At the beginning of November, Cary's parents, his sister (Lissa), our brother-in-law (John), and our adorable niece Marisol came to visit us and to welcome the newest Pierce into the family. Here are some pictures from their fun visit!
Here is Grammy riding Jordan's scooter. Go Grammy!

Elijah slept a lot of the time they were here.
Lissa (once a competitive ice skater) took us to the ice skating rink at the Galleria where Jaron tried ice skating for the first time!
Jordan skated circles around most of the kids there.
I think it's fair to say that this was hard work for Cary, not Jaron. Cary had to hold Jaron up the entire time. I guess that's all we can expect from a 2 and a half year old ice skater.
But he had SOOOOO much fun!! Thanks Daddy!
Lissa did the same trick for Marisol. There you can see Cary and Jaron in the background too.
Here is Elijah having a little "tummy time" with Dada.
We went to Mimi's house one night for dinner, and of course Jaron and Marisol had to play Jaron's favorite game, "shirts." This game involves taking each shirt out of Mimi's closet drawer, trying it on, and then throwing it on the floor.


Look at this adorable little face! I can't believe he is old enough to look this alert!
Recently, we've been working on getting Elijah to drink milk from a bottle. So the boys and I were on our way out the door to go to Jaron's "Little Gym" class, where Mimi was going to feed him his first bottle. I had it all prepared, warmed up and everything. The baby was in the carseat, and I had my keys in my hand. Then, Jaron saw the bottle and said, "I wanna feed Lijah his bottle." I told him we were going to the Little Gym and he could feed him another time, but Jaron insisted. As it was one of the first times Jaron has been interested in Elijah, I decided to take the moment to give Jaron his wish. Here are the pictures of the proud big brother who fed his baby brother his first bottle!


Of course, Elijah didn't drink much that first try, but Mimi gave him the rest a few minutes later!
We had a fun night at Creede Hudson's house the other night eating pizza and playing with toys. Cary and Creede were out of town and we made the most of the evening. These two are a couple of jokesters. They laughed and laughed with each other. It was so cute!

Here's Jordan playing with his tiniest brother.
Another shot of the cute little face who is the newest member of our family!
