Day Lilies
These have GOT to be my new favorite flower... they look so beautiful. The odd thing is that I don't remember having white ones last year?? Guess they just came up on their own. Also, I think the red ones were orange last year, too. Strange, the inner workings of a garden!!!
A Much Needed Update
It has been a little too long since my last post, but the summer just seems to be so busy! The last month or so, Jared has been very busy with not only work, but also preparing to M.C. a fairly large wedding. Which is happening this Saturday, and it's at the Fairmont Hotel McDonald (where the Queen stays when she comes to AB). So, needless to say, Jared has been slightly stressed. I have been doing all I can to help him, I know he is going to be great. We are also very excited to be able to stay the night at the hotel... sans BABY!!! heehee. Not that we don't love and adore Eli, but we are very excited to have our first full night and morning to ourselves. Courtesy of Grandma who is flying into town later today. It's going to be one crazy weekend, but super fun too.
Eli is growing up so fast, 14 months already!! I can't believe it. He is very much in the 'learning stage' of his development, constantly pointing and 'asking' (in his own way) what everything is. His baby signs are becoming more varied as well... along with the classic 'milk', 'eat', 'more', 'daddy', he is now doing 'juice', 'dog' (ALL THE TIME, as we have three very yappy dogs that live next door), 'frog', 'pita', 'banana', 'book', 'all done'... that's all I can think of right now :) He is LOVING books right now, and although he can sign them (kind of, it gets mixed up with 'all done'), he tries to say 'book'. It comes out like: 'Buhh??'. Everything is a question... haha. He also tries to say 'duck', but that also comes out like 'Duhhh??' haha. So cute. The rest of his ramblings sound a lot like 'The Chef' and 'The Aliens' from 'The Muppets' all rolled into one... its really really funny to listen to.
Ok, enough of the chatter, here are the recent pictures of our little fam! Enjoy!!!
Eli and I at the St. Albert Waterpark... cooling off!
He LOVED the water, no fear at all!!!
Looking cute and all dressed for church. He wouldn't hold still for a good picture.
Eli turned on the TV by himself and found Sesame Street. Such a smart kid!
Eli having some crazy meltdowns... just needed to cry and only his little stuffed Ernie understood. And I, the great mother, took pictures of the whole thing!
