Home!





We are home from Plano, TX after visiting with Brandon's family. We had a great trip and enjoyed the break! The trip down to Texas was great. Eli was awake playing for half of the trip and slept the other half. The way home was a different story. He was awake for a while and then just started whining. We stopped, but it just got worse. Finally he went to sleep and we had peace for the rest of the trip. In Plano, we got to visit with his grandparents again and see our new nephew...oh wait...well it's actually a pot bellied pig, but he was fun too! Brandon's brother Paul got a pot bellied pig named Dudley who was the star of the weekend. We enjoyed playing with him (he learned to "sit" while we were there) and laughed/joked a lot about him. Eli loved seeing everyone. He gave lots of kisses to his Grams! Eli went "swimming" in their hot tub (they put him in before it heated up). He loved it! He just loves water in general. He splashed and played forever. Sunday, we went to our nephew Gavin's 3rd birthday party. They rented a place that is full of blow up jumping toys/slides. All the kids had a blast. Eli liked jumping, but was indifferent about the slides. It was Eli's first birthday party, and he has another one for his friend Ethan this weekend. We had some more professional pictures taken of Eli while we were there. They turned out SO cute! I'm going to scan them today and I'll put them up here ASAP. I loaded up on organic produce at Whole Foods, so Brandon and I started making some of it today. The only new foods I got for him are papaya and pumpkin. I'm going to post a lot of pictures from our trip!
