Look Ma, No Hands

Well the little guy can almost sit up all on his own now, thanks to a wonderful little seat called "Bumbo". Its this foam seat that is designed to help them sit up from young age. Some days he loves it, other days he'll have nothing to do with it. But he sure is growing fast... and trying to talk sooo much now! Its pretty cute when he tries to have a conversation with you when all his words are just "Gaaaa's", "Aaaaah's", and "Ooooohs". At least he's trying! He's just over 10 weeks in these pictures... enjoy :)

How Does Your Garden Grow

So while Eli and I were away in Kelowna, Jared kept himself busy by building us a garden. What a great job he did. I am very excited to see all the flowers take over the boxes, and next year to plant veggies in the large box at the back. It definately makes our yard look so much better. He has even more grandiose plans for the garden, which include lattice's and beams filled with vines and hanging baskets... but thats next years project!

Bon Voyage

So Eli and I have had our first adventure together. Last thursday we left Edmonton for the hottest city on earth.. Kelowna. Our first plane ride, which went really smooth. He pretty much just slept the whole time, and the West Jet girls were sooo nice and helpful.
So far our time has been really relaxing, just trying to stay cool. Thank goodness my parents have air conditioning. Eli also experienced the beach for the first time on Canada Day, he didn't seem to mind the water, even tho it was a little cool.
This week will be busy with lots of visiting and our baby shower tomorrow night, but lots of fun nontheless. We just miss Daddy... wish you were here Jared!
