uh-prise

In the last month or so, Eli has really gotten into surprises. He calls them uh-prises. Amy and the kids went shopping to get me something for fathers day a little over a week ago. When they came home, Eli ran into the living room and said "Uh prise, it's a shirt." He doesn't quite have the secret thing down yet.

So, later on, Amy and the kids went with Nana to Chuck E Cheese's. Eli came home with a special cup with a straw and a sucker. He came running into my office and said "uh-prise" and gave me the drink and the half eaten sucker. I took them and said are these for me? He looked at me like I was crazy and said "No, they're Eli's." Then, he took them back. He is one cute handful.
