Happy Birthday, Little Man!!

I stole Carrie's idea from MacKenzie's birthday by doing some then and now photos of Eli. I can't believe he is already two. Once we got through the first four months life just flew by. We love you, buddy, more and more everyday! And can't wait to celebrate at your party tonight!! Happy Birthday, Eli!!


Eli's first photo seconds after he was born. He doesn't look real happy to be out of the womb. He wasn't happy about that for almost four months!!

Our first family photo. I look like I am 12 years old!! It's all the swelling!!

This was actually taken the next day by Carrie, but it is such a good picture of his little face. Look how alert he is!

And here he is today! My big boy!

Say cheese!!

The Knoxville Zoo-October 6th

Today, Jeanne and Trevor invited us to the Knoxville Zoo as guests with their membership! Eli and I enjoyed it so much that we are asking Daddy for a membership for our birthdays!! Thanks, again, Jeanne and Trevor!! We had so much fun!!


Checking out the elephants!! Let's "Do the Elephant!!"

This is great! Driving a super cool truck!

Jeanne said the gorillas have never been this close before! We got lucky!!

Milking cows and going down slides in the Kids Cove!!


Taking a break for some grub!!


Being silly in the gift shop!

I Love Spaghetti!






My New Vaccuum!!

Eli got this super cool vaccuum cleaner for $1 at a garage sale last weekend. He loves vaccuming anything in sight and wearing my flip flops while doing it! He is so silly!!

The Fruit & Berry Patch-September 29th

Eli and I joined some friends at the Fruit & Berry Patch last Friday. It was so much fun. They had an apple orchard where you could pick your own apples, a pumpkin patch, a corn maize and a petting zoo. We didn't do the petting zoo because we were getting close to nap times. Eli enjoyed hanging out with his friend Trevor!! Thanks, Jeanne and Trevor, for inviting us!

Going for a stroll!


The boys enjoyed blackberry fruit slushes and apples!

Here they are loving on each other and picking out pumpkins!

Another Boo-Boo!!

Here is a picture of Eli's first real knee scrape. He did this while pushing his lawnmower up the street. It's crazy how easily he bruises!!
