1. Eleanor is learning to sit up.
2. Eleanor jumps so hard in her Jumperoo that her socks come off.
3. Eleanor has discovered her feet.
She even likes to chew on them :)
4. Eleanor likes to play XBox.
5. Andrew's parents came in town for Easter.
We took them to the John Johnson Farm in Hiram, Ohio. Andrew and I went right before Eleanor was born. And there was something even more special this time around actually having her there with us. It is just a neat place and the spirit is so strong.
It was nice to have someone around to take some family pictures of the three of us. We also were able to take some on Easter Sunday. Andrew had to give a talk, which he was a little nervous about because it was just going to be him, a youth speaker and a couple of musical numbers. He did a great job and we had a lovely Easter Sunday.
6. Eleanor and I went down to Cincinnati to visit my sister Jessica. My mom, little sister and little brother also drove up from Louisiana for their spring break. So Eleanor got to see lots of family. Sadly, the only picture I took was this one of my nephew Ethan. random, right?
I think Jessica got some pictures while we were all out huddling in my mom's van when we got locked out. I'll have to get those from her. **she just updated her blog, click here and scroll down for a picture and story. **
7. Spring has sprung! Both yesterday and today the weather has been awesome!! I was able to dig out some summery clothes for Eleanor.
"no pictures please"
"ok, maybe one or two"
We went to the park and had a BBQ with some friends from the ward. Here is Eleanor swinging on the swings, she was loving it!
And that's about all we've been up to. Next week is Eleanor's half birthday so stay tuned for her 6 month stats and pictures.

The sequence of "toe-toe" pictures are adorable...and I loved the Sunday picture of the 3 of you. Just so sweet...babies seem to smile with their whole bodies.
It was like having dessert after a great meal when the two of you showed up at Jessica's house. It felt so good to squeeze and smooch Eleanor. Good luck with the internship...keep dreaming big 2009!
i can't believe she's almost 6 months old!!! its seems like just yesterday i got the text message and picture that she was born.
cute pictures...grace LOVED seeing eleanor in her easter dress. i'm glad y'all could come down and visit, i know it wasn't fun to drive so long by yourself with the baby.
cute summer outfit, Eleanor!!
she's changing so much! i now think she looks like both you and Andrew.
I like the swing pictures the most. I've seen those faces everyday of her life. It's so funny to see them captured here.
I just love her little chubby wubby cheeks. I just laugh every time I see them in a picture.
I really like the creases in her wrist when she sucks her thumb! We ADORE Eleanor!!!!!
