pumpkin patch time

so many pumpkins... & ocean in the view

here dad, let me help you with this wagon. :)

didn't like this so much. ;)

eli in the grass

sick bunny

Eli has not been feeling so great the past few days and so we've been cooped up inside for the most part trying to make do. A few things that do make him feel better (besides being held by mom ALL the time, sheesh!) are...

playing outside for a bit, in the front yard.

Bubble Baths!

we'll take a few throughout the day, if necessary. and as my mom would say, 'you can totally see how he isn't feeling well, just look at his eyes.' :(

And when things get really bad, we will watch this episode from 'Classical Baby' a few times, it's Eli's favorite.

What do you do when your little one is under the weather? I'd really love to know, truly.

a little bit of life lately...

beaver teeth! ;)

trucks and blocks

what's with this face?

I often find these two snuggled together, sleeping in Eli's laundry basket in the closet...not sure what happened to June here, he looks as if he lost his eye and half his arms in the war... haha!

scott and eli welcoming back the monarch butterflies at the beautiful natural bridges

beautiful lone butterfly, there were swarms of butterflies up in the tree tops and sometimes they would all fly around at once, it was so magical!

AND...Eli got his first hair-cut! He cried the whole time, poor buddy! But it looks cute and he still has his curls, yippee!!!

crying and eating. hahaha!

much happier at home playing the cupboards, looking like a big boy!

vintage

Hi! Here are a couple quick shots of Eli in some vintage clothes. These were Scott's clothes when he was a little guy and his mom was awesome enough to keep some things and pass them along to Eli. Some of you may remember the shoes he was wearing on his birthday, those were also Scott's and sadly Eli has already grown out of them, but we have these cool shorts and overalls to wear still. :)
