Guatemala Girl

Will served his mission in Guatemala about 10 years ago!!! Yes he is that old! While he was there he picked up a trditioal outfit for babies. So here is Elsie all decked out!

Check out this freaky reflection.

Pulling Up

I thought it was neat at first but now she is pulling up on everything. She was all over the house today pulling up on this or that and I captured it all on film. It is amazing how agile she is.

From crawling to pulling up. What's next?

I can't believe it but Elsie has been crawling for 3 weeks now. She started out slow but now can stay up on all fours for as long as she wants. If this was not enough fun for the family she has also started pulling up on things. Here she is pulling up on the tub.

Elder Shumway

Though it might appear that we went to Utah to go to Yellowstone, that is not the truth. We really went to Utah to welcome home Elder Tyler Shumway. He served his mission for the LDS church in Purto Rico for two wonderful years.

A new toy

While in Utah we received one of Elsie's last Christmas presents from her uncle Steven. This one converts from a riding toy to a walking aid. We are sure she will enjoy this present over then next few months. Thanks Uncle Steven!!

a few more photos of Yellowstone

Here are a few of the pictures Julia shared with us and so now we will share them with you. This is the snow coach we rode in...notice the skis in front and the treads in back.
What a happy family.
