A post from elliot

forgive my mommy. she has been busy these days. it all started about a month ago when my mommy's cousin had a bad car accident. she dropped us off with our mae mae in louisiana and she went to hicks to help out. she wants you to please remember to pray for kayla. it's going to take her a long time to get better - she is still in the hospital. and since the crash, mommy had been thinking a lot about my uncle chris. that makes mommy sad too. after we spent a whole week with our mae mae we all came home sick - and we were all sick for two long weeks!! that was no fun for mommy at all. i know all that snot, coughing and puke made her tired. but we are better now! for fun now, i've decided i won't take medicine anymore. i just spit it out. i've learned to hold it in my mouth, fooling my mommy and daddy into thinking i've actually swallowed it. nope, ain't gonna happen. i just spit it out at them when they least expect it. they say they are bigger than i am and they can make me take it. they think they are being sneaky by mixing it in with other things. nice try, rents..
mommy has been sewing, sewing, sewing. i don't need burp cloths anymore, but some kids do. :) mommy and daddy are also working on a new cutesy cloths website. she says it will be way better than the one she has now. she's super excited! she has also been working on some new things for cutesy cloths. my sister, brother and i love the new chalk fabric she has! it's super fun to play with. daddy won't let us take her new chalk mats out to eat though. he thinks they are too messy. oh, dad. also, when you get something gift wrapped on cutesy cloths, the new mommy will be getting one of sasha & jackson's mommy's great cards! yea!

oh! cutesy cloths bought mommy a new camera! i've already touched it when i was not supposed to. i don't think i'll do that again. :( she's been busy taking pictures with it. not a lot of us kids, just of those silly burp cloths and things like that. she's still trying to figure out how to use the silly thing though. daddy took this picture when we went to play indoor glow in the dark putt putt for last friday night's game night. i had a lot of fun -- so did daddy taking pictures.

mommy says i've also been a handful....whatever that means. what's wrong with dumping my cereal out on the floor, or escaping out the front door, or climbing over every gate we have? i just want to be independent...but she keeps calling me her baby. i'm no baby, i'll be 2 in three weeks!! mommy can't believe it!

speaking of birthdays, my brother ethan turned 4 in april. we were in louisiana so he did not get to have a party, but mommy says ethan and i will have one together in may. she needs to get the invitations out soon! there's no party like a mcneal party!!

so anyway, cut her a break, will 'ya? she has time management issues. :0
love, elliot
