Eli turns 3 mo.!

Oh how we love our little Eli!

Takoda is doing much better these past couple of weeks of being more loving towards him, rather than saying "mommy look at me, i'm hitting Eli"...

Eli's eyes are still blue, but look brown here. I'm guessing they'll be hazel.

Takoda and Mommy

We spend so much time together, i'm surprised he isn't sick of me yet:) haa haa, but last night he wasn't feeling so well. We discovered it was heat stroke. Takoda was burning up like crazy. But after some sleep, lots and lots of water, meds, and a cold bath, this is how he woke up:) I secretly love it when he feels sick, b/c we love to snuggle and he does what I say haa haa.

Grip Saver!You see this phone? Well it's mine, and the case (which has a grip to it) saved it's life today. Yes, it's life. I couldn't find my phone anywhere and then it hit me... I left it on the back of our Vitara when I was done talking to Kate. Todd, decided to take that car to work today. I called his store (which by the way, he answered the phone so professionally, I found it cute) anyway, he said he'd go look out on the car...I gathered the boys and we were about to get into our car to look on our street for it, when he called and said, "It's still on the back of the car!" Did I mention our car has a spare tire on the back and that's where I placed it...on top of the covering of the spare tire. So as you can see this case literally saved my phones life and pretty much mine too:)!

Dogs

To say Takoda loves dogs is an understatement. Big ones, little ones...short, fat, doesn't matter. Well we've discovered one glitch, he's allergic.

So far it seems he's allergic to the big dogs. Smaller dogs seem to be the hypoallergenic breed and so he's fine with them. But...this is what it looks like after touching and playing with his favorite animal. Poor kid, who knows maybe it'll fade as he gets older...right? Lets hope.


And my cute little Eli. Oh how much I love this little guy:)

Takoda's Savings

We finally opened a savings account for this little guy. He has a piggy bank he keeps all of his $ in. Any birthday card he gets with money in it, and any money in our money jar we end up taking to the bank. Takoda was so happy to take it inside. It was cute, b/c while in line there were some other kids around his age and all the kids kept saying Wow...Look... or the kids were pointing at all his change. Takoda had a priceless grin on his face, as if to say," Yep I know...and it's all mine"

Memorial Day


watching the fireworks...Todd LOVES fireworks...Takoda??? ummm not so much, we found out. I think it was b/c we were so close to the set up that Takoda was so scared. It really was loud even for us adults,... Takoda ended up inside the truck where he felt a little bit more safe:)

Garden Time

As we all know, Todd has the green thumb in the family... We already have so much growing. Last night we ate our first zucchini, snap peas and cherry tomatoes...all of which was delicious!

Daddy enjoying Boy Time

Todd has been so good to stay home with the boys while I either run errands or go to mutual.

Eli
He just had his 2 mo check up today. He turned 2 mo on the 28th. Can we say BIG BOY! ... this guy weighs 15 1/2 lbs... 95% and height 23.75'' 80%. He has officially grown out of the bassinet, which is a sad day for me. I put him in his crib for the first time tonight, it's a bitter sweet feeling... We'll see how it goes. Did I mention 3mo. clothes are snug and so he's mainly wearing 6mo. Eli smiles alot and really is a good baby...I sure love my boys!
