Next stop, DISNEYLAND!

Ready to pre-board on Eli's very first airplane ride to San Diego. He's a very good traveler.
Checking out take off right before falling asleep. He slept the whole way both there and back. What a good boy!

Caught in the act of getting into Grandma Fazes (seriously, how do you spell Faas with an 's?) desk drawer...he looks a little guilty don't you think? But too cute in his red shoes. And speaking of the red shoes, you would think he could walk because he is wearing shoes but to dispell any rumors, I'll let you all know that he can't. :)


So, I was trying to give Eli a little pep talk about the thrills and wonders of what was to come on our adventure to the Happiest Place on Earth. I think it was working....maybe. I can't speak for Eli, but I was pretty excited to go.


Riding with Grandma on the tram to the park.




The first thing we did when we got in was sit on Main Street and feed Barry. He was quite impressed with the birds.


Getting ready for take off aboard the flying elephant. I hadn't been on this ride since I was a kid. I loved seeing Barry have fun.


At the control...his favorite place to be!



It's a small world after all. Barry was a big fan of the singing child robots. I'm not going to lie, it's always been one of my favorites too.

Mr. Toad's was Eli's favorite "ride" even though the car was just a stationary picture op. He LOVED driving though. Too bad he was too small to go on Autopia.

Grandma Faas making sure Barry drives safely.
More of Mr. Toad's car

What a fun day! I borrowed this hat from the store for a picture...as you can see, it's probably good we didn't buy it because he was already in the process of taking it off. He's such a cute little mouseketeer!



Reading with Uncle Andrew on Sunday afternoon...Eli loved Andrew and he was an excellent babysitter!

Roarin' Ranch Fun

I haven't posted in awhile. These pictures are from August. More from our latest trip to San Diego will be coming soon!!!
Getting ready for a ranger ride with Grandpa T.

Having a little snack in Mom's old high chair...those might be Mom's old cheerios too. Just kidding. :)


High in the sky on the pully swing. Is that Eli up there?!?





He fell asleep as we were driving on a trail. Ten minutes on the bumpy dirt roads is always a sure fire sedative for Barry. Also, notice the hair....pretty funny. And no, it doesn't need to be cut.

Driving the ranger at the ranch with Dad. He LOVES cars and LOVES driving. Eli, that is.


Just hangin' out in a basket. Very normal.
Bad hair day. :)



















Just getting ready to sit down, relax, and watch a little teley. Eli loves to sit and climb (mostly) all over the couches now.
