Springtime!

Spring is finally here to stay! It's been a blast watching Elijah explore the great outdoors, and I'm happy to say he loves being outside just as much as his mommy and daddy do!

Enjoying a snack outside.

A few weekends ago we went to the Kellogg Bird Sanctuary. Elijah is really into ducks right now and he was delighted to see so many in one place! There were swans and geese as well, but Elijah kept yelling "Duck! Duck! Duck!" :) We got to feed them and watch them fly, swim, and "run" across the water. We always have a fun time at the bird sanctuary.

A first look at all the birds.

More birds please!

Feeding the birds.

Helping Daddy feed the birds and sampling a little of the corn himself!

This time of year always brings so many new adventures, especially for a 15 month old little boy!

Elijah got this towel from his cousin. :)

Elijah's One Year Pictures

My good friend, Jess, took Elijah's one year pictures for us and they turned out great! Especially considering the fact that Elijah had only napped for half an hour all day and was not his normal happy self. She did a great job capturing his winning personality despite him having little enthusiasm about getting his picture taken! You can check out her work here on facebook. She's really good!

So precious!

Happy boy!

Squinty eyes!

FOOTBALL!

We call him "Baby Rogers"

So serious in his suit.

Isn't he so sweet?

Melts my heart. :)

Plenty, plenty of things going on in our life right now. We move in full speed and then God slows things down for a bit. We are entering a "slow" period right now, having just come out of a whirlwind. But with the sunshine and springtime and no more class for Tim, I don't think we'll have trouble filling up the next few weeks!
