Our dog Dallas has adjusted well to having another kid in the house. She really could care less about Eli. Although it was cute to she her run over when I was trying to take this pic and roll over to get into the pic. I guess she's probably desperate for a little attention now that she has been knocked down another rung on the attention totum poll. lol
What's freaky about this pic is that Eli is fast asleep...even though his eyes are still slightly open. I've been told that I tend to sleep with my eyes open at times...guess I passed that on to Eli. Still, it's FREAKY to see. I wonder how his little eyeballs don't cry out cause he doesn't seem to blink at all when sleeping like this....I don't know...it just looks freaky. Did I mention that it just freaks me out???? lol

Geo Trax Boy

Jeremiah got some Geo Trax trains and air plane for Christmas. We've slowly added on to that and as you can see from the pic it's fastly taking up A LOT of room. lol But he loves trains and these are prefect for him. He can work the trains and planes by his self and plays with them daily. Daddy secretly loves them just as much as Jeremiah and the two of them often "play trains" together. I think we are going to have to invest in the track expansions that have lifts so we can make the tracks go over the already existing tracks....at least that way they won't be taking up the entire basement floor! lol

The Car Wreck


A pic of the car the ran right into the neighbors tree yesterday. Not sure way, but the guy just ran straight off the road and into our next door neighbors yard and was stopped by the tree. Thankfully the guy was ok, just a sore knee. Eric has taken to calling me "Little Glo" (after my mother-in-law Gloria) because I've told the story of how I heard the car smashing into the tree more then once or twice.
For those of you that don't know my mother-in-law...some people (not me of course because I'm the perfect daughter-in-law. hehehehe) seem to think she has the "gift" of telling the same story over and over and over.
So because I told the story more then once...I'm now little glo. But hey,whatever. It's not everyday a car wrecks in your neighbors yard. And lets face it...these days...with 2 little ones in the dead of winter....I don't get out much. So this is big news for me. lol

Well little Eli is 6 weeks old now. He's already changed soooo much. Jeremiah is still loving the whole big brother thing. The one and only sign of jealousy he's ever shown is when Eli has a little toy or rattle. Jeremiah thinks it's his and doesn't really want to willingly let Eli have it. lol But if that's the worst he does while adjusting to a new baby in the house...I'll be more then happy with that. Jeremiah really is a great big brother and is very protective of his baby brother. Eli can't cry more then 30 seconds without Jeremiah telling me I need to pick him up cause Jeremiah doesn't like to see him cry. He'll run and give Eli his pacy if I don't get there fast enough and he loves to cuddle with Eli when he's down on the floor.
Eric loves being the father of 2 boys. We have already stated that we know Eli wasn't our last baby (God willing). Eric seems to think that he "only makes boys". I told him then we'd keep going and going till I got at least one girl...even if that meant when ended up with 10 kids! lol I guess we will just have to see what the future holds.

The New Addition

On Jan 5th 2009 we welcomed little Elias Scott Foster into this world. He was 6 lbs. 15.7 oz and was 21 inches long. Eric and I are thrilled to have another boy and Jeremiah loves being a big brother. Hopefully this blog will be a great way for those of you that can't see us all the to see how our little family is growing and what we are all into.
