Cai is apparently on a cleaning binge. He pushed around a box yesterday filling it with every scrap of trash he found saying he was "recycling." And today he went through his toy box with a wipe, wiping down every toy.

So Eli was hitting me and just laughing and laughing. So I pretended to cry to show him that I didn't like it. Cai sees me crying and comes over and kisses me. Eli just laughs harder and hits me again. So Cai kisses me again. And Eli hits me again. At which point Cai takes a diving tackle at Eli saying, "I'll protect you, Mommy," and then ( Read more... )

The day has come that the boys actually play together. Really play. For the past couple days the boys have been going up stairs and been fire fighters putting out fires working together. And playing with their car track. They have been up there for an hour or two each time. It is amazing. I am so excited!

Whoo Hoo! I found a veggie that I can get Eli to eat. Tomato soup (so i guess it is a fruit, but at least somewhat healthy). It is a start. And he just slurps it down. Yay!

there is a lot left in this day, so it may change, but as of right now.

Cai: "Eli, Don't drive your trucks on the t.v."
Me: "Yes, Eli, don't drive your trucks on the t.v."

So Cai had his 2nd emergency room visit this afternoon. He pulled Eli off of his bike and apparently Eli's head crushed Cai's pinky when he fell. We didn't realize this at first until from time out a panic Cai yells "My finger's doin' sumpin ( Read more... )
