Well I got to get out on the snow again this past weekend…  It was a shorter trip to Waterville which was actually awesome because it meant I was home in time to see Elias.  I actually took some shots of him for the PAD, but somehow in the mix with the 2 cameras used…

Wow, can you believe it?  The little (well, not so little) man is 10 months already…  Just 2 more months and we’ll have been at this a year already.  He’s got three teeth now.  He’s pretty much quit eating baby food, and he’s really cruising around the house a lot now.  He’s also walking in…

Well, last year, for my new year resolution, I decided to do a PAD.  A PAD is a photo a day project.  I’ve tried to do them in 2006 and 2007 as well, but failed both times.  This year I knew if I could make it until Elias’ birth, I’d have a good subject and…

Well a new year comes and it’s time to recap 2008.  Obviously it’s been a huge year for us with the birth of Elias.  It’s been a lot of work, but a ton of fun and we’ve really been enjoying everything about parent hood.  He actually is 10 months old TODAY!.  I’ve been on vacation…

Well Elias’ first Xmas is in the books!  He seemed to understand opening presents (read ripping paper) and received a ton of gift.  I’ll try to get a shot of just his loot, but yeah, he’s got enough toys for a while considering how much everyone got him.  Nikki and I also had a wonderful…

for someone else?!  Yep, guess Elias is done with breastfeeding…  Over the last week he’s pretty much given up on it.  Then Wednesday night he bit Nikki and has been having a bottle since.  I guess it’s official, he’s growing up.  He also got another introduction with snow this week.  Friday night we gto ~9″…

2 posts in one day?  Yep.  New cameras have a habit of making me shoot more.  Add to that I love snow, and apparently so does Elias, so you’re getting a double dose this weekend.  We woke up to ~2″ of snow here in RI this morning.  It’s Elias’ first time really seeing snow.  He…

Yeah, so remember how I said I’d do another update last weekend?  I’m guessing you figured out I didn’t get to it by now…..  We ended up having a great weekend and a busy few days this week.  We made another trip to Ikea last Sunday and got a new desk.  I’ll add some pics…

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  I hope everyone is having a safe and fun holiday and stuffing your faces.  I’m thankful for a lot, but the most is in the picture to the left.  Nikki and Elias.  Nikki was off to Newport early this morning to run the pie race.  Elias and I held down the fort…

Our house is starting to look like a jailhouse.  Elias is mobile enough now he’s getting into more things (trouble).  So we’ve picked up 3 more gates this week.  2 are very inexpensive (2 for $20) that aren’t permanent.  We’ve been using them on the doorways to the kitchen for now and they’re great because…

Elias is getting more and more active all the time now.  He’s now crawling all over the entire first floor of our house if he’s allowed.  If not, he can usually get past or through whatever barrier we’ve tried to use.  He’s standing more often as well and pulling things down off higher shelves.  It’s…
