PJ Day!!

Tuesday was pj day at Eli's Mom's Day Out (a.k.a. school). He didn't have any that were appropriate or long enough for school, so I took him to Target and let him pick out a new pair. Wouldn't you know it...he picked out Cars pj's!! I bought him a little boys XS. He is so big!! He even wore his light-up dinosaur slippers!!

Fantasy of Trees

Yesterday, Eli, Jenny and I joined Trevor, Sydney and Jeanne at the Fantasy of Trees! We had never been before and it was a lot of fun! Here are some pictures of the day!

Yes, we saw Santa! Eli wanted to sit on his lap because the other kids did. Doesn't Jenny look thrilled!!?









This is where the boys stayed most of the time. It was a really small area for all of those cars but they had a blast. We had a minor meltdown when it was time to go and leave the cars.

There was no way Jeanne and I were going on this ride. Thankfully, they were allowed to ride by themselves!! They actually did a really good job spinning the cars. And, they had a ball!


The mamas and the babies!!

Slacker

I know, I know! I've been slacking lately on the blog. I have been overcome by Facebook and haven't paid any attention to the blog. So, I'm catching up. And then I realized I haven't taken many pictures. Slacker!! So, here's what I have.

Jenny's starting to outgrow this stroller!!
Going in for some kisses!
The cousins came for a visit two weekends ago and we tried to get a picture with all of them! Here are our tries!Trevor came over to hang out yesterday and Eli quickly wanted to go outside. Trevor doesn't drive the "motorcycle" as well as Eli so he decided to just ride on the back with Eli. Definitely a Kodak moment!

Crazy Kids!


Bathing beauty!
Jenny is starting to sit up more by herself and she was doing such a good job this morning! Here she is with Eli having some morning cuddle time!
Or maybe that was morning "smother" time!!

And she toppled over!
Silly big brother!

Check out Eli's new haircut! What do you think!! He looks so grown-up!!

Halloween 2008

Well, we had a very fun Halloween! Our original plan was to trick-or-treat in our neighborhood and, since all our friends already had plans, that is what we ended up doing! Eli had so much fun! Jenny did great! She hung out for a bit in the stroller and then, after one of the individuals passing out candy scared her, in my arms.

Here is our fireman and cowgirl!! Aren't they cute!!


Going up to the first house!!
This one is fitting, don't you think???
Check out that loot!!

Jenny didn't last too long. After her bedtime feeding (in someone's yard) it didn't take her long to pass out in my arms. That is how she stayed until we came home and laid her down about an hour later. So sweet!! Eli got a couple of pieces of candy before heading off to bed where he quickly fell asleep!! He was beat!!

Our little man is now 4 years old. I can't believe how big he is getting. He had his well visit yesterday and he is 80% for weight and 84% for height. HOLY COW!!! The doctor said at this age it is genetics that makes him as tall as he is. Well, for those of you that know John and I, you know we are not at all tall. Maybe he has gotten the gene that my cousin Jason got who is a whole lot taller than his parents! John is hoping for that!! We had Eli's birthday party last Saturday and it was so much fun!! I will post pictures as soon as I get them from my sister. She is the photographer for all family events!! In the meantime, check out her blog. She posted pictures from the party!!

Hope everyone had a fun Halloween and got lots of candy to enjoy!!
