The Elsons: November 2012
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. November was an interesting month. Caleb's immune system was very high at the beginning of the month, then took a nose-dive right away. He spent the last 13 days of the month at the hospital due to a fever. We enjoyed the time we had together at home by having our usual Saturday morning pancake breakfast. But it wasn't always a winner. Auntie Erin came home to visit and enjoyed some snuggle time with Baker and Eli at the Airport Cafe. Baker loved spending Tuesday, Wednesday, an...

The Elsons: In the hospital again...
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013/10/in-hospital-again.html
Saturday, October 19, 2013. In the hospital again. I had to bring Caleb into the hospital because he had a fever. While in, Amy and I were texting, and I sent her a text with an "angry" emoticon. Caleb saw the emoticon, and out of the blue, says:. Caleb: sometimes I get angry with Baker. Caleb: That she wins. Sometimes I get mad and I cry when she wins. I'm sure one of the kids will get some variation of this when they get their own car! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Name: Josh and Amy.

The Elsons: May 2013
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 23, 2013. Baker and Caleb sayings. Who's your tooth fairy? This is a recurring comment.). Caleb on going to Costco: I want to go in wit you. Amy: nope, I'm just going to go in real quick. Caleb: but my platelets are high. I can go in cause my platelets are high. This kid has learned way too much through his treatment! Baker when being asked about the movie Oklahoma. And the bad man died. I think that should be a consequence because he got mad at the cowboy and set his hay on fire. Eli got h...

The Elsons: January 2013
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 31, 2013. I'm gonna 'git you! Now that Eli has mastered the art of pulling himself up to a standing position, he's found one of his favorite places to stand is behind Caleb's chair at the dinner table. Caleb is rarely pleased with this development. Caleb is convinced Eli is up to something sinister when he pulls himself up on his chair. He usually ends up yelling at Eli. Eli has been such a good eater. He eats solid foods like a champ! We have learned to roll up his left sleeve, as this...

The Elsons: Way to stick to your guns!
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013/09/way-to-stick-to-your-guns.html
Wednesday, September 25, 2013. Way to stick to your guns! Usually, our kids aren't this accommodating. At bedtime tonight, Caleb really wanted to go up on Baker's bunk:. Caleb: Baker, can I come up into your bunkbed, because I really like you. Baker: ummm, no. Caleb: but I really want to. Baker: ok, I guess so. Maybe it was because he sweet talked her? I know this gets Amy and me nowhere with the kids… Although, Amy has learned to bring out the sweetums! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Elsons: July 2013
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 27, 2013. Queasy stomachs need not apply. We had a lovely conversation over dinner tonight…. Baker said: I think next I'll discover what fish eyes feel like. Josh: What a fun dinner conversation. Baker: Is it making you hungry? Josh: It's making me sick. For some reason, our kids LOVE eyeballs. They love to say "stinky eyeballs" at random times. It completely cracks them up. Now, Baker wants to feel eyeballs… what's a parent to do? Thursday, July 25, 2013. Jellyfish, Jellyfish, Jellyfish.

The Elsons: Boo at the Zoo
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013/10/boo-at-zoo.html
Wednesday, October 30, 2013. Boo at the Zoo. Today is Boo at the Zoo. It's a special function the Sacramento Zoo has where they set up "candy" booths all over the zoo. The kids get dressed up in their costumes, and get to go trick or treating. Our neighbors across the street have an in, so we get invited to all kinds of fun zoo activities. As we were leaving our house to go up there, Caleb, who was dressed up as a leopard, asks me:. Caleb: Do you take animal passengers? He's just the cutest!

The Elsons: September 2013
http://theelsons.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 28, 2013. First a little humor:. Caleb made this statement today: "I like homo depot". Now a little more humor for everyone else… and a story that probably shaved a year off of my life from frustration:. Amy was gone for the afternoon, and left me in charge of the kids. I apparently overestimated their ability to be left alone inside. So spent an hour or so outside working on the playhouse, and when I came inside to check on them, I found the following. Wednesday, September 25, 2013.
