The "Other" Babysitter

Ok, I know, I'm a horrible mother... but its hard to NOT let your child watch cartoons here and there. Especially when it distracts them for 10 minutes, so you can eat your lunch... or brush your teeth, or check your email. When I was pregnant, I said I would never let my child watch TV until they were at least 2 or 3. Hahahahha... riiiighhhhhttt.

PS. It's super cute to watch him watch TV, he's completely oblivious to everything else around him.

Martha Stewart was here!

The day after Valentines Day, we had small group at our house, and Martha Stewart took over and made these wonderful little desserts: Strawberry Heart Pillows. I couldn't help but take pictures, they were just so beautiful... and delicious! Even easier to make! They look difficult (a little time consuming) but super easy and a crowd pleaser. (Ok, now I really DO sound like Martha).

Can't you just taste them? MMMMMMMMmmmmmmm

Jared, aka: "The Baby Whisperer"

Jared has officially taken responsibility of Eli's swimming lessons, and its so great to watch the two of them bond every Saturday morning. It's actually really cool to see all the baby's and their daddy's in the pool (it seems to be quite the 'dad' thing to do). Jared is now known as "The Baby Whisperer" because he softly hums and sings in Eli's ear to keep him calm, and it works. It's almost as if Eli is in some sort of trance, he just seems so calm and focused. Its really cute.

Fuzzy Wuzzy Was A Bear

Great Granny bought Eli the cutest, snuggliest outfit for Christmas... here are some great pics of him showing it off.
