Update

Okay. So I know I haven't even come close to keeping up with this blog! But, here's what we've been up to lately!

Zoo babies--Aug. 16, 2010

While Oliver was at his first day of school, Eli and I went to the zoo with some friends! In our three-family group of friends, we now have 7 boys and 1 girl! This picture shows the four youngest!

And off he goes...

Eli playing outside--Aug. 15, 2010

Today while Ollie was playing outside, I decided to take Eli out also and see what he thought about crawling on the driveway. He loved it! I think the long pants I put on him helped! He scooted the whole way across and only stopped briefly to figure out the grass at the edge of the driveway!

Eli was pretty proud of himself when he discovered the rubbermaid drawer!

My crawling boy--Aug. 13, 2010

Eli has been "crawling" for the last few weeks! He basically scoots with one leg tucked up under him, but it gets him where he wants to go!

Eli and Baxter--Aug. 10, 2010

Eli and Baxter are really starting to love each other! They both like to sit and stare out the window!
