Now here is the rest of the update:
Headline: Elle and Seb Continue to Grow, Be Cute
Daleen surprised Amber and showed up for her birthday. (Accompanied by Amber's uncle Don) We visited the city with them. This is Elle on the Staten Island Ferry, as we passed the Statue of Liberty
Pizza in Times Square: Amber, Don, Gabe/Elle, Daleen
With Grandma Daleen
Dad came to visit after Daleen left. Seb seems to like corny jokes. (Just kidding!)
Seb's blessing: September 30, 2007
Elle and Seb hold hand everytime we get into the car.
We took Elle to the Long Island Children's Museum. This was a news broadcast simulator.
We visited the Queens Farm Museum. Yes, they have those in NYC. Here are some people taking a picture of a real, live chicken.
Picking a pumpkin at the "farm"
We visited DC because Gabe had a conference. Seb loved the hotel pool so much that he fell asleep on Amber's shoulder
King of the Pool!
And... the pool princess
Amber enrolled in a flower arranging class with her friend Heather. Two of her works of art are below.
Haloween! Amber: Russian Spy. Seb: Cute bear, or something. Eleanor: Sassy Tigercat. Gabe: The other Russian Spy.
We ran into Juan Romero (Gabe's home teaching companion and good friend) at a community "Fall Fair" Elle's favorite part was the petting zoo.
Elle wanted to baby-bjorn her doll.
A subsequent fair - Elle still is not too sure she wants to be this close to a horse.
But she will feed the goats.
Swing siblings
Seb thought the stroller was awesome. We did this when Elle was asleep so she wouldn't get any bright ideas.
