Road Trip

Eli and I just got back from a short weekend trip to Utah. He slept the entire time down, but the trip back today wasn't as smooth. He cried off and on a lot. Finally, I decided we should stop at a gas station to fill up, change his bum, and let him burn some energy. 

I found him like this:

Oh Eli... wear your seatbelt.

Love love love

When in California, we were able to attend Laleinia and Alastair's wedding. Laleinia was one of my best friends in high school, so it was so fun to be able to see her so happy. She was a GLOWING, beautiful bride!

 A week later, we were able to go down for Craig's sister's wedding. She,too, looked STUNNING! I didn't get very many pictures because Eli was so busy chatting and clapping during the whole ceremony, but it really was beautiful. We are so happy for Kristina, James and Keaton--they make a pretty cute family. :)

 (I know what you are thinking....this is the best picture you have? yes. yes,in all of it's blurry glory, it is.)

The next sequence of pictures is Eli with his Grandpa Fisher who all the grandkids adore.... enjoy. 

love, Love, LOVE! :)

Chores, chores, chores...

Since Eli had started to move around, he's become much more 'helpful' around the house. 

He's always making sure the trash cans are empty...

He cleans out the "puffs" container...

Helps dad with the handy-man jobs around the house that need to be done...

Last, but not least, he helps mama with the laundry.  

Teach them while they're young, right?
