Chatterbox

Eli can be moody, but yesterday afternoon, he was in a great mood. He had loads to say and loads of questions. Why are we going to the bakery? Where are Tori and Christian? What we getting at the bakery? And so forth. He kept up the chattering in the car and long into the night.

This morning, he woke up with more questions. Why are there school buses? Who is getting on the bus? Where is the bus going? And so forth. Who knows what he asked his dad on the way to the sitter’s.

Eli appeared to have fun at the waterpark this past weekend too. He liked the swimming and the games. He rode a few rides. Then he got tired and was a real stinkpot. He laid down in line at the sweet shop—people got a kick out of that. He laid down on the floor many times at the rides. Ugh—finally we got him back to the room and Huts got him to sleep. He was better on Sunday, though he ran off from me several times. Yeah, he’s a runner. He loves to run off when you are trying to shop. He gets into trouble for it, but it never seems to curb his behavior. We’re hoping he settles down by age 4. If not, I guess he is going to be seeing the time out chair a lot!
