So you don't think we are dead.....

We are not dead.
Just enjoying our summer.
Bake style.
We have been growing
up a little more.
Spending a lot of time at
the park.
Camping.
Swimming.
Taking long cool drinks from the hose.
Playing for hours in the backyard, croquet, badminton, football.
Having lego explosions in the family room.
Enjoying each other's company.
Finding our place in this world.
I love these people.

Eleanor turns ONE!

That's right, my baby is one!

On the 5th of July was the big day.
She is still Miss Mellow. She is sweet and calm and happy almost all of the time. She says mama and um, yum, and ehhh with a point as in "Gimme or take me to the thing I am pointing at". Not a huge vocab but effective none the less. She is very close to walking, just needs a tad more confidence. She is the biggest cuddle bug. Her fave thing is to open the screen door in the kitchen climb to the patio and climb back in, over and over. She squeals with delight, reads books in bed every morning, thinks her sibs are hilarious and just makes our family perfect. We love you fatto face, you are a dream babe.
Happy Birthday Eleanor!
