Sweet Pea

After thinking for weeks we would not get a costume for Eilee since she goes to bed at 6:30, we couldn't help ourselves when we saw this Pea Pod costume. So, on Halloween we bought it and dressed her up really fast in preparation for Light the Night carnival at Calvary Church. After being at the carnival for 15min, Eilee was out for the night. We carried a limp Pea Pod for the rest of the night :)

Welcome to our blog!

Since some of you may not have seen us for a while we decided to backtrack at bit to show a few highlights from the last couple months. Little Miss Eilee is 7 and 3/4 months old, has 2 teeth now, is chewing on everything, and is developing a little sense of humor...she gets a giddy right before bed time and thinks everything is hilarious! We have a lot of fun thinking of new goofy ways to make her laugh... ;) She is such a joy! We are so thankful God has made us a little family!

Erin turns 30!

Kristoffer took the day off and we spent the day together as a family--lunch at Ramos House Cafe in San Juan Capistrano, visit to a little farm, dinner at PJ's Abbey, and a movie date for K and I courtesy of Grandmama Cheris.

Morning Walk

It's been fun to snuggle Eilee up for a morning walk!

Bath Time

Thanks to a lot of prayers and some good advice, our lives have really developed more of a routine now. Each morning after "our little rooster" crows between 5 and 6:30, Eilee plays, eats breakfast, has a bath, and takes a nap. She loves to chew on her little rubber duckies (she has a few to choose from) and then dunk them under the water. We just love to see her snuggled up in her little towels. I think snuggling is one of the best parts of being a parent.

7 months old!!

Eilee is seven months old today and just loves to jump!
