Eliott had a lot of fun playing outside at the cabin this past weekend! Here he is playing ball with Daddy. He has added some words to his vocabulary in the past week. He can say ball, Mali (Athman's dog!), bye-bye, and thank-you. It's pretty cute listening to him try to say all kinds of new things!
Here he is "throwing" the ball to Daddy. How he throws is he pushes the ball away from him, along with a little grunt!
Playing peek-a-boo under the fence...
...and over the fence!
Tasting...I mean 'smelling' the flowers!

Happy Birthday, Great-Grandpa!


After Eliott's haircut we went over to great-grandpa's birthday party. He loved the ride on the 4-wheeler!
Here he is with Grandpa...
...and here are him and Wesley with the Great's! Happy Birthday!

First 'real' cut!


Before we took Eli in for his haircut we gave him a bath in Grandma's veggie sink. Do you think he needs a little buzz?!?
It was a little small, but he had lots of fun in there! He could turn the water on and off, and spin the faucet so water went all over the counter! It was kind of a mess by the time we were done!
Here he is sitting so nice for Auntie Kim. She put him right up on the counter so he could see what was going on.
This was his first 'real' haircut. Auntie Kim and Auntie Jess have both trimmed it up a little to get rid of the 'mullet' going over his ears. This time she got out the clipper and buzzed it up the back!
It turned out SOOO cute! He looks like a little man now!

Some Fun Pics!


Athman's brought over a new John Deere tractor for Eli for his "real" birthday....This is how excited he was about it!!!!

Here he is looking out the cabin door at the rainy day.
In his "big boy" carseat with one of his favorite toys-a book!

He used to think he was pretty smart sitting in the cart...now he thinks he needs to help push!!!

Our Baby Boy is 1!!!




It's already been a whole year?!? Wow!!!! Time goes so fast! What a blessing the year has been, watching Eli change and grow. He went from a fragile little infant into a rough and tough little boy! We spent the weekend talking about, "...a year ago at this time...." remembering all the little details about the wonderful day he was born. We had no idea what to expect at the time! Now he is walking around things, pushing things, crawling into EVERYTHING, exploring, eating, riding, ....!!!! He is always on the go, keeping us on our toes! What a joy he brings to us!

Just a little closer!
Oh, I'd love a drink of this water!
