The Stages of Growing Elijah!

Our baby boy is 1. How in the world did this past year fly by so quickly?! I will be posting a nice little entry about Elijah's actual party, but in this blog, I just wanted to share pics from Elijah's 1 year to look and see how much he's changed! He's still my little prince charming!

This is our peanut in the womb!

make my butt look big?!
This cute chair was in Menards. Elijah loved sitting in it!

I love my swimming pool!

Elijah has a pretty sweet swimming pool. He loves water and he even got his big brother to join him for a swim! They had fun :)

4th of July

Elijah had a great 4th of July! He's 11 months old and loves loves loves the fireworks. We first went and saw some fireworks in Dayton. We were right under them and he loved them soooooooooooooooo much! Then, a few days later, we went and watched the fireworks with Nana and Papaw in Ansonia. While in Ansonia that day, we watched the parade in which Papaw Rider was in and then went to GG's and had a cookout. A busy, but good day.

Also, we got to visit our nieces (Elijah's cousins). They live in Georgia so we haven't seen them since Christmas. It was great getting to see them, but our time together was too short :(
