Oh!

***Listening to "Oh!" by Eric Hutchinson at the time of blog post, I hate titles***

Just some random cuteness that I had to share.

So the days when Eleanora and I need to be in Lakeville by 8:30am to hang with the Ketchum kids, we have to leave by 7:45. I usually wake up around 7:15, throw on jeans and a t-shirt, throw my hair in a ponytail and get Nora's stuff ready for the day (diapers, snacks, sippy cups) then wake her at the very last minute so she gets as much sleep as possible. I usually pick her up from her crib, change her diaper and out the door we go. I of course have to take her blankie and "pup pups" with, as she can't nap without them. Last week as we were running out the door, she refused to take another step until I gave her her blankie. So I had to take a picture of this scenario. Eleanora in her footsie jammies minutes after waking up, jacket & hat on, blanket in hand ready to go,




Could she be any cuter??



She dragged her blankie all the way down the hall to the car,



Adorable.

So this morning we went to our first ECFL class. It's the same model as ECFE (family together play/fun, then parents separate to have a discussion) but it is through our Church.

As the parents were getting ready to separate, it was snack time. So we sat her down and said goodbye. I had to grab my camera first, it was too precious! Here is Eleanora snacking with her new buddies like a freaking pre-schooler. I just about died the scene was so cute.




Bryce and I really enjoyed the class and meeting new families. Eleanora, being the social butterfly she is, had a great time too. We were only gone for about 50 minutes, but we were so happy to go pick her up from the classroom! She dropped her toy and ran to me with open arms and my heart melted. It was good for all of us.

Afterwards we ate lunch at Snuffy's (milkshakes, yum!) and headed home for a much needed nap. Apparently the girl had run herself ragged playing because she STAYED asleep as Bryce picked her up out of the car. She seriously has never ever done that. She always wakes right up as we open the back car door and starts talking our ear off within 5 seconds. It was precious,



(the matchy matchy father-daughter outfits were not planned!)
