eloise: Grandpa taught you how to make a funny noise when you squish your hands together in the sprinklers. Oh Grandpa!

eloise: Dressed in your special sweater and your favorite bee pants, we walk down to the neighborhood park. You are usually pushing one of your babies or wooden animals in your stroller. I ask you if you want to slide? No. How about climb? No. “Swing Mama.” You say. “Squeaky? no.” You point to the swing that Mama doesn’t mind pushing you in (the others are VERY loud and squeaky). I push you. “High Mama.” You say. I push a little harder and you throw your head back into the wind and give me a happy, thankful smile.

eloise: you walk around with the silk over your head, “Way A-ya, A-Eeee?” There she is!! You continue the same game over and over and each time you laugh with joy as if it’s the first time you’ve ever played it.
*you refer to yourself as “A-ya” (Ella) but whenever I say, “Ell-uh?”, you correct yourself and say, “no. A-Eeeee!”

eloise: You started doing this face this week and I had no idea where you got it from, until Gramma pointed out, Ana from Frozen makes the same face.

eloise: your favorite saturday morning spot, riding in the wagon, headed to the farmers market. Usually you’ll ride until you’ve finished your first strawberry and then you want to get out and pull the wagon yourself.

eloise: I liked this photo because it represents our every day. You sitting in your high chair, eating a snack or lunch after a nap. I enjoy this time with you. We usually chat about what we will do for the rest of the day and I usually put on a record for us to listen too while we snack. An every day shot of my every day girl.

eloise: oh you sunshine girl of mine. Cheeks kissed, eyes green and big. Brave to the new explorations of the day. Little voice but strong opinions, Merry maker and milky queen. “Hu-rway” you shout with arms outstretched. It’s going to be good day, because I have you.

eloise: I thought of these lyrics when I saw this photo…
“Sweet Eloise, sing the birds in the trees
When she is near you can hear them
Singing sweet melodies
They’re just for my Eloise.”
