We had Eli's first birthday party a little early, opening presents in the afternoon and having cake and ice cream after dinner. Joel, Denise, and two-week-old Jacob joined us for dinner. Their other three kids were spending the week in eastern NC with their Aunt Tonya.

The Moores took a road trip this weekend to visit Eli and the rest of the Sullivans weekend.  Elliot also got new shoes and some "orthotics" to help him with his "twinkle-toes" habit.  You can see them in the third picture below (of Matt and Elliot playing video games - Elliot's favorite activity when visiting the Sullivans).
