Slacker!

So I've turned into a terrible blogging slacker! Eli is almost 8 months old and I haven't even posted his 7 month pictures. Plus, I have some great photos of Jason and Xander on their way to watch the Griz play here in Oregon.
Here is our life of late in photos...

mud mustachios! Crazy boys!! The look on X's face is worth the grossness of it for me :)

Pumpkin teamwork

Xander drew the face and Jason carved it out for him. X wasn't too
sure about the slimy pumpkin guts but got in on the fun soon enough.

Shoppin

Eli wasn't so sure about his first ride in the grocery cart but Xander
thought it was pretty fun! I made sure Eli had his pacifier in so he
wouldn't try and bite the cart or the buckle straps. Poor kiddo is
still teething like crazy :(

Playing games!

Eli is suddenly trying to play peek-a-boo with us! Xander started
doing this same thing when he was pretty little so I was wondering
when Eli would start. It's so cute!!

Big 3rd Birthday Bash!

This past weekend we threw a big birthday party for Xander with a bunch of our friends and family. My mom and Jason's parents all made the trip over from Montana to help X celebrate. We rented a super cool bouncy house with a big slide which was a huge hit! And, most importantly,  Xander had a great time!
Here are the few pictures we actually took amid all the craziness!
