Yosemite Snow Trip!

Forever the most peaceful place in the world for me - Yosemite! And even more calming and wonderful in the winter. Last weekend we piled into a Dwyer-filled cabin to enjoy the snow, the sun and each other's company.

Here's Scott catching Eli at the bottom of the "Eli Bum Run"

The whole Dwyer/Nunes/Morse crew (minus camera-shy Finn)

Thanksgiving

This last Thanksgiving we were thankful for...

...family hikes in the woods

...open-mouth kisses for dogs

...wrestle time with Scott

...four generations of strong, healthy babies. :)

Haircuts for everyone!

The before...

...during..


and after. (Unfortunately my skills do not include straight razor shaving - yet!)

Trouble

Now that the skill of walking has been perfected, Eli is on the move faster and faster each day. This is what I found after literally 2 minutes of not watching him - toilet paper - EVERYWHERE! This picture doesn't begin to capture the extent of it. Lucky for me the roll was only about half full! Just look at that satisfied smile on his face.

Bi-Ped!

Eli has officially transitioned into the world of walking. Watch out!! And wish me luck!
