Eli's Second Birthday Party

Jakob's buddy Eli turned two on November 8th, and the Detweilers threw a big party for him at their beautiful new house just up the road from us.  There were lots of people and tons of delicious food, and all the little ones had a fabulous time.  Eli was so cute opening his presents, taking time to look at each and playing with the wrapping paper.  Jakob and Caleb, seasoned pros at turning two, decided he wasn't opening gifts quickly enough for their liking and started helping him take things out.  Fortunately Eli didn't seem to mind the help!

Here Caleb and I are opening Eli's presents
We also like his tower

November 9 is a big day in our house, because on this date last year we got our first glimpse of our little man.  Of course, at that time, he was still too tiny for the doctors to know his gender, but they assured us he was growing well and healthy.  From the first moment his image appeared on the ultrasound monitor, Dan and I were so in
