In honor of my survival of month #1 of the school year, I figured a compilation post highlighting some of Eila’s newest discoveries would be appropriate. She learns something new every day whether we like it or not. Our mobile munchkin exhausts us daily - but there’s no better entertainment in the world!
Recycling:
Eila’s new favorite toys are the recycling can and Zoe’s food dishes.
 |
| Monkey see, monkey do! Me thinks it’s time to give up on pop drinking! |
Mouth Munching:
Eila’s new teeth have her putting absolutely EVERYTHING in her mouth.
 |
| Kid plug #1 |
 |
| Kid plug #2 |
The Hallways:
Whether exploring via parent-mobile, wagon, or pug-power, Eila’s on the move!
 |
| Who’s walking whom? |
Of course, with all this extra exploration, we’re bound to earn some battle scars.
 |
| Doors & Baby heads don't mix well. Youch! Good thing Eila’s gotten good at growing skull. |
Fashion:
When not having her clothes borrowed by her big sister, Eila enjoys picking out momma’s clothes...or at least pulling them out.
 |
| "Does wearing a sleep sack mean I can sleep all day?" |
 |
| It’s blue! Just like my eyes, Mom! |
Smooching:
While she was hanging out in the closet, Eila discovered a new love in her life...herself!
Spinning:
When we absolutely need to know that Eila will be where we last left her - we put her in her baby bouncing pad. The few moments she doesn’t spend feeding her older sister Cheerios from the exer-saucer she spends spinning.
Chewbacca
This discovery was in honor of Eila’s cousin Eli’s
fabulous 6th birthday extravaganza.
 |
| I’m pretty sure these two speak the same language. |
????
And sometimes we just don’t know WHAT ON EARTH Eila’s discovering....
No matter what she’s learning, you can rest-assured that Eila’s getting into mischief somehow. Not to worry, though. Adam is a big believer in tough love. When enough is enough, we simply put our little explorer in structured time-out.
 |
| She’s currently serving a life sentence in our hearts. |
