Oregon

Eli and I just got back from Oregon. It was my moms 50th Birthday, so we drove up and spent a week with the family. The drive took us about 11 hours each way. I am so lucky I have such an awesome little boy, he did soooo good on the drive.
It was really great to be able to spend time with my grandparents, aunts & uncles, and of course, my parents. While we were there Eli got SPOILED, and he loved it!!

We took Eli to the swimming pool where my brother works. Eli was a little hesitant to get in at first but then we couldn't get him to leave!






The weather was so great, we got to take the boat out on the lake one day, we were hoping Eli could go fishing, unfortunately there were no fish biting that day, but it was fun anyway.
Eli got to drive the boat with grandpa.


My cute little man!!


He's so cool!!

Hanging out with Grandma


We found these hockey sticks at a garage sale and my mom got them for Eli. He loved them!! He gave my dad a good workout!!




I tried to get a picture of Eli with my grandparents, of course, Eli couldn't stand still for 2 seconds. So this is the best one I got, as he's running away!!

Thank you to all our family who made our trip a great and memorable experience. We hope we can come and visit again soon, after the new baby is here. We love you all so much.

Happy Easter

We hope you all had a great Easter, we sure had a lot of fun! It all started Saturday morning, when Eli and I had to make a last minute trip to Walmart for some Easter supplies. They had a Bunny there that you could get your kids picture taken with-he was kind of a anorexic scary bunny though. Anyway, Eli thought it was so funny to walk by him and wave but everytime we got too close he panicked, like the bunny was going to get him!! It was so funny! Saturday afternoon we got to have a big Easter Egg Hunt and BBQ with the family. Eli got really excited about the Easter Egg Hunt and kept trying to go outside while all the big kids were hiding the candy. He did good at collecting treats-thats all he wanted to eat the rest of the night. On Sunday the Easter Bunny came and visited our house and brought Eli some new talking alphabet magnets and a new movie. We hid his basket and when he finally found it he said "oooohhhhh, cooooool!" After that he had to pretend he was the Easter Bunny and he hopped around everywhere thinking he was a bunny-lets just say it took us forever to get to church.



CANDY!!


Yea, more Candy!!

Daddy had to help him get the eggs and candy out of the tree.


Happy Easter!!


Had to check out the goods!!


Being silly with aunts and uncles-Great Mustache!!



He finally came down from his sugar high on the drive home.

Ultrasound

I went and got my ultrasound done last Friday. Spencer came with me-it's the one Dr. appt. he agrees to go to. I was so excited to finally see the baby. The Dr. said everything looks healthy and great. The little one weighs 1 lb-it feels like a lot more!! We didn't find out the sex of the baby but Spencer thinks that he surely saw something in the Ultrasound and is positive its a boy, (He's going to have a huge surprise if it turns out to be a girl because ever since we found out we're having another baby he's been SOOO positive its a boy) I guess we'll see in a few more months!
