September 25 & September 26

Hey Monkey!
As I type this, I am drained.  Exhausted.  Tired.  You are taking it out of me, man.  I don't know what is happening but your night time sleep is just not working for us.  You are happy and playful during the day but then, when it is time to go to sleep, you are a fussy pants.  On Friday, we thought it was just because you were overtired because of the football game.  Then, on Saturday, you were screaming in pain twice and you ended up sleeping with me.  On Sunday, it was the same thing.  I don't know if it is teething, food issues, allergy issues, or you have just learned that when you scream hysterically you get to sleep with us.  In any event, it makes for difficult sleep when there is always an Elijah kicking you, taking up the bed or grabbing my hair in an effort to get 1/2 centimeter closer to me.  I hope this works itself back out now that it is Monday & you will be back in Mary's routine.

On Saturday, our family photo shoot was canceled due to rain so we just ran errands.  After nappy time, we went to watch the Huskers play football at the Beaty's house.  You played with Debbie, Morgan and the puppies until you were exhausted!

On Sunday, we hung out in the morning as your daddy was at the Chiefs game.  Gramma Debbie came over to babysit you while I went to Uncle Tyler's graduation ceremony.  Even though you were not there, he did not forget about you - he had a call out to "Baby Eli and Baby Jake."  Afterwards, we went to Great Gramma's for our photo shoot and Gramma Debbie acted as an assistant.  You did a great job for the photos - didn't even pull your hat off.  When I wheeled you around in the wagon, you thought that was pretty darn cool  :)  Then, it was evening, fussy time and trying to get you to sleep time.


Thank you, buddy, for posing so well for the photos.  We really did get some good ones today.  I thought you were free of the camera until Halloween then I remembered that we were doing Brigham family photos next weekend!
