Grandma & Grandpa Morse visit

We had a great visit from Eric's mom and dad last weekend! We enjoyed a breakfast at la mie, the boys did some outdoor projects, and we enjoyed each others company. One funny similarity is that in my photos from last weekend, my dad was asleep on the exact same spot as grandpa mike! Special sleep spot for grandpas I guess! I also have to show off Elaine's long hair before her first haircut coming up! Can you believe I was able to put it into a pony?? Can't wait to see her new look after Saturday!

Weekend with Grandma & Grandpa Frost

We had a great visit with grandma and grandpa Frost over the weekend, and also kicked off Halloween. Here are some photos of fun with G&G, (tired grandpa!) and a fun little "Pumpkin Walk" for kids on 5th in Valley Junction we went on spur of the moment. Here is Elaine with her friend Ellie the spider!

Expanding vocabulary

Elaine seems to be chatting up a storm lately and although you can tell what she's saying most of the time, I wanted to put together a little translation just for fun, and possibly for a babysitters use!!

Nana= banana
Bup bup = pick me up
Alpo = Elmo
Dodgy = doggy (any animal actually including cats, squirrels, teddy bears, bunnies, etc)
Cuck = duck
Aboo = a book
Teeda = touchdown
Tay doo = thank you
Beebee = baby (any human under the age of 12)
Adaa = all done
Hhhhtttt! = hot!
Uh oh = uh oh
Buh bye = bye bye
Hi = hi
Poopy = poopy

Also wanted to share some photos of our little gal checking out the changing leaves, smiling in her high chair, and enjoying a snack with her buddy, Quinn!

Busy busy baby!

Elaine has been quite the busy lady!! Here are some fun pics over the last month!

Overdue post - August and September!

It's been far too long since a blog post so at the very least I want to post some photos! I'm discovering I have more readers than I realized! Sorry that they're in no particular order! Enjoy... Office remodel photos coming soon!

Elaine Climbs the Stairs

Special update featuring Elaine's latest performance - climbing the entire flight of stairs!  And then a mini flight ( for extra credit).  Ta da!

Finally enjoying the outdoors!

With a much needed break from the heat, we have been spending as much time outside as we can!!

This is my first blog post from my phone so hopefully it is a success. We went to the fair, saw the animals, played a little on the playground, watched all the people and returned home exhausted!

Elaine is enjoying exploring and has found the stairs! For a little girl who is too afraid to let go of our hands to walk solo, I'm shocked she is brave enough for this!

Other pics of our target run and her first piggies (pigtails) make her mama and papa smile!!
