Ellie and the penguin

This penguin is as tall as Ellie. Our friends Dan and Mary Givens gave it to Ellie when she was born. She likes to talk to it but is sometimes a little suspicious of it.

Friends

These are our friends, Meghan and her daughter Emma. Emma is one month older than Ellie. We were at the park and went on the paddle boats. The girls loved it.

Gardening

We planted a garden this year and it looks like we may get some produce including these little red cherry tomatoes. There are lemon cucumbers, green beans, sugar snap peas, cantaloupe, and several other kinds of tomatoes that should be producing soon.

Leave me alone, I'm concentrating on crawling

Gone Swimmin'

We tried out our new blow-up kiddie pool. Ellie had a really nice time splashing around in it and playing with her toys.

Silly and Sweet

Her Chariot...

Our newest toy for us and Ellie, The Chariot. It hooks to our bikes and we can now ride to the Saturday Farmer's Market or down to Lucky 13 to sit outside for some sun and sandwiches. It works really well although neither of us has tried to ride up the hill with it yet.
