Fun with new toys

The Mr. T in your pocket: Don't give me no back talk sucker....

Crawling through tunnels we set up downstairs

Helping Mommy in the kitchen

Ellie likes to help me cook and wash the dishes.

Apple picking with Grandma Marilyn and Grandpa Mike, October 1st

Little Babushka enjoys her apple (although she chewed on it for about 10 minutes and it still wasn't gone)

It was a lovely day. The next day it rained.

My mom and dad came and helped me. They watched Ellie while I worked. Ian was out of town at a U2 concert

Ellie around the house

She's getting ready for medical school (just kidding, don't worry, we're not programming her, except to never go to the emergency room unless a limb is really falling off)

Folding laundry and she knows how to party

Visit from Grandma Robyn and Grandpa Dennis, Sept. 18-22

Princess Leia reading with Grandma Robyn and Grandpa Dennis

Ooh, scary Ellie

Oh, man Grandma Robyn, you are not going to believe it....

Foray into free range Ellie: she feeds herself and washclothes everywhere pay the consequences

Who is that masked consumer?

Cute but Messy just like daddy (well, really more like mommy)

Can I eat the whole thing at once?

This is the spoon levitation portion of the meal.

Yogurt up my nose.

Oh, yeah, you gonna try to clean my face? I don't think so....

Oh, hooray, food is everywhere!

First 4-wheeler ride

Our neighbors, Sean and Heather, have a 2 and a 1/2 year old boy, Heath, who shared his toys with Ellie the other evening. He was riding his red battery powered corvette.
