Getting to know eachother!

James is really starting to enjoy Legos. Showing off his new creation - Superman and Lex Luthor! Super heros and Legos - so much fun!
Eli is learning to smile - which we are really enjoying!
I think my boys have the cutest eyes ever - James' eyes are a beautiful green-blue and Eli's remain a bluish grey.
Eli is gaining weight - now about 12lbs and he was 50th percentile for weight and 60th percentile for height at his 2 month check-up when compared to term babies! Glad that he's catching up!
I really wonder what he's thinking! Smolder??I had to show off this - James' is on the left and Eli's is on the right. Look at how close the size is - pretty amazing since Eli was 4.5 weeks early! He really wants to keep up with his big brother! I also love that you can see that James has fast running feet even as a newborn! Here's looking at you, kid!Bandit with his boys - funny that only James is enjoying this picture!Everyone loves "Pat the Bunny" here is James reading (or paraphrasing) to his brother.If only they were really sleeping!
Daddy and James sailing the seven seas.
Mommy time with James - popcorn and a movie! Eli and Mommy time - cuddles and kisses.
My aunt Pat came to visit from California earlier this month. It was so much fun and a huge help! Aunt Pat and Eli are best buddies now!
My dad also visited last month. It was a short visit, but I'm so glad that he got a chance to meet his newest grandchild!
My Walters' men!
Grandpa and his boys!
First hug between Grandpa Mel and Eli!

Fast as the Flash

The boys have a need for speed!  Recently James and Eli built Pine Wood derby cars to compete in the James' Boy Scout troop. In the beginning... We did some scholarly research to prepare.  Thank you YouTube! My step-dad, AKA Pawpaw was a big help and taught James to use power tools. Sanding is always fun! James designed and built his car with minimal assistance. Spray paint is always fun. Added weights to make it as heavy as the rules allowed. The finished products! The race was a lot of fun! James didn't win but he worked really hard and was really proud of his car. While his derby car wasn't the fastest, James was the fastest in a recent track race.  My future Olympic sprinter!   Zoom zoom zoom

M-I-C-K-E-Y and a bunch of other fun stuff

Everyone grab their Mickey Ears!  We just returned from a wonderful vacation to Walt Disney World.  We flew down to FL from MA, my sister and her beautiful family and my aunt and cousin all flew from CA, and my mom traveled from MO!   All 11 of us stayed in one beautiful villa right on the Walt Disney property and had a great time. We celebrated JillMama's 60th birthday in style.   We also celebrated my nephew's 2nd birthday while in WDW! Everyone had a great time! We celebrated Halloween a little early at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!   Can you tell we're the Avengers!?!  Eli was the Incredible Hulk, Tobias was Tony Stark (AKA Iron Man), James was Captain America, and I was Black Widow. By the end of the night, the Incredible Hulk was done, but still really cute! Gabe (age 4) and James got along great! Elias and Gavin (also 2) were fast friends too. Fun times on a ride with my little man! Rrrr Matey!  ...

Winter in Boston

Happy February!  I can't believe I haven't updated since November when we've had such an exciting couple of months!   Our Lego family for Christmas 2014 designed by James!  There are a lot of firsts and developmental milestones in first grade!  James finished his first chapter book over the Christmas break!  So proud of him - he is reading above grade level. James also remains very active with track and is working with his gym teacher to start a running club at his elementary school! This was a fun assignment for the entire family.  Once he completed the assignment, James presented it to his class. We did family Christmas pictures this year with a great photographer.  We met at Minute Man National Park - where Paul Revere was captured- and had fun taking pictures together.  I worked the night before and it was cold out, but the pictures still turned out great! The 2014 Walters Family Christmas picture! My two cuti...
