Eli is so cute. Stewart went rabbit hunting with my brothers on Saturday and so Eli and I were home alone. After breakfast Eli said, "I think that we should clean up this messy house." So we cleaned his room and the front room and managed to find homes for all his new toys. He helped vacuum and everything! After that I suggested that we take down the Christmas Tree. I thought that I would get some really heavy arguments but Eli said, "yeah cuz Christmas is over." So he helped me put Christmas away. He's such a sweet boy and really good helper.
After we were done we went to the store and I let him choose a treat for being such a helper. He choose some "Bubble Tape" which happens to come in a pink container. On the way out to the car he said, "pink is a boy color now. Boys like pink." I think that he was making himself feel better about choosing pink candy.

And pink IS the new black. Apparently.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little boy you have Becca. If I have to live without my husband for the next year or so, I'm glad I have my own little boy.
ReplyDeleteEli is such a doll. I love it that he's helping you clean up. That's a good thing for a child to learn and the earlier the better. Now if you could just teach him to fold my blanket throws before he leaves! LOL Why does he love those?
ReplyDeleteMom you are asking for way too much! He has tried folding blankets but it causes major upset and frustration. It's too hard and not worth the drama. I'll fold them next time. :)
ReplyDeleteI need to reeducate that kid - boys do NOT like pink - unless it's a dress/bow/hat/shoe/shirt/etc. on a cute girl.
