GUESS WHO'S WALKING!!!!

Brewer is so gentle with me. He's my favorite!

Whaddya mean I can't have a pony?!


One cool chica! (I then proceeded to break Daddy's sunglasses. Oops.)

But I'm just so sweet!!

See!... I CAN eat a nectarine just like a grown-up.

Checking out Worthington's new HazMat firetruck.


Daddy and I having snacks on the 4th of July.

Mommy and Daddy on his birthday after stuffing themselves with Cheesecake Factory goodies!


Yesterday I took 4 steps, then realized what I was doing and immediately sat down. But tonight I found my self-confidence and there's no stopping me now!! It's my coolest trick yet and all the neighbors have been cheering me on! I had to be walking before our vacation because I hear it's fun to take long walks on the beach. We're going to Frankfort, MI for the next week, with a stop in Greenville to see Jeff and Grace and their family. We can't wait. Brewer even gets to go! We'll let you know all about our adventures when we return. Love, Ellie

Hooray for Ellie! Walking is so much fun! Now you can really get into mommy's and daddy's stuff. When you come down to visit next time, I'll teach you how to run. Love,
Thomas

Congratulations Ellie! Elsiana didn't walk until she was 20 months! You're way ahead of the game:)!

Love,
Aunt Heather

Ellie is just TOO darn cute...one of these days, we'll get to see her in person again, then Alex will have someone else to stare at (other than Siona!). BTW, Alex is officially 6 months old now, and has been eating cereal/fruit/veg for about a month now. The boy can make a mess, I tell you! :) Stay cool and love to everyone! Kim
