Quiet...Too Quiet...

We camped up at Bear Lake this last weekend, after coming down from hiking in the mountains, I thought to myself that Eli was being pretty quiet, I was rather tired and was relieved for the silence. When we got out to get the traditional raspberry shakes we beheld what are little elf had been so industriously working on. He had grabbed the formula container from the food basket next to him and had proceeded to open it and scoop most of it's contents onto his lap...guess we are going to milk a little sooner than expected.

Las Vegas Adventure

This last weekend we had the opportunity to have a small adventure with Kaydee and Paul down in Las Vegas. We really enjoy visiting in the spring and fall because the weather is gorgeous and there are lots of fun hikes to do right out of vegas. We hiked on Mt. Charleston and had a fun time tromping through the snow. Hyrum kept telling us we had to follow him, because he was the "instructioner". The next day we went with little different biome, and hiked around the Calico hills of Red Rock. Hyrum loves "hiking in the mountains!" We also enjoyed hanging out in Kaydee's beautiful home and being outside in the sun, I miss the sun in the winter.

Eli was the biggest adventure of our family in 2008. He was a much prayed for little baby and we are so happy to finally have him. He has a very happy smile and is such a fun baby. He started army crawling a couple of weeks ago. He loves to crawl and roll around, but he does not like to sit up, he knows how, but he does not like to do it. He has three little cousins that are his same age and it is fun to see him and Charlie (who lives near by) crawling around together.

I snapped this picture of Eli the other day, he was being a real stinker all day, but I think this is the cutest picture!!
