Tuckered Out!

This was one tired boy!

Buddies!

Grace and Eli have so much fun together!

Taking a Break!

Our Sweet Eli =)

Bike!

Here's Grace getting ready to figure out this thing we call a bike! =)

Notice the boots?? I think Grace got so used to wearing them all winter- she just wasn't ready to depart with them! :)

Coloring

Eli loves to color!

(On his face too! If you look closely...you might be able to see the nice marks under his mouth =)

Hello Spring!

We couldn't be happier that spring is here!

Here's Eli having fun on his slide! =)

Hungry?

Helping Daddy? :)

Eli looks all ready to help Daddy get work done on his laptop! =)

Easter!

We had a wonderful day celebrating Easter!

Family came to our house this year. We enjoyed breakfast at church, easter services, and more delicious food at home. Grace and Eli had a great time with their cousins!

Grace & Mommy =)

Eli sporting his first suit =)

(We love hand-me-downs from the cousins!)

Grace loved finding and seeing the goodies in her easter

basket!

Eli searching through his basket :)

After lunch the cousins enjoyed our annual easter egg hunt!

Here's Grace putting an egg in her basket...and not sure whatEli is up to in this picture... =)

Tea Party!

Little Climber

Eli loves to climb and stand up on the kitchen chairs!

Thankfully, he's only tried to climb up on the table itself a few times... :o)

Just Hanging Out

Outside fun!

Seems like we spent so many months trapped indoors because of the freezing cold winter...

It's GREAT to be outside again! :)

Decorating the patio!

Always our Baby :)

I started watching a three month old little girl this week!

We brought down our baby gear from the attic...

Eli as a tiny baby in that swing...

Eli today...

(He managed to climb up in the swing all by himself...

Crazy boy :)
