Happy 2nd Birthday Eli!!! Monday, October 19, 2009Eli turned 2 years old today. What a celebration! We had a family party yesterday and Eli had a blast. He loved having his family here, seeing his choo choo cake, eating cake, and opening presents. Landon and Ella enjoyed his party just as
much and had to help him open his presents. Landon had lost interest in the Thomas trains for a couple of years but as soon as Eli started to like them it has peaked Landon's interest as well. Ella is also a big fan of the Thomas videos and books so she loves to talk Thomas to Eli too. Right now we talk choo choos from the time Eli wakes up (it is usually the first words out of his mouth) all the way to bedtime where he often carries one or two trains with him. Thankfully we are getting our money and value out of all of the Thomas trains we inherited from friends and the ones we bought for Landon. Another big favorite for Eli is firetrucks and he got a "big big firetruck" last night as well. Funny how alm
ost every single toy he got makes some kind of noise, you would think that we would have learned our lesson by now.

chool, and his favorite lunch and dinner. I think Landon and Ella loved the fact that it was Eli's birthday because they got so many sweet treats as well.

am not a cake artist by any means but it sure made Eli happy so that was well worth it. The only thing was it didn't make such a sweet treat today in the aftermath. Funny what blue, black and red icing does to a youngster's diaper. Thankfully I threw away the extra cake last night after everyone went to bed.

He has been a wonderful addition to our family and makes us smile every day. It is so amazing at how different each child is. Eli happens to be our snuggle bug, momma's boy, sweetheart, choo choo loving, amazing little boy. Happy birthday "Epi" who was once Shuper Tobo.
