Eli is having a bit of trouble adjusting to being one of two children instead of an only child.
He has been giving his Nanna a hard time when she tries to interact with him. He is only sweet with his Mama and Dadda. And he is doing things that he knows he can't do -- throw washcloths in the toilet, for example. The second washcloth he threw in the toilet almost got flushed away too.
But with all of the difficulties, there have been some really sweet moments too. Like when he wants to give the baby high-five. Or when he said "Good night" to the baby and then put one of his very precious blankies in Ewan's bassinet. Or when he runs to get a diaper so I can change the baby. Or how he asks "Why is the baby crying?" when Ewan is screaming.
Today, Mama made a point to have Mama-Eli time: We went to the carousel together. We were only gone for about 45 minutes but it was perfect. Eli loved the carousel -- we rode it 3 times. And afterwards, he said to me, "That was FUN Mama!!!"
