Fun with Eli

That's our baby! :)

Cheese!

I still get her to smile and say "Cheese" every once in a while! :)

Water Fountain Fun!

Grace thinks water fountains are the greatest!

This is one of Grace's favorite things to do...while visiting Daddy at church!

Crazy girl :)

Splash Time!

Eli loves to splash in the water!

Here he is taking a little break for the camera! :)

9 Months!

Our little guy is growing up too fast if you ask me! :)

This was a big month for Eli!

He mastered crawling and can now go everywhere and anywhere he desires!

His new interest is pulling himself up to stand!

He's so curious and just loves making toys out of everything :)

He loves to clap his little hands.

He has four teeth now! (Two front top and two front bottom)

He would rather play than go to sleep! But...he does sleep a nice 8 hrs. at night.

We love our little Eli and thank the Lord for this precious gift!

His 9 month well baby visit isn't until mid Sept...so stats will be posted then!

Siblings!

Grace was taking a little break from swimming in her pool to sit by her baby bro! :)

Time Flies

Can't believe this baby boy of ours is already 9 months old...

Keepin' Cool!

One of the many reasons why we just love summer...

So Big!

Here are some pictures of our sweet baby boy!

Doesn't he look so big now??

"No more pictures please..."

The Fair!

We spent a few hours this afternoon at the county fair!

Our first stop was the petting zoo!

Grace didn't want to get too close to the animals...

Here's one of the nice camels as saw... :)

Eli enjoyed the view from the stroller...

Here's his sweet little baby face...

Grace and Daddy enjoying a "ride."

Grace loved taking on and off the seatbelt...

She enjoyed the tractors too!

Eli...not so much...

Diaper Derby

Eli competed in the "Diaper Derby" at the fair today too! :)

There he is...#17!

All happy and ready to go! :)

Off to a good start!

Ummm....Eli...you're going the wrong way!

And....he didn't get much further than that...

But...he gave it a good try! :)

Hot Summer Day

A great way to cool off on a hot summer day!

The sprinkler doubles as a drinking fountain!

Nice foot Grace! :)

Ahhh...looks refreshing...doesn't it?? :)

On the Move!

Eli started in the living room...

soon he was under the kitchen chair!

How'd you get way over here Eli?? :)

Beach Baby

More Family Fun!

Here are some more pictures from our weekend with family!

Cousins Noelle and KYLE!

The kids had a great time on the slip'n slide!

We had a great weekend with family! My sister Kari and her kiddos came for a visit (We missed you Roby!) Loved spending time with them!

We don't really look related...do we?? :o)
