Elijah turns 1

I can't believe it, my little guy is turning 1 year old tomorrow. We have invited the family for pizza, cake and ice cream. We also have the boys soccer games in the morning. It's going to be a busy day.

House full of Germs

We have caught the stomach flu for the second time this year. Eli came down with it first, so I think he must have got it from a shopping cart, since we have not been around any family or friends who were sick. Adam is the only one who has not thrown up, yet. It is running slowly through the family. I am hoping that it is over quickly. This season has been the worst for us. It seems like we have caught everything one by one.

Elijah's tumble

Scott, Elijah and I had a picnic lunch outside on our patio yesterday. We got the table and chairs out of the shed and enjoyed the nice weather. We were having a great time until Eli decided to turn around and stand up on his chair. Those little plastic chairs fall over so easily and he went down so fast that I couldn't catch him. He fell face first into the cement patio. You can't tell in this picture, but there is a big long bruise on the left side of his forehead and along with his entire nose scrapped up, he also cut his bottom lip. He is such a little trooper, though. He cried more from the ice pack I was trying to hold on his head than he did the actual fall. Of course, by the time I got him cleaned up, Izzy had eaten our PB&J Sandwiches off the small table outside. It was fun while it lasted.
