It's never too early to start wishing!

Christmas is officially less than 4 months away - so I'm starting Ellie's wish list now.
1. We got a smokin' deal on a play/train table - so now she "wants" a train. It doesn't have to be this one - but any wooden, child safe, lead paint free set would do.
2. What little kid wouldn't want a playhouse? A quick search on craigslist for "playhouse" yields lots of less expensive gently used items.
3. Outfitting a girl with shoes is a costly endeavor, even if you can catch a sale - especially when we were recently advised that their feet grow EVERY THREE MONTHS! So a gift cert from Stride Rite for use on their Outlet Store sales, would be peachy.

More to come!

Tax Day - Anniversary - Birthdayversary

Today is Tax Day - luckily, ours were in a month ago and we already recieved our refunds. What a glorious day! Some good friends of ours are celebrating their 2 year wedding anniversary - yes the wedding was at 10:40 :) And today is Ellie's 14 month Birthdayversary. Sorry I still have not posted pictures, but no one's been asking for them either. I've been busy playing with my snazzy new camera too. So once they are "toddlers" do people get tired of looking at "baby" pictures? Not me, I could look at pictures of my Eleanor all day long. Cheers!

It's the Easter Beagle!

Happy Easter to all. Sorry for the delay in posting. I guess that since the 1 year mark has past - my motivation to post every month on the 15th is fading. :) Pictures to follow at some point. Not very many this month - and in the easter photos Ellie is very sick. Running a high fever, coughing, hoarse, and other sickly things. What a weekend! Oh yeah, and Brad was supposed to be done with Student Teaching - but he's been dragging that out. Maybe someday the unit will be turned in to Mickey and posted to the dreaded TK20, just maybe. One can dream.

Happy Birthday Princess Eleanor Kay Wright!

We love you very much Ellie. Thanks for coming into our lives one year ago and making this the best year of our lives. We didn't realize how much you would change our lives for the better. With love, Mama & Papa.

Here are the Month 12 pics and a special Birthday pic album
and links to other people's online albums of the 1st Annual Elliepalooza.

BEWARE - lots of pics to look at!

Happy Elevensies Ellie!

Today marks Ellie's 11 months of life. How fast this time has gone, but amazingly precious. Enjoy this month's pics. Only 4 more weeks to Ellie-palooza!

Happy 2008!

Happy New Year to all of our family and friends. This year should bring Ellie many more teeth, walking, talking, and lots of new adventures. Not to mention her first Birthday - which is in 6 weeks...gulp!
