get a pedicure today and again, he wasn't content in his car seat. Dang.

Eric and I took a scooter ride over the weekend. We left the monkey with my family and cruised around for awhile. It was so nice. We rode thru our favorite neighborhoods and hit a few open houses. Oh how we (me) want a house but how hard it will be for us (Eric) to leave downtown.

We leave Thursday to go visit Eric's family in NY. We can't wait to see everyone. And I'm sure that trip will bring many many photos.

I can't believe how big he is! It just isn't fair the 9 months they are in us is like forever then they grace us with their presence and times goes way too fast. Definately something wrong there! Anyway we (me, Julie, and Louise) missed you when I was in Utah. Julie and I kept saying only if Erin were here. Have fun visiting family!
