Apparently, Eli is going through another "stage."

He is a terror! We are not sure if it is just the 2 gong on 3 stage, or if this is just "Eli". By the time I got home last night, Ben said, "Eli is by far the most frustrating of all kids at any stage!" We are just having a heck of a time with him. It is so hard to explain, but he is just so defiant. He does things that he knows he shouldn't do. For example, yesterday he had chapstick. Ben asked what he was doing and he said, "just eating it." Sure enough, right after that, he took a bite out of it. He knows not to eat chapstick. It seems like we should be past this stage!

The other problem with this is that it is so hard to be mad at him. He talks so well and says the cutest things. He makes faces that just crack us up and it is so hard to get mad and not just laugh at him. He has just been so expressive lately and has quite the personality. We are hoping this naughty stuff is just a stage he is going through as we adjust to having Ben back now that wrestling is over.

We have 7 weeks until Baby is here.....we could be in for a wild ride!
