Elise went on her second hike, slighly longer than the first, and did great in her baby pack! It is so fun to be able to go out with her... she was either looking around trying to spot Luna, chatting and giggling or snoozing back there. What a trooper. It is great having Mission Ridge practically in our back yard.

seven months old
Our little sweet pea is growing up so quickly and is becoming the sunshine in our lives more and more every day. Yesterday marked her seventh month, however it was a grouchy kind of day (lots of teeth coming in as you can see in the photos... perhaps explains the grouchiness, so we had to delay our photo shoot for a day).
Our Elise Ana is now an expert sitter and roller. We often find her in one corner of the room, propped up against the wall unable to escape as she can only roll to the right:) She smiles constantly and absolutely melts my heart with her yelps and screeches. Yet to say anything close resembling mamma or dadda or anything else for that matter... but we are patiently waiting for something.
I have had the opportunity to stay at home with my babe for the past seven months, absolute joy and has been so special. In less than two weeks I start work, three days a week, and Elise is going to be starting at a daycare with three other little girls (2, 3 and 3 months); hope she can show them what a big girl she is and not cry the entire time and hope my heart can handle it.
Love you Elise Ana.
A few more...
Absolutely love spending time with grandma, and greatgrandma to Elise. It is so wonderful having her here.
Grandpa Terry stayed with us the past couple of days and Elise loved snuggling him on the sofa.

girls weekend
While Evan was backpacking in the Napeequa Valley, Elise and I headed over to Seattle for a girls weekend with auntie Lucie and friends. Ahhh it was wonderful to be over on the west side again, especially when the sunshine and ocean were so perfect. I can see many more of these girls trips in the future. Elise was a sweetie in the car, it seems as though we've grown out of the car tantrums... on to new challanges:) Evan had a great time backpacking too... I am sure Quinn has great photos from the trip, can't wait to see.
Back yard photo shoot on Luna's bed.
I just couldn't choose which photos to cut out of this post....we love photos in this family:)
Elise loves Al... they have the red hair/blue eyes going and perhaps look more like mother/daughter :)
Lastly... Elise is surrounded by giraffes and LOVES to chew on the squeeky and plush ones equally!
