Playing at the park (yes, I'm riding that springy toy with him!)! :)
He's fascinated with buttons and switches - LOVES (what we think is) the dehumidifier in our hotel room. As soon as he entered he went and got from the corner, rolled it to the middle of the room, untied the cord, asked us to plug it in, pushed all the buttons, checked the filter, got it all set. So cute!
Dinner out at sushi express seemed like a good idea, since we can all see what's coming down the sushi conveyor belt and we were hoping he would tell us what he liked. It worked! He chose abalone fish over rice, had some salmon, and picked and enjoyed the pudding. In the photo he's drinking water.
A man dining next to us at the sushi bar asked if we spoke Chinese and if Eli did. We told him we only know a little but he likes to talk a lot. He proved us right and had a conversation w the gentleman in Chinese. The man asked him if he was 4 or 5, he said he's 3. He told the man he's going to America. The man asked him how. He told him he's going to fly to America in an airplane. He's so excited to fly in the plane. I wonder if he knows there will be three planes and that it will take us 20+ hours...
Oh my heart! Congratulations Mommy and Daddy -- you have a son! A beautiful son . . . and we're so excited to have a new friend in Eli. He sounds like such a great little person -- and I wonder if he'll like planes after he's on one for what will seem like forever! Cori, You're a natural -- I can see it in these pictures!
