Zooming Cars

Zooming cars with daddy in the hallway:

E's new garage

We are in what seems like part 100 of our kitchen re-do and the doors are currently off the cabinets making a perfect new garage for all of E's trucks, tractors, and trains.

He's a happy boy!

Peas in a Pod

E's first fort

We built E his first fort and had a lovely picnic inside. He was mildly entertained for about 45 minutes which is a major victory in our house!!

Playing in the fwuvee*

* Translation = "shower"

Snacktime

Ah Mommy's Shoes

Trying to fill Ah Mommy's shoes ...

Little Fashionista

Those of you who see E regularly know he can rock some interesting outfits. Had to capture this dream combination ... soccer shirt, fire truck pants, Cars shoes, and playing with mixer truck and Ah DeDe.

Life is good.

Genius Idea

If my chair is good, and outside is good, then my chair outside must be GREAT!

No?!?

Watching for Trucks

Touch a truck

Yup. There is such an event called "Touch a Truck" so as you can imagine, Elliott was in heaven!

When we were in Nashville, we got to see and touch every mixer truck, recycling truck, police bike, 18-wheeler, tractor imaginable. E was almost frantic ... not knowing which to see next!

We were so glad our friends Eli, Olive and Ryan could come too!

Ah Mommy* Headshots

Today we took new headshots for Ah Mommy* and as you can imagine, E was particularly helpful!


* Here's a guide to Uncle names in case you are a little confused ... I can imagine why:

Daniel R = Ah DeDe
Michael = Ah Mommy
Matty = Also Ah Mommy (just use context clues to figure out which Ah Mommy he's talking about)
Daniel L = Dew

Car Hat

Last time we were in Nashville, Elliott took to wearing GG's hat when he drove his car. He started calling it his car hat ... so adorable!

Water Table

E loves the water table at Lovee's house!! It always start out as playing with the water table and then progresses to playing IN the water table :)!

Palm Springs Home

We just got home from our second annual vacation with some of our favorite people. This year we went to Palm Springs ... we are thankful for amazing CA friends who are more like family!

Park

We took E to the park this afternoon with camera in tow. He's turning into such a big boy.
