October 4, 2006
I just want to update some new adorable pictures that I've taken lately. I got to take the day off today and had a glorious day with Eli. We went to the zoo, and got to go swimming, and played with G-Daddy and everything. I couldn't ask for a better time.
Check out this face!
That picture was taken a couple of months ago. We were actually at a resteraunt, but he was being extra sweet, so we had to get a picture of it. At the time, it wasn't happening very often. But life is getting much sweeter in the Shulse household every day now. We are learning a new thing everyday. (All of us, not just Eli... Mom and Dad are finally learning how to discipline... i.e. train up in righteousness. :) )
See the new trick Eli just learned! The child is fearless and you can see it in everything he does. He's also finally discovered the power of a stool (or chair, or table, or anything else he can find to stand on to get to what he wants.) This is a frusterating new development because I've always been able to put things on the countertop when I don't want him to have it, but now, he just climbs up there. Sometimes I'll walk back into the kitchen and find him in the sink.
So he's having to learn a difficult new word.... Obey. He can say it pretty well now, but it's the application of the word that's harder to handle. But he's getting it. I'm thinking of enrolling him in a mommy & me gymnastics class.
He loves to pray now. It's a very strange thing to say, that a two year old loves to pray. But I think he genuinly does. At meal times, he will sit down and hold our hands and listen very closely when we pray. And when we say amen, he says "AAAMMMMEEEENNN" In a pretty southern accent. At night time, I take him to his room, and pray with him in the chair, and he gets so still and so calm. I hope that he will always feel that way about Jesus.
He had a wonderful birthday. I suppose I should post a picture, but I'm not sure which one... We did so much. He had a party at Ms. Eva's house and then we got to go to Chucky Cheese, and on Saturday we went to the lake, and played with "G-DA BOAT!" (long story.) Thanks to all those who remembered and made his birthday such a special day!
More to come later!.... So check out what we did the first of October!
