Wyatt Isaiah Burns was born May 1, 2013 at 10:16pm. Clocking in at 6 lbs. 9 ounces, and 19 1/4″ long. That’s 3 ounces heavier than Eli, and a 1/4 inch longer, for those keeping track at home. The first few days have been wonderful, and Wyatt has adjusted well to the outside world… I […]

Eli’s new car seat came in a box – a fairly decent sized box. What does any kid do with a new box? He makes a fort out of it. Of course, Eli isn’t capable of making forts yet so mom and dad helped him. His new car seat box clubhouse is one of his […]

More Christmas pictures to come soon but… When Eli arrived at Grandpa & Grandma Burns’s house for Christmas, this is the stocking that greeted him. Needless to say, the other children suffered severe fits of jealousy. ** Note to others suffering severe fits of Christmas jealousy… most of that was tissue paper filler. **

In Eli’s small world, his best friend is his kitty Lucy. After the initial excitement of mom and dad coming to get him in the morning passes, he immediately starts looking for his furry little friend. Usually after we get him changed in the morning we take him back to our bathroom, where Lucy is […]

Steph and I love to see the elephants, giraffes and other big animals at the zoo. But those zoo people had their thinking caps on when they also included a petting zoo at the Nashville Zoo – the kids love it! There you can get up close and personal with those rarest of all barnyard […]
