Eli - 23 weeks & 24 weeks

We have been non-stop these last two weeks! But we (being me) thrive on busy schedules. 

Here is a summary of what we have been up to:


Rock the Universe at Universal Studios - Chris was one of the chaperone's for our church's trip to Rock the Universe. So Eli and I tagged along! 

On the way down, we made a pit stop in Tallahassee to see our family and help split up the trip. With this stop, Eli probably had about 40 minutes total of upset time during the 8 hour drive, which is pretty dang good. I at least had 50 minutes of upset time during the drive... :) Here is Eli with our cousins Reagan and Kendall (They were so good to us! We had pizza, fruit and homemade cupcakes! And only family would let you do your babies bath time routine :)

 

 Here are some pictures from our Universal Studios Trip

 

Who is this man in the spandex? Either way it didn't seem to phase Eli :) 



 
After visiting Harry Potter World, Christian and I have decided we probably should watch the movies

 
Waiting in line for the Harry Potter ride, that kept breaking. They have a great kid-swap program at Universal Studios... you all wait in line together and then when you get up there they have a special room for you to wait in with the bebe while your man rides then you switch without having to wait in line again... pretty cool. 



Eli's first ride! The only ride that Eli could get on was the Dr. Seuss ride! It was really cute watching him check out all the colors. 


Loving on and dancing with Eli at the concert

The Voelkel's came to visit - 

The Voelkel's came into town for Eli's dedication and John's (Christian's dad) birthday 
Eli loves pickles

We visited Pensacola 360 while the Voelkel's were in town




Eli wasn't so sure about the ferris wheel, and I wasn't either! I was soo nervous! And I have been bungee jumping. 

Don't let this smile fool you, I am freaking out. 

We also visited Ft. Pickens

 Eli's dedication - 
Last Sunday we had Eli dedicated. We had a lot of our family come and show their support! The Voelkel's were in town, and my nanny, Aunt Ramona, cousin Daphne and her baby Hailey came over to Pensacola to show Eli some love! It was so sweet :) We wrote a letter to Eli to mark the event. We are in the process of getting our families signatures. The day got away from us before we remembered to get our family to sign.

     

                         

                                       

Bands on the beach - 

Last Tuesday we went out to the beach for Bands on the Beach with my friend Stefanie, her baby Jameson and her momma. Eli was trying to get to baby J in this picture! It was a beautiful night on the beach. I was walking over to our spot, when Eli spit up all over my leg. Thankfully some guy gave me a water bottle to clean up. 

                                                 

Eli's Preschool - 

I love Eli's preschool. It is such a great program. I hope to keep him in this program until it is time to go to school. 
                                      

                                      

Crafts I want to do - This looks easy and precious. 
                                                       
Park - How cute is Eli? Seriously love my little man. 

                                                     

                                                     


 

Eli loves the park as well 

Lunch with my Landrum buddies -
