For Easter we went down to my Aunt Mary’s house. We planned to get there before we did, but we haven’t quite learned how long it takes to go places with the two of them, especially for the whole day.

We had fun while there, Eloise met some of her Aunts and Uncles and her MomMom the Great! Desmond got to run around and hunt for eggs with the rest of the smaller kids that were there. A good time was had by all, and pictures were taken. So here they are.

Today is Eloise’s one month birthday. It is weird to think that one month ago at this time I was in labor with her. She has fallen into our routine fairly well so far, though her brother is having a bit of trouble with the invader still.

Happy One Month Eloise!

No pictures yet, but she has been smiling for about the past 3 or 4 days. She has also hit awake for part of the day stage , so she actually looks around and plays a bit now rather then just eating and sleeping.

Desmond has actually been fairly good with Eloise and he likes to hug her and give her kisses. I finally caught him on camera giving her a kiss this evening.

So Desmond is at his Grandparent’s house today, so it is just me and Eloise and K-line at home. I let Eloise have some tummy time and took a few picture of her while she was there. So here they are.

So for Desmond’s birthday we went to the National Zoo. He enjoys seeing the animal and it was a gorgeous day out so a great day to go. Apparently a bunch of people felt the same way so it was very crowded, but we still had a lot of fun. Here are some pictures from the trip.

First off on the metro train getting there.

Watching the tiger, he really liked the tiger.

Playing the the Prairie Dog Tunnel play area

It was a good and tiring day!

And now for some Eloise pictures. She slept in the Mei Tai at the playground, but while Desmond was down for his nap we let her do some tummy time. So here she is having tummy time.

Here are the rest of the pictures from today, which are closeups of her face.

So I took a bunch of pictures of Miss Eloise today since I realized I have not taken many/any pictures since the playground more or less. Anyways here some of the pictures of baby girl. I’ll post the rest in the next post.

Here are a bunch of pictures of Desmond walking to the park with me and Eloise, and another bunch of random Eloise pictures.
