new do and a photoshoot

eli got a haircut. well, a bowl cut to be more specific. i shoulda known, the woman who cut his hair was an asian who couldn't spell eli's name and thought he was a girl. but it's been about a week now and i think we can live with it. well here are some pictures for everyone to ooh and aahh over how cute this little boy is, even with a bowl cut and a huge welt on his forehead. right when we got outside he did a face plant into the pavement, what's new. he falls big, doesn't hold anything back, sprawled out face down every time. (oh and he INSISTS on wearing his crocs, or "trocsh" as he puts it, with a sean connery lisp to it. yeah, serves me right for getting lime green that i thought would look cute with some things, now he won't wear anything else. when did he start having an opinion?)

here he is showing me how a butterfly flies. mike tried to teach him the arms crossed, backward hand, thumbs linked version. this way is much more 2 year old friendly.
