Eli and the swing

We decided to spend the afternoon at the park one day. Eli loved the swing! 





Las Vegas and 173rd Airborne Reunion!

In August, the boys and I traveled to Las Vegas to help my dad with the 173rd airborne reunion. The boys did great on the plane. Thankfully they both travel quite a bit and do great on the plane. 

We ate some donuts before the flight. Eli loved it. 

Eli also loved eating all the snacks on the plane! 

So after we arrived, we had dinner with my parents. It was the perfect time for Eli to have a lemon. It did make for a great photo op. 

First bite. 

The lemon face!!!! Love it! 

Day one of the reunion. Thankfully, Frank made all the boys some great shirts! 

Liam and Noah picked up like they have never been apart. These boys sure do love each other. 

Liam and Eli laying around! I do love them! 

Ethan was so happy to help with his baby! 

My cutie! 

Liam really wanted to order me this drink, but since we just found out we were pregnant, Colleen drank it.


One day,we took the boys to the m&m factory. Liam was super excited! He does love some m&ms! We had a great time with all the m&m stuff. Liam was overwhelmed by the amount of stuff!
Cute little guy! 

He was not to happy about making me take this picture! 

He was super excited about his new m&m light saber and fan! 

This car was super exciting for Liam. A real race car! 

Showing off his new stuff! 

After the m&m factory, we wandered around New York, New York. Liam was happy to see this basketball player. 

Liam and Mommy! 

Thankfully, Nana was so gracious to watch Eli while Liam and I were out and about! Eli didn't seem to mind all the attention!

The red m&m! 

My dad thankfully got us a suite at the hotel. Eli was able to sleep in one room while Liam and stayed up a bit and watched TV and chatted. He loved jumping on the bed! 

I loved late night snuggles with this guy! 

The hotel had this great pool. It was perfect for the kids! Liam loved showing off his swimming. We spent all morning by the pool. It was hard to wrangle Eli but so glad to watch them play.

My little Eli sunbathing!

The hotel had a kids arcade. On the night of banquet, Liam and I did pizza and ice cream for dinner. We also did some video games at the arcade! Liam was super excited. He loved riding the motorcycle. 

He loved this racing game! 

Ice Cream! 

He loved it so much! 

He refused to let go! 

See how much he loved it! 

We had a wonderful trip and a great time with family! It is always wonderful to get the boys together and enjoy family time! 

Austin Splash Pad

Before school school started, Kristen and her boys and Lauren and her kids and I all decided to head to Austin for the free splash pads. Lauren and I met Kristen up in Austin. The first splash pad we arrived at was broken so we headed off to a new one. This one was up a running. It was so much fun. Liam loved it and so did all the other kids. It did start to get crowded after lunch time so we headed over to the park to play. They all had just as much fun. I do wish we had some here in San Antonio. It was quite a fun day. After the park, we made the much need trip to my beloved Steak-N-Shake! I do love me some Steak-N-Shake! 


 
Liam loved playing in the water. 

This makes me smile! I just love this picture! 

This boys all filled up the buckets with water. They thought this was fun. 

He loved the splash pad

Sliding on the fire pole! He was most proud that he was able to do it all by himself. 

Making cars and coloring at Steak-N-Shake! 

Poppy loved her hat! This girl makes me laugh! 

Elias and Liam's Legos

Eli has a love of playing and dumping out all of the Lego duplos.  His favorite thing is taking the Lego flag pole. He loves to wave it around and pretend to sword fight. It is very cute. 

Digging around in the Lego box

Playing! 

He loves this flag pole. Look at that cute smilie face! 

Behind in my blogging

I know I am super behind on my blogging. I am currently working on updating everything. I promise to  be up to date sooner rather than later. I will say these late night wakings from the baby are helpful in this manner.
