First Tooth!

I know...you have to look REALLY close, but there is a little, white, SHARP tooth poking out of the gums on the bottom center of his smile.

More cousins

Elias has 7 first cousins...so far
He gets to see his Dryden cousins every Wednesday night at family dinner


We are enjoying the recently remodeled home of Elias' grandma and grandpa Dryden



Grandma Dryden found this "amazing" couch outside the trift store down the road. Perfect for the newly remodeled house!

Cousins

Elias has 7 first cousins.
5 of them are my sister's children. My mom and brother were in town, so we all got together to celebrate in our new back yard!






This is Timmy- the cousin he is closest to in age... I am sure Elias will never get this messy ;)
Elias loves his cousins.

sleeping babies

There is something about watching babies sleep, they are so peaceful.



There is something about them waking up after a good long nap that is wonderful as well!
