Eli-ese

A twenty two month old little boy.

A little boy who loves buttons, driving in his mommy's car, and basketball.  Mostly, just buttons.  His favorite is the garage door opener and he has it in his hand most of the time.  I have never seen anyone get so excited over a garage door opener or a set of keys.   This love for buttons has only caused a few emergencies, like the time he locked Pop's keys in his van or when he closed himself in the garage and we were all locked outside.



A little boy who has his own language and refuses to speak English.   It always amazes me that he can get exactly what he needs with a squeal, scream, or a few words that are unique to him.


Eli-ese:  Here are a few of his favorite words.

Daddy = Nan Nan
Owen=YoYoeee
Gabe=GaeGae
Bridger=Dawd Dawd
Garbage=Da Doe

This little boy is also adamant about his shoes.  They must be on his feet at all times.  I have decided not to fight the nightly battle. So, yes he sleeps in his shoes.  It's actually very convenient because when he wakes up in the morning we can just head right outside to take Gabriel to school.

This little boy just makes me smile.   My little Eli.
