playing catch-up!

so...it's been awhile since our last post (june!). you'll have that when you have a baby...and no internet at home. it happens. eli is actually 9 months old...though i do not have a digital photo on my computer yet. he is quite fun, and pretty stinkin' cute (see below)! it's been a fun summer. we decided not to open our pool to save money and are giving it to some friends. we saved a lot of money and time with this decision! we've spent time with friends, worked, played with the baby (a lot!), spent time with family, went camping & boating (eli absolutely loved both!), read several books (cara, not ryan so much-www.goodreads.com!), watched several movies (a perk of my job), fished & golfed (ryan, not cara so much), scrapbooked (cara, not ryan), celebrated a birthday (ryan turned 28 in august) and enjoyed a lot of rest! september brought a whirlwind of busy days. i went to mackinac for work for 3 days, ryan worked in kentucky for 4 days, eli got his first ear infection, i went to a seminar in ann arbor for 2 days...we're just glad to be home, be well and be together!

Oh, how happy I was to see an update! I check often and I was lucky today to see such a sweet, cute, adorable, handsome little guy! Eli is adorable, just like his Mom and Dad. Sounds like you've been VERY busy. Take care and maybe we can get together soon? Love from the Brooks!
