9 months, 1 week


Elsa had her 9 month checkup last week. Doc says everything looks great. Height: 28 1/2". Weight: 18 lbs. She wears 12 mo. outfits, so I mostly buy 12-18 month. One day she'll tower over me, that's for sure.


Here she is on Memorial day, wearing a 24 mo. dress (courtesy of cousin Ani) that'll be a cute mini-dress for next year. Or maybe a shirt?!

Beware: Teething Baby


Classic. This is the meanest mean muggin' face i've ever captured on digital media. Lately, she grinds her teeth so hard it sounds like they're going to break off. The 6th tooth is almost through.


Grandma and Grandpa got Elsa this little deck chair. Isn't it awesome? It even has a drink holder for her sippy cup.

Come on down!

The Price Is Right is on TV tonight. I guess ol' Bob Barker is retiring. I never watch the show during the day - it's seems too flashy and gaudy for 10 am. It's much more suited to the evening hours. I'm so jealous of the girls on the show. They traipse around the set in cheap evening gowns, slide their hand over a bottle of antacid, and probably make 50k a year. Where can I get a job like that?! My job is great of course, but it doesn't pay very well.
My apologies for the lack of keeping up-to-date. I've been busy with various things, like watching season 1 of Rome, planting spring flowers, taking walks, etc. Exhausting, as you can imagine. Since last time, the hubby and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary (7 1/2 together anniversary), Elsa got 3 more teeth (total of 5 now), can wave "bye bye" and stretch arms "so big". She also looks at the fan, clock, and lights on command.
Sorry, season finale of LOST is almost on. Here are some photos and captions for now. Until next time...


Ready to stroll.


What's she looking at? CARS!


Last Friday mom and I took Elsa to a local restaurant for breakfast. They gave her a little placemat and packet of crayons, as if she could use them. She loved the placemat, though - she waved it around the entire time.


She's gonna be a blondie!
