christmas catch-up
We had a fun time visiting family and friends over Christmas this year, and I think we saw pretty much everyone we could have possibly seen. Eli enjoyed his first Christmas and all that goes with is – tearing open presents, eating tissue paper, enjoying bows and ribbons over the toys he received – you […]

the stocking
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. **

christmas tree face
Last weekend we put up our Christmas tree, which was good fun for everyone, including the cat who insists on eating pine needles. Those can’t go down easy… I don’t understand it. Eli loves the Christmas tree as well and “helped” put on an ornament or two. Here it is: Now, we have a nice […]

It was our first real “photo session” since Eli was just a couple weeks old, and the challenges of keeping his attention were entirely different than they were nine months ago. Happy […]

best friends
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 […]

eli’s first halloween
I know, Halloween was over a week ago… I’m catching up here. Something we learned this year: Halloween when you have an infant is basically a holiday where you go around asking strangers for candy in return for showing off your cute kid. I’m not complaining. We paired up with some friends of ours and […]

trip to missouri
A couple weeks ago we took a nice trip to Missouri to visit Steph’s dad and Dee. Eli had a great time and especially enjoyed all the time spent outside. There was a fall party going down in Springfield, complete with a little petting zoo (goats… his favorite, as per previous posts). Here’s a few […]
