family fun

Some fun family pics -= )

Chillaxin' with Eli

Here are some fun pics that I have taken over the past few weeks!

Watching super why on the couch- the milk jug is empty, I promise! We put some rice in it and he loved it!

Kortni and Katie came to visit!

Waiting at the dr for his 18 month check up! He's 25 lbs!!!

Relaxing in his backyard

Cutie pie

morning walk

Mom, quit taking pictures and let's go!!

I love dirt!

Pumpkin Patch!

We took Eli to the pumpkin patch last week and it was soo fun! However, we knew that there would not be very good pics of him SITTING STILL with a pumpkin. He kept trying to pick the pumpkins up and throw them! It was a great time though!

Scoping the place out

We tried putting all the pumpkins around him , so that he would stay still for just a second for a picture! If only he would look at the camera!

Looking at a pumpkin that I was holding

He chose this pumpkin to take home...minutes later he threw it, so we chose another = )

Mommy is helping to hold this pumpkin = )

It's been awhile.....again !

It's been 3 months since my last post!!! I feel like a blogging failure! Even though there should be no excuses, I have lost my camera battery charger and am anxiously awaiting the new one to come in the mail! Eli has been one busy bee- he has started with Mrs. Paula again, he can walk up stairs by himself, he is getting his molars in ( so not fun for me and Jake), he can even go down the slide by himself! Next week, he will be 18 months old! Time flies!

My boys

Our summer so far

We sure have been busy this summer! These are a few of the things that we've done:

wagon rides

hangin' out with grandpas and grandmas

trying to figure out Uncle Mark

still trying to figure him out...

Eli enjoyed his serenade from his uncle

played with lids

played with toys, too

had a first date with Miss Katie

more wagon rides

can't forget the swing

and play dates galore!!!

So sweet !

Eli went to his friend, Michael's birthday party. Here is a cute pic of Eli and one of his friends!

Fun in the sun at the splash pad!

This summer has been so much fun! I left my camera in Victoria, so I haven't been taking too many pictures. Luckily, a friend took some great shots of Eli on our trip to the splash pad! Eli had so much fun!

He LOVED the soccer ball- thanks James and Sarah!

Look at that smile!

The boys playing soccer.

He saw James there!

This is a picture of him right when we got there. He did not want to get near the water.
