Having fun around the house

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate the winter? I hate being cold and I especially hate being stuck in the house all day. The same must be true for Eli too because by 10am (only 3 hours after waking up) he is stir crazy. Before becoming a Mom I used to wonder why people had sooooo many toys for their kids to play with. Now I know! You can only play with the same toys so many times before you want to throw them out and get new ones! Luckily we are in Georgia and spring is just around the corner for us! Until then I have had to come up with things to make being in the house just a little bit more tolerable- I mean fun!

“Look at my new hat Mama!”

“Shoot!” We shoot the ball all day.

I didn’t teach him this but he thinks he can touch his tongue to his nose!

Not really sure what this is all about. Although he does think he needs to climb on everything and anything he can.

Eli uses Jack as a step stool for getting up on the couch. Peek-a-Boo Mama!

Eli goes ‘boom!” This is what happens when I don’t get him off the couch quick enough.

When Eli sees the salad spinner he goes crazy pointing and yelling, “Oooooo! Oooooo! Oooooo!” until I give it to him to play with.

Obsessed with the stove. Even when there is nothing in the oven Eli is constantly by it. He loves looking at his reflection in the glass. And just yesterday I caught him with his feet on the handle of the drawer. He basically climbed up the stove. After telling him NO I turn around and there he is opening the oven door. Thank goodness it wasn’t hot!

There is never a dull moment around here and I love every little minute of it!
