Happy Birthday Brian!

We got both sides of the family together to celebrate Brian's birthday. Brian grilled some delicious burgers. Grandma Bossany made him a cake and Grandma Meyer made his favorite taco dip with chips. We had a fun time with lots of laughs!



This was the first time that all four grandparents were together after Eli has been born. Great group picture!

What a good looking group!

Diaper Model

We got some great pictures of Eli smiling big this morning. We think he could be a diaper model. He is so animated!

Spending Time with Mommy


Eli and I enjoy our days together. I introduced Eli to bubbles this week. He loved watching them land on the furniture and pop. Before I know it he will be popping the bubbles with his fingers. 


Eli and Mama both adore books.



My happy little guy!

Eli Eats Rice Cereal

Eli is now 5 and 1/2 months old and had his first serving of rice cereal right before bedtime. He loved it! What a big boy! Eli also enjoyed sitting up in his highchair.

Eli's First Easter


Eli's first Easter was a very special one. Great Grandma Chaplin and Cousin Becky visited from California.  Great Grandma got to have all seven of her great grandchildren together for Easter. Becky had her two children, Jack and Sadie, and Alison had her four children, Matthew, Ethan, Thomas, and Ava. We got all of the family together for a barbecue Saturday evening at Bunker Hills Park. It was a cool evening, but we had fun staying warm by the camp fire and the kids loved playing on the slack line with Brian and David. 

For Easter we went to church and then everyone headed over to Alison's house for Easter brunch. The kids had fun with an egg hunt and then the adults enjoyed a beer hunt. Eli loved spending time with Great Grandma Chaplin, Grandpa and Grandma Meyer, Auntie Karen, Auntie Kristi, and his second cousins.


Here is the gang! Ethan (7), Jack (3), Grandma Meyer, Eli (5 Months), Great Grandma Chaplin, Sadie (13 Months), Great Uncle Steve, Ava (2 1/2), Matthew (9), and Thomas (5)

Eli 5 Months Old

Our Eli is already 5 months old! He has been sitting up on his own for a week; we are so proud of him. He is very interactive with us. He babbles up a storm and has the sweetest laugh. It is so fun to watch him grow each day. We are so thankful to God for him.
