HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, ELI!:)

Eli's birthday celebration was last Saturday. I had a pool party all planned...and then it was cold and rainy. So, the venue changed but we still had a great time!!:) Eli was spoiled with lots of love & affection & some wonderful gifts. We are so blessed! My favorite party moment was Eliot sporting his cake goatee (3rd photo down). He keeps us on our toes & we are having such a blast raising him! Eli is walking really well & almost running (wants to keep up with his big sis!) He has been fondly nick named "T-Rex" (he kinda walks like one) & "the crusher" (this title needs no explanation). He has 7 teeth with 1 more ready to break through. He is babbling up a storm & is so excited about most everything (except when you wipe up his nose & he has a cold right now so this is not so fun for mommy). We see him change & grow on a daily basis & fall in love with our little mister over & over! Tomorrow is his 1 year check up so it will be interesting to see how big he is (he eats like a horse!)
