Buh Bay Tia! A Bientot


Tia gets on a plane at 3:00 today.  We had a great 3 weeks and are looking forward to her and Uncle Olivier joining us for Thanksgiving.

The Incident Report

If you look closely at the last couple of photos you can see that The Nut's left cheek is black and blue.  She did this at her Day Care Provider's on Thursday.

If you have had the pleasure of seeing Elsinore walk, you will know she has a tendency to crash into things and/or fall... often.  She never complains though.  It's as if having a face plant were all part of the process for getting from point A to point B.  One simply stands back up and continue on; there is not time to be burdened by such details as discomfort or pain...

However, according to Giraffe Laugh, the "incident" did not meet up with such indifference.  Nope, when Els rammed into the book case, she let them know it hurt this time... And, in their words, "since she never cries, we knew it had to be bad, so we've written up an incident report."

It took a couple days but the black cheek proved that the tears were warranted. And therefore, so was her first incident report.

Dang the luck.

Aunt Ruth and the Colossal Squid

Thursday night dinner with Ruth, Tia and a Pink Squid.

Giraffe Lady

Took The Nut to Day Care (Giraffe Laugh) today and this was the conversation:


Us: We just changed her diaper before we came.


Giraffe Lady: did she poop?


Us: yes, twice.


Giraffe Lady:  Good, because a diaper change with this one doesn't mean anything unless she has pooped.  She eats like a truck driver so it makes sense that she poops as much as she does.  What goes in must come out.

Mini-Me


We all thought it was pretty fun that these two carried on the same facial expressions throughout dinner.  I couldn't just choose one.

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Catch the Wave



Uncle S and Uncle M took toddler E and toddler O to the Beach in McCall. Els was very happy to get her feet...and lower half of her body wet.
