It was a good month! Eli was a shark for Halloween, we went to Boo at the Zoo, and we had a great vacation in Kauai, Hawaii. I think I pretty much covered the highlights already, so we’ll just skim on past and get onto Eli’s update.

Eli: 22 Months










I say new words like… diaper, ewwwww, mango, everybody, penguin, chicken, grandma, naughty, Optimus, good boy, button, buckle, pickle, pizza, sorry
My favorite food is pickles
My favorite toy is my penguin or my raccoon. I pet my penguin’s head while I go to sleep. I also like to feed penguin with my sippy cup and put him in diapers
Some other things I do include…saying my first string of three words (“Where are you?”), buckling seatbelts, calling people ‘babies’ and most animals ‘meow’ (cat), making grandma and Papa hold hands, and going on my first 5 hour plane to Hawaii where I threw a train at a sleeping woman’s head. While in Hawaii, I realized I hate the ocean. I was very scared and would only go into it if Papa or daddy was holding me. I love dancing to Hawaiian music, and I tried to prove this point by trying to go on stage during the luau. I have a great memory, and can remember where I put anything. Mom will ask me to get my shoes, or find my penguin and I’m on it.
Memorable Moment for Mom was: when, while in Hawaii, I put on Papa’s hat and walked out the front door to go on a walk by myself. Or- when I discovered boogers. I picked my nose and saw it on my finger and said ewwww and tried to give it to mom. Mom didn’t want it so I put it back in my nose.
A Memorable Moment for Dad was: when we were driving to a tour and I started crying only to stop intermittently and ask sweetly for juice. Also, when we went on a train ride and I decided I did not like the goats at the stop and demanded to get back on the train.
A Memorable Moment for Grandma was: when I recognized the train from afar and pointed it out, disgustingly looking at the Coco Palms Resort saying "Oh no! Broken!", and asking for anyone's hand to go on the walking paths in the airport. I also escaped out of the pool and ran as fast as I could towards Kiki, the concierge, and her tour group while grandma tried to catch me.
A Memorable Moment for Papa was: watching everyone try to catch me before I reached the door, elevator, stairs, pool, street, stores, knives, glass pans (failed!), and washing machine. I also looked for the lizard every morning in the condo and stood in the middle of the crowd at the Coco Palms, laughing and clapping at the tour guide.
Have a fantastic Thanksgiving!
