  • Video of the day

    Eli and daddy rolling in the grass on what feels like our first day of summer here in Oakland: Oh, ok, here’s a bonus. Eli dances in the car. It’s so awesome.

  • Oh, baby

    Eli woke up a genius today. His dancing alone is amazing. He’s like a young Elvis, and he tries to snap along with the beat when we play the radio in the car. If you ask him where “outside” is, he points to the window and says, “utsuh.” He puts the phone to his ear…

  • Months 12 and 13: progress of the adorable variety

    Just some long overdue pictorial updates from February and March. Eli discovered cabinets (which are now all locked up): Loved his crib and his little sleepytime elephant: Made a freakin’ MESS: Got to turn his seat around like a big boy: Spent many happy hours in the tub: Conked out after a long day at…

  • Eli Talks & Has Water Fight With Himself

    Eli was very talkative last night at the dinner table. It might be hard to see in this video but he has emptied the contents of his sippy cup on himself and his tray. Be sure to keep watching to the end as the last second is the best.

  • Eli turns one!

    And here’s the money shot: Eli had his cake … and his ice cream, too. See all the pictures from the big day here! And check out his newest trick! He got so excited about the inflatable pool we blew up for the party that, well, he just had to stand up (also known as…

  • The Plague

    Not so cute now, is he? It’s interesting. The sickness is something they don’t really tell you about. I mean, it’s kind of out there … “Oh, if he’s in daycare, he’ll get a lot of colds the first year.” But there’s no way to really convey the horror of the Plague Months. For us,…

  • Viva la Mexico!

    We think this picture says it all (sorry, future Eli): Yep, Eli learned to live a lounger’s life last week. We just got back from our first big family vacation, at Club Med Ixtapa Pacific in Ixtapa, Mexico. And can I just say that if you’re traveling with children, you should only go to Club…

  • Babies in Vegas

    That’s right, at just 10 months old, Eli attended his first Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas — although, to be perfectly accurate, he didn’t attend the show, since they don’t let anyone under 16 into the convention center. But he did go to Vegas, and he did, at least, get to visit the parking…

  • Eli is on Twitter!

    We decided that Eli needs to hop on the social networking bandwagon and start Twittering his daily activities. So, he has his own Twitter account and he’ll be posting short blog updates about his activities. Don’t worry, we’ll still blog here with all the pictures and videos, but if you’re just wondering what he’s doing…
