Eight Months!

Elsa is eight months. Hard to believe. She is a record breaking speedy crawler, can pull herself up, crawls up the stairs and says dada and moma...although not directed to anyone or anything in particular! And yes people, those are the start of chubby cheeks...she is also starting to eat!

Thanks to Uncle Moops and Uncle Chris for the fabbo pics of her!

Chesapeake Bay

A few weekends ago we spent another lovely weekend at Dale and Liz's cabin on the Chesapeake Bay. We were fortunate to have the Blanchards and Gavin join us. Elsa loved the water but wasn't quite so sure about the sand...she must get that from her dad.

The Gladdings Are Great!

We were lucky enough to get to spend time with Gavin, Susan and Carter this weekend. Carter is such a sweet kid and is growing up so fast.
He did a really good job sharing his cars with Elsa and showing her how to play in the dirt. She crawled around in the grass and didn't seem to mind it tickling her feet.

Of course, besides playing with Carter, the best part of the weekend was charming Uncle Gavin.

Grandma Day Care

Elsa's was lucky enough to have her Grandma Ellen watch her this past week. They had a blast at the library, park swings, and playing with her toys and puppy at home. Thanks for watching me Grandma!

Playing with Alya

Elsa and Alya are only 3 days apart in age and love playing together almost as much as their mommies love talking to each other!. In this particular instance Alya used her superior "pulling up" skills to over take Elsa.







Since then Elsa has been practicing and can now pull herself up. Currently its just to get her toys but watch out Alya, next time your mine!
