Eli has been really into these little "Football Guys" that we have from Kaskey Kids. He reenacts what he sees and hears from the games over the weekend. Steve and I have been amazed at how much of the game he actually follows. Frequently during the game he will yell out, "Oh! He fumbled!!" or when they kick a field goal he says, "Is it 'yes good'?.... It is!" All of this football knowledge then turns around into pretend play with his little football guys.
This morning he came into my room with one of these guys and asked if it was "Number 81". I looked at the number and said, "No, he is number 18. See the 1 comes first that makes it 18." He looked at it for a minute and then said, "No. This is 81. See the difference?"

If he's a numbers guy AND a football guy, he'll be a force to be reckoned with on the field! Brains + brawn sound like a winning combo to me. :)
