Eli’s 1st birthday!

It’s hard to believe that Eli is already 1.  He’s such a fun kid.  He loves to get silly and loves to snuggle.  He is so easy going and doesn’t complain too long about anything.  He’s also pretty close to walking and has a handful of words:  shoe, flower, airplane, bath.  A few others too.

We had a fun party for him in our backyard last month.  The weather was perfect!

Singing the standards

 

Eli seemed to enjoy himself throughout

I think Jordan had fun too!

We love Eli more and more every day.  What a fun kid!

Fall 2014

Every time I start putting together pictures of the kids, I realize how quickly they grow and change each month.  These photos and videos go back to September, around my birthday and around the Jewish holidays, leading up to Eli’s first birthday in mid October (those will be in the next post).  Eli especially seems so much older than he does here now, but I don’t want to miss posting some great ones here.

School is back in session:

Even Eli started classes this year:  Mommy and me, and Music class

When Jordan is not assaulting Eli, they have a blast playing together now
