Our lives on the East Coast


Not much to report. Elsie has been working on popping out a few more teeth. Her second top left poked though a few days ago, and the second top right is still working its way out. She has also learned how to climb up on our bed. Not such a problem if we could just close a door and she couldn't get to it... But even out here in the East our bed is once again in the living room while Elsie enjoys a bedroom all to herself. Constant vigilance is needed to keep my little dare devil from running head long off the side of the bed.

I miss our car, my daily walks, the easily accessible grocery stores, and having Alan home in the evenings with me. This short little adventure is feeling longer and longer as the days go by.

I've kept myself somewhat busy during the long days at home. Since we can't get to a store without borrowing a car, and it is what we would run out of the most, I've been baking all of our bread. While the process isn't hard, it takes a good amount of time to let the dough rest and rise. I'll show you my mad skills when we get home, Katie.
3 1/2 more weeks...

Elsie looks like a little street urchin. (A happy one!)

Hang in there. You'll have fun company the end of the week when Andrew and family arrive.
