I'm smitten with this chunky thing.

7 Months Old

3 excited boys - ready to get their Christmas tree

Elijah never has to wonder what he will look like when he grows up.

Last Resort

Doesn't like the Bumbo anymore. Rarely ever sat in the bouncy seat. And the Johnny Jumper lasted about 2 days. This is what it has come to. As long as the diaper box is filled with toys, he is happy.

Bookworm

It is rare to find Joshua without a book in his hands these days. This is what I found this morning.

Cousins make the best friends

We had the best time visiting the family in Georgia a couple weeks ago, but the trip just wasn't long enough. We met sweet Caroline Jean (Cheeks - to her Auntie Lorann) for the first time, and she's really just so pretty and sweet, sweet. We love this girl. I hope that she and Elijah will be great buddies.

The kids' table at Marmee and Papa's. I'm wondering where they're going to fit all 10 of their future grandchildren. (wink, wink.)

We even had a bonfire! Smores and all!

Although, playing with flashlights was more fun than making and even eating smores. I wish this picture was in focus. They were showing me their scary faces.


Cousins DO make the best friends.




And, of course, we had to visit the turtles at Dubbie and DD's house.


Do you know how hard it is to get a good picture of 5 boys?
Thank you, Marmee and Papa, for a FUN trip!
