My little patient

Charlotte was home sick from school yesterday. A bonus for her - her Aurora costume came yesterday, too. She put it on right away. I was happy to find a princess dress that was long sleeved and full enough for her to wear something under it if it is as cold on Halloween as it usually is.



I cropped this one a little funny so that you can see the very edge of my beautiful wallpaper with rocking horse border. All around my family room. At the ceiling and at the chair rail. It's really something.

She made herself useful by tickling Eli to try to get a picture of him smiling. He smiles all the time and it is adorable. Once I duck behind the camera, though, he stops.



Not technically a great image, but look at that little face. I love this one. I was telling Derek the other day how hard I have to strain to imagine that such a little peanut is going to grow into this big guy and be taller than me and everything.
