I couldn't resist buying a few toys for Eleanor keep her entertained while visting. She certainly entertained us while opening the packages!
She got a little baby and learned how to give it kisses.
I stayed home with Eleanor while the rest of the gang went skiing at Baker. We had a really good day together. Eleanor took the time to inspect my kitchen quite thoroughly. At least the parts she could reach.
Little Miss Eleanor looked so cute in her new dress! I think she liked her shiny black shoes too. In fact she was dancing around in them so much it was hard to get a picture! Eric did a nice job letting her twirl and bounce to her heart's content.
The decorations were pretty snazzy this year at the Festival of Trees. So many lights and color variations.
And toys and candy.
And Santa and Mrs. Claus too! Adorable.
We had a girl's lunch at Seeds in La Conner. Mmm, fish tacos and amazing desserts.
Eleanor kind of enjoyed the taste of lime.
She even tried sucking the juice from the straw.
What a sweetie pie!
Ok, Cinderella, when you're all done sweeping the floors,
You can go to the Ball!
Grandpa was installing child locks to keep this little lady out of the garbage, and she was so fascinated watching him use those tools.
In fact, Grandpa has lots of cool tools.
Katie wanted to be sure Eric got the chance to change at least one diaper. It was quite a battle of wills between these two. Who would believe a little 19 pounder could hold her own against this strapping teenager. Well, she does! It's quite a trick when she decides she's ready to turn and run!
There she goes!
At last! Success!
We loved every minute with this cutie pie, and can't wait for her to come back!

That dress was super adorable. And, I LOVE how you got Eric to change a diaper. HAhahah.
Where was the festival of trees? Are you excited to talk to devin in a bit?!?!??!
Festival of Trees is in Mount Vernon, it's a fundraiser for the hospital. We've just been a couple of times.
Ya, Eric wasn't too sure about the need for learning to change a diaper, but Katie totally insisted! It was pretty funny!
Yes, super excited to talk to Devin, only this year I think I'm going to get emotional. I can't even think about him without crying right now, it's ridiculous! Does your family get to skype? You get to be there to talk to your brother! That's awesome, he'll love that you're there!
Thanks for taking such good care of my little lady, and of course for showering her with gifts. She has the best grandparents in the world.
