Blocks


Typical to most parents, Matt and I think we have the smartest, most talented baby around. Here's an example of our girl's skills. We got out a set of blocks a month ago that Eleanor got last year for Christmas but we put away since they were so small. I figured she could handle them now. Well a month of playing with them and this girl is building towers almost as tall as herself! We know, we know - she's a genius :)

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...


We put up our Christmas tree (actually we put it up two weeks ago) and Eleanor just loves it. She doesn't mess with it, just points at it and says "tree". She has a couple favorite ornaments such as the Santa that plays Jingle Bells when squeezed. But besides that, she just admires it. We got the tree from my friend. We actually drove to White Pigeon and cut down a tree from Mike and Pam's front yard. We had their permission and paid for it of course :)


After decorating the tree and the rest of the house, Eleanor was wore out. She laid her blanket on the floor next to the tree and next thing we knew, she was out. It was the cutest!
