Saturday, April 30th
Today Mom and Dad came for a visit. It was finally dry enough to till for our garden and plant new trees, so while Josh and Dad went about manlier pursuits, Mom and I got Elaina's 18-month/Easter pictures taken. It was an exercise in exhaustion for all of us--Elaina napped on the way home, and I think both Mom and I would have liked to. But, you can't argue with the results :)

Today Josh made his first attempt to roast corn on his new grill. The results were quite tasty!

Elaina had a rough night tonight, but we've stumbled upon a solution that meets most of her needs. For her first birthday, I made a video of pictures/videos set to the songs "Faithful One" by Selah and "You Cannot Lose My Love" by Sara Groves. I put it on for her one night, thinking she'd like to see pictures of her family, and she sat transfixed for the entire thing. It has become a nightly routine.

Tonight Josh worked in the yard while I played with Elaina on her slide and went for a walk. When we got home, Josh proudly showed me the "yard toupee" he'd created to fill in some gaps in the landscaping.
Thursday, May 5th
Tonight Elaina ate her snack while sitting at the table. This is notable for several reasons, the least of which is not that she sat at the table, not on the table.
Friday, May 6th
Nothing special today, but I noticed Winston hasn't been getting as much face time as Chappu, and that can only be remedied by this:
