Eli's monthly pictures with his number sticker have become increasingly harder.
Which means they have also become more fun.....even if it is because he is getting a bit mischievous. I love the idea of having a wild, active, mischievous little boy.
Remind me I said that in a couple of years.
This past Saturday morning after Eli's bath I remembered I had remembered I had never taken his ten month pictures. It got lost in the post-holiday madness so I decided that it was the perfect time.
I have mentioned before that our laid back, sweet baby has become more and more rowdy. He throws fits when he doesn't get his way, he is very particular about who touches him and who doesn't and he is LOUD. Like screams at the top of his lungs all the time.
He is seriously so fun, but I have a feeling when he starts walking (running?) I am going to be one worn out momma!
Back to the pictures:
At first Eli was all about being the center of attention (not like he ever isn't the center of attention) but you can tell his hands are already on the sticker ready to rip it off:
Got it off!
Victory!
Seeing my desperate attempts to get a good picture with the "10" sticker on Eli (HELLO birthday party!!!) Luke decided to put the sticker back on Eli and hold his hands so I could get a picture (which really makes no sense because I do not want a man who just woke up in my precious baby's 10 month picture but it was the thought that counts).
Please note Eli's face below. He did not want to be touched. He wanted his sticker in his hands. He was full on SCREAMING in this picture.
So dad let go of him.....and he's happy again!
So then Luke decided to put him on his lap to achieve the perfect picture....again it's the thought that counts:
I'm pretty sure Eli hated his life at this moment
Life is definitely fun, exciting, and hysterical around here!
I love that you nursery stickered him:)!
ReplyDeleteWonder he'd do if you let him hold an old sticker...
Eli is such a cutie. Im sure he will have many little boy adventures in his future.
ReplyDeleteI've had to give Finn the sticker from the previous month to get him to keep his hands off that month's sticker! Tomorrow is month #10...we'll see if that technique still works...crazy boys :)
ReplyDeleteI laughed so loud over the picture with the sticker on Eli's back! Too funny!
ReplyDeleteYou are SO in for such a fun, crazy, boy-filled future! From another mom of two boys - cherish every moment! I know you will!
This made me laugh out loud! I'm guessing his next couple of month pictures will look the same. Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThe picture of him backwards is kinda cute!!
ReplyDeleteDid you stick it on after he was in the onesie? Maybe if you applied the sticker while he's naked and then put the whole thing on at once... it would fake him out for a minute or two? Might be worth a try next month.
What a sweet boy, I love seeing how animated he is now!
He is sooo cute!! That last picture made me laugh out loud. Happy 10 months to one precious little guy!
ReplyDeleteI think this is my favorite post ever on your blog. Well there are some other funny ones too (toenail issues) but this made my morning!!!
ReplyDeleteThese picture are seriously the best. Love the ones of Luke holding him down.
ReplyDeleteMust say this just gets me even more excited to have a boy.
Seriously, this post had me dying laughing!!! I love the sticker on his back, too stinkin' funny!
ReplyDeleteHe is so cute and growing so fast!
This made me literally laugh out loud. What a silly little boy!
ReplyDeleteHaha! That last pic made me laugh out loud! Smart thinking Mom and Dad.
ReplyDeleteMy baby turned 10 months last weekend and I still haven't gotten the pictures with the sticker because I don't have the energy..ha! Maybe this week! And the walking thing...you will be exhausted! Kason walks 95% of the time now and I chase him 100% of the time! Shoo! Exhausting but SO FUN! :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha! So cute! I love how that captures his personality so well! :)
ReplyDeleteMegan, I've never commented before, but have been reading for a few weeks. I love your humor in your posts! My little guy is about a month behind Eli so i can completely relate to the monthly picture woes. But....I'm pretty sure your hubby's efforts take the cake in this one for me. How thoughtful yet totally unhelpful for your "vision." I love it...so hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures cracked me up!! He is soooo stinking cute!!
ReplyDeletehaha, that last picture cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe how time flies!
SUCH a cute little man!
These pictures are hilarious!! Crack.me.up! I was laughing out loud - too precious!!
ReplyDeletehaha he is hilarious! I love it!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteHilarious!!!! I have a feeling that this is what Cooper's will look like also in upcoming months!
ReplyDeleteOh little Eli! You're a wild man :)
ReplyDeleteOk, you are seriously one inventive Momma and Eli definitely knows what he wants and doesn't want! How funny :)
ReplyDeleteGAH he is so cute!! those leg rolls are so adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteOh man he is so cute!!! And this gave me the fever. a little bit... great...
