Has it really been a month since I last posted? I guess it has.
The last month has been full of fun times. Burnsaniuk flew down to California for some Mahaffey family fun in the sun. We spent a week living the good life in Palm Springs. We soaked up the heat, hit the pools & played at the water park.
Not that they were short on it, but Eleanor & Jackson enjoyed lots of cousie time:
Eleanor tried cereal for the first time. She wasn't so sure what she thought of it, though she enjoyed the process of making a mess with the spoon.
We got to celebrate my dad's birthday with him, which was fun. My mom took us out to dinner & because my dad is the last person on earth who would want to be part of a restaurant birthday scene, she made sure he had one :)
When we got back from Palm Springs, Burnsaniuk went camping to celebrate Sarah's 30th birthday. To make it extra special, Roma and I surprised her with the most embarrassing balloon we could possibly find.
In addition to an embarrassing balloon, I unintentionally baked the world's ugliest cake. It wasn't so ugly before it traveled, I swear...
El was a trooper. She played in her exersaucer...
And hung out with Jackson in the kiddie-tent:
Roma got to fish...
And El-Bell and I got to hang out with Sarah & Jackie...
Oh, and Sarah & Steve unintentionally dress liked twins...
That made the trip extra awesome.
In Ellie news, we went to the doctor yesterday for our (somewhat late) four month check-up. She is now 15 lbs, 12 oz (74th percentile) & 26.5 inches long (96th percentile). She's got two bottom teeth poking through & giving her a bit a grief; but other than that, she's doing great & continuing to bring so much joy to our days.
