Eli's First Lazy Saturday

Here are some pictures from a pretty big day around here. We started off this morning kind of late--we all slept in until about 10. Then the three of us had our first outing--we were craving a taste of the real world, so we went to lunch at On The Border. The chimichangas were fantastic, and Eli was a huge hit with the waitresses. He did remarkably well, except that he peed all over his clothes, and then all over Jessa while getting changed in the bathroom. All told, we're very glad we went--it was good to get out of the house.

After that, we went over to Washington Park to take a walk. It was very windy today in Denver, so we didn't stay long, but we had a good time sitting on the park bench and watching the wind blow things around. Eli seems to love the outdoors, which is good, since he's a Colorado baby.

Tonight Eric's dad and his wife came by, all the way from Abilene, to see Eli. We had a great dinner, and Eli woke up in time to get some quality snuggle time with his grandpa.

The first picture is one for Grandma Dotty, who wants a shot of his feet. The second one is Eli in his handmade Onesie...he peed all over it at the restaurant. See how well he opens his eyes now? The third one is the iconic Eli shot...snuggling. The final one is a family portrait from the park. Enjoy!

What a beautiful family! Sound like a really nice outing. It's still 90 degrees in TN- what's up with that? Bring on the fall.

Good for you!! Going outside and some sunshine the sooner the better! This blog thing is a great idea and I am quite frankly addicted to it, but it really just makes me miss you more.:*( Sniff.

First outings are cool! I think F's first was to Target when he was 3 days old. ;)
