Just Life

I had Elliot's Bible class on Sunday and I took a video of one of the songs that we sang.  Elliot is in the singing mode right now.  We got a book of German songs with a CD--many of the songs we already knew from his music class!  He really enjoys listening to the CD!  Thanks, TEAM!
 
And Nolan news--one of his outfits is already too small.  How can that be?
 
 
 
 
 
 
Sleeping beauty #1

Sleeping beauty #2 and not sleeping, but beauty #3

About to make a cheesecake.  It was a box mix.

Rolled Nolan into the kitchen so that he could bake with us.

Andre is back at work...

...so there has been some adjusting around here! 
1.  I sleep when the boys sleep. 
2.  Computer time is much less. 
3.  Elliot is very helpful and loves Nolan, but he wants to read a lot.  That is his way of getting attention. 
4.  It takes us a lot longer to get to the store! :)
 
 
It is kind of hot in the apartment...

Elliot's new thing is just wearing his underwear.  I am lucky to get a shirt on him.  :)

Two Weeks Old

Nolan did a great smile today.  I was just too late in getting a picture.
Two weeks old today!  Babies are so addicting.  Why do they grow so fast? 
 






Elliot sure was glad to see Papi this afternoon after work!
 




Hungry Boy

 
Thought I should get Nolan drinking his bottle...
 
 
 
 
Playing with the cars at Oma and Opa's.

First Family Outing

 
On Saturday afternoon, we did our first family outing (aside from church).  We just walked down to the little ice cream place down the hill.  We are good customers...
 
  
They have guinea pigs that Elliot enjoys watching.
 


 
It was pretty hot outside, but if you don't have any body fat, you get bundled up!

Little Bit of Everything

Just a little bit of everything!
 
 
 
Me and one of my beauties!


Elliot drew an egg.  He was so proud! 

And then he colored it red.

He took this picture of his egg all by himself.

And this was another picture he took.  The crayons from TEAM.

And I think he took this one too.

Presents from Prague

Thanks TEAM!  Hope you enjoy the videos!

Some Pictures of Nolan, Elliot and Papi

We have been doing pretty good!  I am so thankful that Andre is home for another week.  Elliot has been doing great and is very helpful and nice to Nolan, but he also needs the extra attention from Papi!



First bath was a loud affair.
 
Still not happy.
 
Finally calming down.
 
Elliot is reading to Nolan!

Little feet--he has Andre's feet!
 




Papi worked his magic and calmed him down!
Time for a haircut?
