Our Spring

Our sweet Elliot is already 5 months old!  He has lost his newborn hair, and his new hair is coming in blonde.  He is a happy, energetic baby who loves to take it all in.  He is changing so fast, and we cherish each day knowing the "baby days" will be over all too soon.


Happy Easter!
During Grandpa's spring break, we took a trip to the Fernbank Natural History Museum in Atlanta. 


Grandma and Grandpa just got two new puppies, Tiger and Teddy.  They are so cute and sweet, and Alexander loves playing with them.

We took Alexander to the circus in February.  Before the show started, your could go down to the floor and see some of the circus acts up close.  I thought Alexander would love it since he enjoyed the circus so much last year, but he was terrified the entire time we were down on the floor.  He had a great time once we were safely back in our nosebleed seats in the arena!


CG and Padre got metal detectors (Alexander calls them "metal protectors") to use to explore when we go to the beach.  Alexander had a great time searching for treasure in their backyard.

Our Daddy's Boy

Elliot is in LOVE with his Daddy.  He lights up anytime Daddy walks in the room and does a pretty good job communicating that he wants Daddy to play with him just like he plays with Big Brother AO.  The password is odin.

Brothers Play Peek-a-boo

I am amazed at how well Alexander has taken to being a big brother.  Our biggest challenge is that he can be overly affectionate with Elliot.  He LOVES to play with Elliot, and we love to watch them smile and laugh with each other.  I will try to remember this when they are in the backseat together in about five years or so.  Check out the brothers playing peek-a-boo.  The password is odin.
