Daddy and Son Day....





Last night we took Eli over to our neighbor's house for a party, and of course everyone admired him and loved how calm and alert he was the whole time! The River Festival started here yesterday, so while Eli slept we sat outside and listened to the opening concert, which was Colbie Caillat (sings Bubbly). We live right by downtown, so we can always hear when there is a really big concert during River Fest. We went and cheered for our friends/family who ran the 10 k race today (that's my cousin Ellen Mitchell in the picture). Later, Brandon watched Eli for a couple hours while I went to my best friend's graduation from Friends. It seems like just yesterday that I graduated! Brandon took Eli to the Indian Center by our house for some River Fest fun. They enjoyed some Plains Indian dancing. I came home to a happy baby and some beautiful flowers, which Brandon claims was Eli's idea. Tomorrow after church we're going to spend some time at the festival and go to the art/book/craft fair, listen to some music, and Brandon's determined to eat a turkey leg :-) Eli has just been "talking" like crazy. Every day it's something new. We swear today he said "da da" and "Mom"....I know it's highly suspect. He really does copy the sounds we make though.
