The Daily Davis: My Sweet Little Boy is Two!

Dear Eli ,

I cannot believe you are already two. It seems like yesterday that God decided to plop you in our lap unexpectedly, 4 weeks early. We are so happy he did, because we have watched you grow into a little boy this past year. You have gone to barely crawling and walking not even a year ago, to running and jumping all over the place. Your personality brightens the room every time you enter, and your smile is soooo contagious. In addition, your became the best big brother ever! You love your little sister so much, and are so excited when she smiles at you and when you can kiss the back of her head. We love you with all of our heart, and even though I want time to slow down, I cannot wait to see how you develop over this next year. You hold a very special place in my heart as my first born son, and I thank God everyday for the blessing that you are. Happy Birthday E-man. You are the best!

My helpful gardener

All of my pumping gear is in "Eli's cupboard". He loves to play hide and seek in there, and recently love playing with "mommy's pump". He is obsessed with marching (from Robin Hood), and therefore used the funnel as a megaphone marching around saying "Horray, Horray". Hysterical!!

Animal crackers at Granny's - the best! We used to get those animal crackers whenever we went over. Guess we have to pass the torch to our kiddos now...
