Fishing Anyone???

Eli got his first fly-fishing lesson the other day. Of course, his daddy is the best fly-fishermen that he knows, so he was a great teacher. Eli actually got the fishing pole and tried to fish..but i didn't get that cute moment on the camera! :)

Going fishing with DaddyDaddy can I pull these things off of your vest?

No Mama...I don't want to take a picture with you right now!!!

Thank you Evan for holding Eli back from jumping in the water! :)

Brushing our hair....for the first time

Eli has a taken awhile to grow hair on his head. He is now 21 months old and we "brushed" his hair for the first time the other day. He just laughed and wanted to do it himself. ..Such a silly boy.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day
I love you! Love Eli

An old, funny video

This is a video of Eli, Molly and Madelyn playing in the hallway. I have watched it 50 times and laughed so hard at Madelyn's comments. I have a feeling that this is what Eli is going to live with having so many girl cousins!

Eli's World

Here are a couple of pictures from Eli's world. I realized as I was composing this post that I haven't taken many pictures lately! (I lost my camera for about a month) Enjoy! Say cheese! Eli and Baxter enjoying a ride in the wagon. (It was impossible to get both of them to turn and look and then smile at me!)Jasper and Eli playing in the driveway. They love to play around the basketball goal, which you notice is not standing up. Jasper acts like it's a fire pole.This is one of my most favorite pictures of these two little guys. Jasper is showing Eli where his name is on the truck. If you zoom in on the picture, Jasper's little finger is right under the word "Jasper, Ga." As he was doing it he said, "Look Baby Eli, this is my name....Jasper"Playing with mommy and her new blanket!Looking handsome! Cutie pies! :)

Jenny- please forgive me. I know this is the worst cake in the world. I attempted to make a 2-layered cake for Daniel's birthday, but as you can see it didn't work out. (I think it was the fact that I made it after working all day long...and I was tired and got very eager about taking it out of the pan too early.) This picture was taken before we took a bite out of it. Thank goodness he still loves me dispute my 2-layer cake handicap.

Eli Update

Eli has turned into such a big boy! He is doing all kind of fun things and learning to say all kind of words! Here are a couple of cute pictures!! Riding his new tractor all loaded up with his friends!! ( I was trying to get a picture with the bunny ears on his head, but he just wouldn't have it!)

Playing in the snow with his buddy Jasper

They get so excited when they see each other and Jasper still calls Eli, "Baby Eli."

Daniel was taking pictures while I was videoing the snow fun, itsn't this a great picture! Such a sweet boy!

Every red plaid shirt must have a good hat to go with it, right?

Eli LOVES to make this face when I get the camera out!

Everybody needs a good pyrex dish to sit in.

Christmas Photo Session

Merry Christmas from Eli
