Weeks 17-18

 Reading the paper with Dad...

 Chilling with Dad, catching up on current events...

 Eliana has started paying more attention to her playmates in her jumperoo. She still loves biting the front cloth, but she is becoming more aware of all the cool toys.

 Yes, Mommy?

 Well hello....

 Friends!! Eliana had Aven over for a play date. They sure had fun in Ellie's crib. It is so fun to have Aven living here in Houston now. He is almost exactly 3 months older than Eliana. Fun times...

 Snuggle time...

 Gabe came to visit Eliana this past weekend. She sure had fun hanging with him. He gave her lots of love and attention!

 Come back and see me sometime Gabe!

 Getting ready for her first swim!

 Ready to walk to the pool!

 Family trip to our neighborhood pool. Pretty hot, but Ellie had a good time.

 What is going on here, Mom?

 Pool time!!

 This doesn't look like my bath. Hmmm...

 I think this is going to be fun. Just trying to get in the groove...

 Hanging with the big kids at brunch after church. Thanks Auntie Cristin for my pretty white dress!
