santa clause is coming to town....

eli met santa for the first time, no tears, it went pretty well

eli and zac had fun playing together

i love christmas time!

we kicked off this holiday season with a christmas carnival. it was so fun! we took the kids (jayms, johnny, and eli) and they did all sorts of fun things. jayms went on the big inflated slide but i didn't get a picture, as soon as he got to the top he just flew right down and wouldn't do it again, he was terrified! johnny loved the animals at the petting zoo, but jay stayed close to grandma and wouldn't go near any of them. eli had a lot of fun in his stroller and on the train ride. i love the holiday activities murrieta always has, they're so much fun, and free!

happy boy

i went to get eli from his nap the other day. oh i love him.

just hangin' out

i guess he really likes shrek!

rub-a-dub-dub

sharing

violet is eli's cousin. his only girl cousin. she is a princess and everybody knows it, she makes sure of that. she doesn't like to share. she doesn't like eli to have anything that she's thinking about maybe wanting to play with at some point. i've included a few videos to show you just what i mean. there are four videos, you don't have to watch all of them, they're all pretty funny. enjoy!
