Apple Picking

Eliana loved going with us to pick apples. I hope it can become something we do every year as a family. It was actually the first time Ben had been apple picking as well.




More Park Fun

On the teeter-totter with Ben.
Her first trip down the slide

For some reason when she's crawling in the grass she feels she has to lift both her arms and legs extra high.

Too Small To Drive

She's so smart she keeps her hands at "10 and 2"

Maybe the seat should be raised?






Big Girl Bathtub




Eliana is now getting her bath in the big tub. I think the swimming lessons her and I are in together helped her figure out the bathtub really isn't all that scary.

There's Always Next Game

Those poor Badgers. We cheared them on, but they must not have heard us from Madison.

Paper Fun




I'm not sure what it is about Eliana and paper, but she just loves playing with it. We usually don't let her play with it because we don't want her to choke since everything goes in her mouth, but I let her play with it for a bit.

New Games and You Can't Hide Anything From Me

Eliana's new favorite thing to do is take the diapers out of her changing table. She has also learned that we have the couch pillows set up on the floor to hide things she doesn't need to be getting into.

Eliana practices walking

Eliana has done quite well with her push toys. These were taken the week before she turned 9 months. I know she'll be walking on her own in no time. She took two steps a couple weeks ago, but hasn't since.

Eliana Wants Daddy's Food

No more sitting in front of the couch eating our pizza on Sunday nights while we watch America's Funniest Home Videos. (Unless Eliana gets some pizza too)

Wake Up Daddy I Want to Play





Ben had a very busy weekend getting together everything for Octoberfest. All Eliana wanted to do was play when she saw him.
