The only thing happening in the Neale household is Elias. He is getting into EVERYTHING! His new game is to find electronics that are plugged in, so he can pull the cord out of the outlet and plug it back in himself! Yikes! We have had to block all of our outlets!
Elias also is beginning to do everything for himself. This includes feeding himself. This usually isn't a problem until he wants to eat foods like yogurt.
Lastly, even though Elias is almost a year and a half he is yet to sleep through the night in his own bed. Well...the tough love technique started last night. For those of you who are not familiar with this, when Eli wakes up we have to let him cry for 10 minutes. We can then go comfort him without picking him up, and then leave the room. If he cries again we have to let him cry for 15 minutes before going into his room. This continues by adding 5 extra minutes each time he cries... not fun for either of us! So wish us luck as we try to break the family bed habit!

What a ham! I love the picture with Elias in his towel. Good luck with breaking the bad habit of not sleeping in his own bed. Hopefully you and David are able to still get some sleep!
