Eli and I have been outide A LOT and also gone to a couple parks. It was so much fun to take him and he had fun on the swings and just playing around! He loves to go on walks in his wagon- so we have also went A LOT of walks!!! The neighborhood is sooo quiet and so nice- we love it! Eli knows where his new room is and he runs around so happy! I am so thankful he is too young to understand this move- or my heart would be competely crushed all together. He has become a "Mamamamamma" boy all the time too! No matter what I am doing with him or if I run to the kitchen for a minute he is riiiight behind me sayin "Mamamama" with his arms up! I absolutely love that to be honest! We just have so much fun together and I laugh at him like I do someone my age... he is my lil hero- I enjoy every second with him every single day! :]
I have looked at Eli lately and really thought "wow... why do you look like you are 2 yrs old already?" He reallllly looks so much older!!!! We attended a church for the first time this past Sunday called "Trinity Fellowship" which is an Assembly of God church and we LOVE it! We are going to continue to go from now on :] Eli really enjoyed the worship songs with us duing the service but once the Pastor started talking he wanted to run around and play instantly... and honestly at 15 mo old- I did not blame him one bit! I had told Noah I did not want to take him to the nursery this time though bc it was our first time and we didn't know anyone- as well as Eli didn't either. SO what does Noah do? He got up with Eli and said he would be right back and comes back WITHOUT ELI! I think my face asked him all the questions needed to be and Noah broke out in a laugh. I asked him why he would do that to me when we don't know anyone and Eli doesn't either and honestly sat there with tears in my eyes. I just KNEW that since Eli did not know anyone in the church nursery he would be one sad boy. And like all Mama's know their babies- I was right. We went to get him after the service and I heard him crying down the hall. The lady said "I think he just wants you guys" and I grabbed him. My heart was crushed and I was soooo very very sad. I know I am a big sappy Mama- but that's just how I will always be. Noah and I did decide though that it will be good for him to be with the kids in the nursery- just not the first day when he didn't know anyone ha. Noah felt bad afterwards and kept sayin sorry... but it was really no big deal after I thought bout it more. Plus Noah is a very very good Daddy anyway- and he was just trying to help out- totally understand. Just set me off at the time being hahaha! I also understood why he took him and that Eli is the age to where he doesn't understand when the Pastor speaks and he deserves to be with kids his age- not to mention- it is good for him. SO from now on we are going to take him with us at first and through worship and then take him to the nursery the last 30 min or so and see if he can adjust better. I figured starting off slowly in the nursery and goin a lil more from there would help him out... and the people really are soooo nice and there are like 20 kids in the nursery, so we have nothing to worry about! We love that he likes to be in worship with us and enjoys it- so we definitely want to keep him with us through that for sure!!!
Anyway- off my story there- sorry my peeps sometimes I just get carried away!!! I am making these posts extra long too b/c it seems I have been busy to make lil posts for each category lately haha so I am playing catch up- and I doooo apologize for that!!!!! All in all- our family is doing good and I am thankful for that so much!!! The fact that the three of us have each other helps out so so so much and has made us all even closer then we even were and it is amazing (I never knew we could be even closer then we were so it makes me smile) :] We have gone out a couple nights as a family for ice cream or something small to do and that has been fun too. We met all of our neighbors and they are very nice! I am also looking into joining a Mom's club where Mom's and their kids meet once a week and do something fun all together. I figure that will be a good deal for me to meet other Mommy's and for Eli to meet other kids too!!! :] Not to mention our pool in our subdivision opens May 23- caaaan't wait for that! So far it is all working out- as long as we keep our minds off being away from family and friends.... OH how we miss everyone so much though and I get terribly sad even thinking about it :/
Sorry for the long novel my friends. :] Here are some pics from the park- check out the one of the flowers on the wood- I kept tellin Eli I could see him and he'd look through the cracks at me and laugh hahaha!
AND also- Lil Peanut is doing good! I should be hearing back from my Dr tomorrow on things- crossing my fingers she lets me come to her :] I should have an appointment here soon and then in less than 3 weeks we will find out what lil Peanut is eeeek can't wait for that!!!! I have already talked with a guy down here to paint Peanut's room and Eli's and he is going to do it for a great price! I am soooo excited and anxious to know what this baby is! <3 Can I also saaaay holy smokes!? Pregnancies fly by sooo fast when you have a lil guy too! I can't believe I am 17.5 weeks already!!!! I have tried keeping up on pics as much as I can too this time around... and I REALLY want to do maternity pics this time with Peanut and have Eli in them too with me! Eeeeek can't wait for that!!!!
