So Much Energy...

I don't know where he gets it, but after a day like this, I'm pooped! 

Yesterday was Jeremy's work party. 

Eli had hot dogs, 

played in the bouncy castle

Rode the train... 

a bunch...

Tried cotton candy for the first time, and got his face painted

Attempted the bungee run

And Batmanned (yes that is a verb) everybody in sight. 

I'm sure at work, everyone will be asking each other, 

"Who was that masked kid anyway?"

Time for a nap!

mmmMMmmmm

Jeremy helped me make a quadruple batch of tortillas....

These keep quite nicely in the refrigerator... I wouldn't know how long though, cause they are so yummy they vanish quickly!

Carrots!

Wow! Can't believe these came from my garden! I have never been able to grow carrots before! 

I will be making baby food! 

Eli Art

Eli "borrowed" my camera, and when I got it back, (found it in the toy room) I found that he'd taken a bunch of pictures of his artwork, so without further ado....

(His titles, btw)

"Daddy and Iris"

"Batman, with a smile, mad eyebrows and a house"

Captain Hook

Me and Grandpa Mustache and Grandpa Margo

So STRONG!

This makes me nervous...

Eli has discovered that he is "strong" enough to pick up Iris by himself!

I'm fine with that, as long as I am right there to supervise, but of course, this is Eli, and supervision is for lesser children... *sigh* 

Please don't drop your sister, E!

p.s. Look! Her hair is growing back! 

Big Boy Haircut

At least once a year I get tired of dealing with Eli's hair, and chop it all off. 

This time is the shortest it has ever been. And I mean EVER! It was longer than this at birth! 

At church yesterday, he told everyone he saw, "I got a haircut, and my hair is short like my DAD'S!"

So handsome!

(I almost forgot he has ears!)

Produce!

Hmmm.... first day of August... so sad. 

How I wish Idaho had a growing season longer than two weeks!

Tomatoes:

And a bell pepper!
