may ten

Today was a busy day for me.

Work all day and a fresh new haircut ....
but I got to get Eli up for his breakfast and was home in time for some Thomas and bedtime.
I love our bedtime routine.
On our way upstairs, we say good night to thomas, goodnight to his bike, good night to momma and dada (pictures on the wall) goodnight to the moon (which is almost never visible but he still says it)
and my favorite part... when he says goodnight to Eli in the mirror on the wall.
There are two square mirrors, one hanging higher than the other.
He says goodnight eli, and goodnight BIG eli (in the tall mirror).

My little stubborn boy will NOT say I love you...

he is playing games with me.

He repeats EVERYthing.

Even when you aren't talking to him.

But he will not say I love you because he knows I want him to say I love you.

But I'm really pushing it hard this past few days.

I think I almost got him.

I think my second little boy is going to be equally as stubborn.

He would not show his face for the ultrasound, no matter what we did.

But he has moved and twisted and contorted and moved my stomach in the most uncomfortable positions for the last 2 days.

It's like he's trying to bust out.

I know if I went back for an ultrasound, his face is surely visible now.
33 weeks today. 33 weeks!!

Here is what I am sure was Eli's favorite part of his day...
