A Week Old

Here are a few pictures I took a day or two after his 1 week mark. He will be 2 weeks old on Monday, I can't believe how fast it has gone. He just gets cuter every day. We still can't decide who he looks like, I guess he is his own man.

A Full House

Grandma Hawes, Aunt Jodi, Uncle Jason, Aunt Kimmie, and cousins came to visit on Saturday. It was a little crammed in our little apartment, but we had a great time. We love having visitors, especially family.

Gettin' Some Lovin'

Well, it is no surprise that all the attention has been on baby Eli since he arrived. Here are a few pictures of Grandma and Grandpa Granges visit.

Bath Time

Grandma Grange and Daddy gave Eli his first bath at home. He didn't like getting naked or wet. I am sure that will change as he gets older, you know boys.

Coming Home

We were so excited to bring Eli home! It made things more official and real. He looks so tiny in his car-seat.

Our Little Bundle Of Joy

Elijah Tucker Hawes is finally here! He was born on November 19th and weighed 8 lbs 8 oz. and is 20 inches long. A big guy! We are so excited to have this little miracle in our family and can't believe he is ours. What a joy he is. When he was born he was so bright eyed and alert. He just looked around at everyone and didn't hardly make a sound. He has a little bit of a red tint to his hair and he is as cute as button.

Halloween

This car was in the institute parking lot and I thought it was comical that someone would do this. Leaves are so much fun!

Here is our cute Halloween getup. Isn't that pumpkin belly big?! We can't wait to hold out little pumpkin!

Lake Roosevelt

Last weekend we went to Lake Roosevelt with Micah, Melissa, their kids, Melissa's parents, Dennis, and Karla. We had so much fun! Cody was able to ride four wheelers and go fishing on a boat. I don't think they caught anything, but had a good time. Haley and Kendall are the cute little girls in the picture, they were fun to play with. Beside the beautiful scenery, my favorite part was watching Cody drive a little 50 cc motorcycle. He eventually got the hang of it, but was a little shaky at first. I thought he was going to hit something or someone.

Pumkpin Carving

Here is the finished product of our pumpkin carving this year. If you can't tell the big one is supposed to be Frankenstein and the small one is a skeleton. They are already starting to wither away and it isn't even Halloween yet.

Pumpkin Patch

The Dicksons, Lavines, and I went to a pumpkin patch in Spokane. We picked our own pumpkins and raspberries too. They shot a pumpkin out of a cannon at a target and missed, but it was still entertaining. I wish Cody could have come, but he had to work. Next year we will go together with the baby.
