Daddy's Little Helper

Elijah loves helping Daddy do "manly" things around the house. He especially likes playing with Dustin's tools, so Dustin bought him his very own Craftsman set. The set is really cute, it came with a little rolling tool chest with a tool box full of tools that attachs to the top of the cart. Elijah loves that he can roll the whole set wherever Dustin goes. The cart has slots on the top of it so Eli can attach the nuts and bolts to the top ELi now has his very own hammer that he can use, which is better than him carrying around Dustin's heavy real one He has figured out how to use both the flat head and the philips head screwdrivers He has not figured out what he is suppossed to use the pliers for yet though

Texas with the Coffmans

We were able to go and visit with all of Dustin's family, (minus his brother Andrew who is on his mission) at their parents house in Texas. We had a great time fishing, swimming and just visiting with everyone. Elijah loved seeing his cousins Savannah and Cammi. Elijah enjoying his first real swim. He really took to the water! Okay, well this picture is just funny! His legs look hilarious underneath his big inner tube swimming suit. Elijah getting ready to "dive" into the water. Elijah loves his cousin Cammi and wanted to do everything she did and be everywhere where she was. Cammi was really great about playing with him. The guys all went fishing at the lake behind Lily and Brian's house. Dustin caught a big ol' catfish. It was so hot and humid the few days we were there that the camera lens fogged up, and that is why the picture is blurry around the edges. It was amazing how humid it was. Ugh!

Cocoa Puffs

Elijah has already learned that Auntie Erin is a softie. She will give him anything that he wants. And as this picture proves, Auntie Erin has been feeding Elijah some Cocoa Puffs.
