To all our loyal viewers out there...

It's hard to tell, but this is German's "Freight Train" that he recreated from a book of the same title. He loves this book; it's also the first book that he 'reads' to other people- so cute!


Eli loves food!!! Last night he ate one and a half baby food containers, then he had a round of rice cereal and then he still wanted to be nursed. I'm shocked this kid is still on the small side.

Sorry it's taken me nearly three weeks to update our blog. Life keeps handing us one technical difficulty after another! (First our memory card and now our internet connection - oh well!) There really isn't that much to tell, or maybe it just seems that way to me because I'm living it everyday, but life is good and we are enjoying it. We go swimming everyday and are getting really tan, despite our sunscreen efforts (thanks to mom for the beautiful skin!). German has gotten really brave and jumps in all the time. His favorite time in the water is when our friend Madison comes and pushes him around in a tube! Eli is also a little water bug, but he prefers to nap at the pool!

Both the boys are growing up so fast! German has officially graduated to a normal chair and Eli has taken over the baby/toddler chair. It's fun to eat dinner with both our boys there, but mostly it's fun to eat dinner with both my hands free! German continues to talk up a storm and use his imagination all of the time. He loves to pretend cook and go to work or the dam (the Hoover Dam that is!). Eli is always ready to laugh and smile at anyone! He is somewhat of a momma's boy whenever anyone else wants to hold him though. He's eating like a champ and enjoys being able to sit up so he can see everything.



Joshua and I are just fine, nothing really new to report! We've cooled down our house search and now we're just waiting until we feel like it's the right time again. We are thoroughly enjoying our time as a family and say to one another very frequently how much we love our boys and spending time together. We have a lot of joy!

We have that same book. That is so cute that he built his own train. Your boys are both so adorable!

Madison loved Germans train!! As soon as she got home after borrowing the syrup she said, “German has the coolest train ALL OVER his house”. Soon after that she wanted to call to see if German wanted to play. Thanks again she had tons of fun. She loves playing with German at the pool also.
