Our own little fish

Eli has decided that he loves the bathtub. It hasn't been a fight for a long time to get him to take a bath, however, he can think of quite a few things he would much rather do than take a bath. Until now.

Tonight he gathered all his little cars and started heading for the stairs. When I asked where he was off to, he said "baaath." Just to clarify, I asked if he was going upstairs to play in his room. His answer, quite simply was, "no." So I proceeded to ask if he was going to take a bath. Without missing a beat, he excitedly answered "Yeah!"

He loves playing in the tub with his matchbox cars, especially with Daddy. Daddy is so much better than mom in this arena, but she'll do when dad is busy.

Oh, and on a side note, he has GREAT rhythm. He was clapping along with the song that was playing for the credits in Cars, he was right on beat. Neither Jess nor I were clapping at all. Just him! He's amazing in every possible way. We love him so much!

I totally try to teach Emma rhythm already. I clap to music, I tap her legs, I play the "drums" on her high chair tray, we play the piano together ... this girl is going to be musical. And a dancer, of course. :) I can't wait to see her start clapping in time along with me. I'm sure that was so cute to see Eli doing that. What a fun age.
