Sweet Boys....




Here are my sweet little boys sitting together at the park. Thankfully my dear, dear friend Sara makes sure we get out each week, because I certainly couldn't handle the two of them without her help. We would be lost without Sara and Mac!

Eli is really starting to pay a lot of attention to Knox. I think he is making a good adjustment to having a little brother. Knox is doing well too. He is a growing, growing, growing! We can't believe how big he is!




Dedication Sunday




Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.(Psalms 127:3-5 ESV)
Our family had a wonderful weekend, especially as we celebrated the dedication of Knox. Our church had a very sweet ceremony and we were fortunate enough to commit him to the Lord in front of our church and families. We were reminded of our duties as parents to do our best to raise our children in a Godly home. We have been very blessed in the last 13 months!




Walking Everywhere!







Our little Eli is walking everywhere! About two weeks ago he decided he was finished with the crawling and it was time to walk! We are so proud of him! He has really exerted independence with this new skill.

Masters Weekend

Daddy's golf bag is still a little too big for Eli.
Eli is into everything right now-he was on a mission in this golf bag!

He finally found that lost golf ball.

Eli has been trying to help with Knox, but he doesn't have the greatest amount of patience with him. He steals his pacifier and then tries to force him to take it back. Every day is quite the adventure!



Tarheel Pride




Needless to say, Monday night's National Championship was a big deal at our house. Well, for most of the boys in our house. I really wanted Carolina to win the National Championship last year for Eli, but instead they won it this year for Knox. I just hope this doesn't mean that Eli will be a Duke fan! I made several attempts to catch both the boys in their UNC apparel...no such luck and there are bigger battles to fight right now!

1st Week

Eli had his first Little Gym experience today at a friend's birthday party.
He had so much fun!Eli couldn't believe we hadn't taken him to this wonderful party place before today!

Knox and Van enjoying the party from the sidelines.


Knox had his first round of pictures today...I snapped a few around the photographer. He was wide awake the entire time...the most alert we have seen him.


This was a very good week for our family. Knox is sleeping really well, even a few long stretches during the night. Eli is doing really well with the new addition...we are just working on being gentle with the baby. Eli is really enjoying all the extra attention from his Daddy. We give our first week an A+...
