Oh my goodness...

Yes, I've gone and done it. Over a month without a post! Well, I'd like to say that we are just too busy enjoying Elinor to take any time out to write about it! But in short, she is doing wonderfully! We all had a couple of bouts of illness in the last couple of weeks, but all is well now! Elinor is a crawling machine and anything that dwells withing 3 feet of the floor is a potential victim of her grabby little hands! She is kept busy pursing her favorite goodies: the dog food bowl, stacks of dvd's, the remote controls, records, books, skeins of yarn, the side table, recycling... You name it, she's tried to get it! She also eats as much as she can and eats anything that she can! She likes it all, but she really seems to like things that have been spiced up a little (Bragg's Liquid Aminos, Garlicky Hummus, Toby's Tofu Pate... everything). Luckily all this crawling and eating has led to two strange things. One is that she may actually take a nap in the afternoon now, and two is that she generally sleeps about 9 hours through the night!!! I can't even tell you how life-changing that has been...

But what, you ask, has brought be out of the family blog hibernation? Wlel our good friends Trisha and Georgia at Unringing The Bell tagged us for a Then and Now, which I can't resist...

Then...
