Gym and Swim

Drew takes gym and swim twice a week and loves it. There's a half hour of gym time (songs and tumbling) and then he goes to swim lessons for a half hour! He loves swim time and even swims under the water through a hoola hoop!

I think that Drew understands the directions of what to do next more than daddy in this picture!!

Drew's Baptisim

"Today was my big day to get baptised. It was really neat, my parents had it on the beach and afterwards we had a party with some of my friends over. I loved having water pored on my head and thought it was funny!"

Drew with our minister and of course playing in the water!

We decided to give Drew a little piece of cake and at first he wasn't to sure of the texture

Drew then fell into a sugar coma...

And Were Moving to.......

Virginia Beach!!!! The other day Andy came home and told Drew and I the exciting news that he was selected for Admirals Aide. Were so proud of him and are looking to move May/June. SOOOOO if your looking to get your Cali fix come now OR don't worry we will be on a beach in Virgina:) Drew handled the news well and ate his toes!

The Elliots Go Cali

This past weekend Brian and Amanda came from MN to visit us for a long weekend. We took them up to Solvang and then up the coast to visit Hearst Castle. We had a nice relaxing weekend and it was great to see them!

We Are Wine Members!

This past weekend we went up to Solvang (wine country) and brought our MN friends up there with us. We decided this time to become members of a winery which includes two bottles of wine mailed to us every month and free wine tasting when we go there. So if our Midwest family and friends are looking to escape the cold come and visit us in wine country! This is a picture to the enterance of the winery!

Family photo infront of the winery!

Drew was in ahh with the beautiful scenery

"Can you please stop taking pictures and push me...."

What's A Cook'in

So Drew's new thing is looking in the oven! Drew will crawl over to the oven and I turn the light on for him and he's fascinated by it! Forget the toys!!!

Swimming Lessons

Yesterday was the first day of swim lessons for Drew, and he loved them! We sang songs, jumped off the side, floated on our back, and Drew's favorite was putting his ENTIRE face in the water over and over... and over again!

The Tandem Expands

"What your putting a third seat on the tandem... I'm not to sure about this..."

Drew thought wearing a helmet was hilarious!

This Is Fun!

So the other day I saw this tent and thought it would be perfect for Drew when were outside to keep the sun off of him! He loved it and thougt it was hilarious. I have a feeling this is where we will be spending our weekend:)

We decided Mr. Zebra might be better outside vs. in the livingroom!

Drew couldn't wait to get back outside and check out his new pad!

A Beautiful View

With all of the rain we've been having the mountains have received a lot of snow! These are a few pics from where we live.

Chuck E Cheese

So you may be wondering.. "Was it Drew's birthday for them to go to Chuck E Cheese"? Nope.. it was a rainy day and I don't know who was more excited Andy or I!! Drew had a great first experience there, he loved the dancing animals, took a few rides, ate some pizza crust, and watched mommy school daddy in ski ball!

Daddy's Little Helper

Andy had a house project this weekend and Drew was very interested in what daddy was doing and facinated at all the noise!

Aunt Ali ROCKS!

Thanks aunt Allison for this sweet Hawaiian shirt and hat!! I love it!!!

"Has anyone seen the beach..."

I Think It's The Hair..

" I don't know if I'm crying cause I don't want to sleep or cause I'm having such a bad hair day....."

Someone Help!!

So the othe day Drew was making all this comotion in his room and I finally decided to see what he was up to... He had his leg stuck in between the crib!! I think this also may have happened to his cousin Cade;)
