Moments to remember

You can tell we are back with family since I hardly ever put up pictures anymore...I don't have mom calling and demanding new pictures every week now that she sees them whenever she wants!  I have been printing these blogs out in a book every year to serve as my baby books so I have been meaning to update...but the summer has gotten away from me. Mom has the boys today and I knew if I didn't do it first thing, it wouldn't get done. I am going to try to update once a month until Eli is 3 so he won't think I just forgot about him one day when he reads through the books!

Easter egg hunt at school

This is Jay's friend, Zachary. They have been best buds since day 1

Ethan is is other right hand man...he sure has missed both of them this summer!

The blonde next to Jay is his "girlfriend", Georgia Claire....apparently they broke up the last few weeks of school because she doesn't like to get dirty and won't play cops and robbers with him. Drama!

Jay's class showing off their eggs

This is the best picture I could hope for, I guess

Proud of his find

Helping Eli to the other room....sweet!!

"Can I open this now??"

Making sure big bro doesn't have more eggs than he does

This is the day I bought a seat cover for the car....I thought it was pretty clean until I took out Eli's car seat!!

Pictures on Easter at Hickory Springs

Eli learning how the egg hunt works

Again, "when can I eat the candy?"

Jay and Brooks hunting away

On a mission

He is not watching after Eli this time...it is all about Jay today!

Quick pose for me

Uncle Oren helping Eli find an egg

"no egg there!", he says...Daddy has to help too

Let's just step on it and see what happens

"ohhhh!  there it is!"


"where eggs??"

mouth full of candy

some of the dye got on his hands...

priceless!  "what in the world is that??"

At home turning our gazebo in a fort, Jay is ready for his turn

Pouting because Eli no longer obeys his commands

Ok, now he gets a turn

Field trip to Jay's new school starting this fall.

The boys are ready to see where the big kids go to school!

Eli is practicing his rock climbing

Jay learned how to swim a few weeks ago! 

"yay! Jay, good job!"

Here is Jay getting his t-ball trophy

His buddy, Max...they are so cool.

The last day of pre-k...yogurt treat!

pre-k graduation

Papa and Eli waiting for the program to start

It was so cute...the teachers and Mama Ross did a wonderful job that night and all year! 

Jay is toward the back center waving to us

I will have to frame these next to us at his high school graduation one day!

Loves his daddy

Jay and Zachary again

Loving on Papa too

His sweet teachers, Mrs Lindsey and Mrs Lindsay...Jay loves them so much!

Waiting to ride the train at the Agirama...Eli's favorite thing!

Eli's first camping trip

This boy loves climbing trees!

Swimming at Reed Bingham....it was so hot that day, this was perfect.

Finding cool leaves

Chasing each other around the pole

Falling down is always the best part, right!

Helping with the fire

I love Eli's expressions!

Giving Jake a back rub

He is very skeptical of this roasted marsh mellow thing...

He tried it, and then quickly spit it back in Wes' hand..."no like it"

Sweet pic

Fishing

Jay knows what he is doing, thanks to Papa!

Jay also learned how to ride his bike without training wheels!  He is scared to go on the street but rides all over the yard and driveway. And loves to ride on the cart path when we walk through the golf course

What a big boy

Fun at Bass Pro, hunting ducks

Jay took this close-up of Eli

Jay is helping pass the offering plate at church, he was so proud!

Father's Day

Wes and his dad

All the boys!

I am holding my nephew, sweet Gavin Thomas Lamon!  He is adorable!

Doesn't he remind you of Eli???  So cute

Jay is teaching Gracie how to play golf, Dad would be proud

Look at her cute Big Sister shirt!

Still trying to figure this thing out

How many toddlers will fit in the play house?

Jay showing Gracie her new book!

Cousins

She decided the club was an excellent weapon...sorry Kurt and Ashley!

At Fernandina with the Ross'...Eli pointing to a boat

Trying to boogie board

He finally gave up on that and just played in the waves

Right when we got on the beach, Eli walked over to these girls (we did not know them) and started asking for things...what a mess!

this boy loves the beach



"daddy, don't leave me!!"

Wes tried to take Eli out on the board

all was fine until a wave knocked him over...

He needed to be held the rest of the time

I like this pic

Careful boy, back in his element

no waves will come out of no where and knock him over now.


Walking out with Mama Ross

Tractor is stuck, mama!

sand castle time

nap time



we took the boat to Cumberland Island, Eli loved the horses




napping again

back on the beach





another visit with Gavin :)



Fourth of July fireworks at the Agirama

He likes cotton candy

chowing down on yummy watermelon!

ring toss

they had to get their faces painted

i don't know what he is showing me here...

party at Aunt Gail's for Granny's 85th birthday! Eli finally decided that he likes the water!

Smiling with Mimi

Eli has learned to use the potty but I don't have pictures of that. :)   He was a lot easier to train than Jay, probably because he's been able to watch Jay. He loves his big boy underwear and if you are lucky, will pull down his pants and show them to you!  That would have been a funny picture, uh?
