This can count as a gift! Usually crying is all we get from Bret
so this smile is much appreciated!
He's a cute little boy & I love him, but he sure does "complain" a lot.
Alex is a cute big boy & I love him too! Have a great birthday.

I recently was involved in a conversation of some women from church about blogging. Their opinion was that blogging is of the devil because all we do is focus on ourselves and brag. I can see their point with some of the strange people I have heard about on myspace seeking attention. HOWEVER, I don't agree. I think my husband, Alex, put it best (he is so good with words): "It is the ultimate journal! Words, pictures and video!"
I decided that was a thought worth mentioning because I have really enjoyed my time blogging and seeing the blogs of family members! I would not see or here from these family members more than once a year without our blogs!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELIAS!

The big 5!

On Eli's birthday, March 28, Bret also hit the 3 month mark.
Bret spent the first 11 days of his life in the NICU because was wasn't eating quite enough and was losing weight. He is definately doing very well now. He makes so much noise when he eats, trying to breath and scarf it down as quickly as possible. Bret has really bounced back to make up for lost time; he was about 3-4 weeks early. Very healthy, we are so blessed.

Time to Wake Up!

We had to wake Kelli up to pick the big kids up from school. I set her in the car then went back in to get Bret. When I got back to the car Eli had found the camera and was taking pictures of Kelli as she was waking up. I I think photography is in his future. He often finds the camera and takes pictures of all kinds of things. One of his favorites is pictures of the TV. I love my cute little Eli!

Kelli C

This is Kelli's personality in a nutshell. She is very happy and great entertainment. She does funny stuff just to make herself laugh and doesn't care what others think. She is such a joy! The blanket to her nose is kind of funny. She has always liked the feel of rubbing an afghan, or even just yarn, to her nose. I have no idea what this means or where it came from. At least it is a self soother!
