Eli asking for more of Adam's hot chocolate

Eli usually wakes up around 5am to nurse and then I tuck him back in his crib. I got up at 6am to exercise and see Jared off to work. Jacob came out of his bedroom this morning saying, “I got some sleep last night.” The boys watched Diego during breakfast. After breakfast they played with the plastic bowling set. Eli slept in this morning waking around 9:00. Jacob and Adam played with their cars and the road track in their bedroom. Jacob counted all his cars and said he had 116 cars. The boys built a camper truck and a blanket tent. They played webkinz until lunchtime. Jacob wore his glasses down on his nose to show Adam what a Grandma looks like and said, “hi there old deery” in a high pitched voice. Eli woke from his morning nap around 1:30 and ate a late lunch. The boys and I played our own made up game of monopoly. We didn’t play with the money but had to give a high five for landing on a house. We sure had fun playing that. Jacob and Adam had banana’s for their afternoon snack. Before eating them they pretended they were taking to each other on their banana phones. I trimmed the boys fingernails (well Jacob trimmed his own). Eli loves me to trim his nails. Adam doesn’t mind getting his fingernails trimmed but really doesn’t like his toenails trimmed. Whenever I trim his nails he always asks, “Is you gonna trim my toenails?” I tucked Eli in for a nap and the boys watched Diego. Eli didn’t wake up until just after we finished eating dinner. We went outside this evening. Eli was happy in the carrier. Norman had fun running around in the yard. Jacob and Adam did some shoveling but mostly played in the ice/water. They were chopping up the ice with a hoe. Back inside the boys warmed up with hot chocolate. Eli was reaching to beg for some of Adam's drink. Adam shared some with him. He’d stick his finger in the hot chocolate and then in Eli’s mouth. Once Eli bit down on his finger a little and Adam said, "ouch."
